Lewis's Nissan 200sx S14a..18/03/2015 - Updated 2015..


Recommended Posts

So i dropped by the paint shop last week to see what progress was like on the slut.

Starting to be prepared for paint ! Apparantly, i had a massive dent in the roof! This was news to me.. its amazing what they pickup without you ever realising there was a mark there!!

I'll swing by after work to see if its in primer yet hopefully it will be!

I also went to a local meet where they had stands etc.. Corbeau bucket seats hosted it. Ended up spening a fair whack in one of the stands.... whoops!

and lastly, this is due to be fitted once the slut returns home! 3" Turbo elbow. So i'll be 3" from turbo back. Moaar Noizzeeee!

Full exhaust makes a huge difference on these like night and day and the noise epic

It did make a different i must admit. But, the turbo>manifold gasket has died and I've been driving a week with a MASSIVE blow as it was going in the bodyshop. So once that's sorted im sure ill feel the full difference!

gonna look sweet mate was thinking when first seen this wtf lol but going in the right direction for sure!!!

some grid drifts would look nice on this

Yeah grids is what i want. But in 17/18" they are extortionate! But, i want them for sure! I think i'll have to sell my Mrs's!

Then, Saturday morning it was time to do my FMIC. It took literally 10 hours. The forums usually say its a day and a half as its an absolute nightmare to do..(It was...)

Fitted perfectly no bumper trimming and didnt have to remove to foglights to cater for the FMIC pipework which i was happy with.

I also chucked 2 of my friends 18" Grid Drifts on to see if i liked them. I can safely say i WILL be buying these as soon as i can!!!

Colour looks awesome!! Reckon 18" looks a bit big though imo. And rota grids are as common on these as any other japanese car :p suprise us with something new ;)

I agree/disagree. I do like the grids and no other alloy appeals to me on any car i own!

What its like compared to your glanza? Dont know wether to finish the glanza at 230bhp or sell up now and buy a s14 or a soarer

Scary. Its got bolt ons, but unmapped. This will come soon. (So its 200bhp standard) probably about 210bhp with whats been done.

In the wet, i will only drive if i have too! Even with Prada's its a a slut to drive around a corner! Its not as fast as my starlet, but it will keep pulling right up to 155mph where its limited. Stage 1 will unlimit this and it will go on until the 170+

Overall its a beast of a car, and not in the same league as the starlet. Although, for suprising people the starlet ticked that box. If i had known how much i would love this car, i would've of gone from a Type-R to a glanza, i would've got one of these!
