S15 from Spec S auto to Spec D - Drifting forum

**Mitch** · 06-05-2007, 14:33

Well, the 180 has moved on to pastures new, so I thought I'd need something to keep Team Driftgarage busy

This is how I got it...

Wheels were weak, so the Advan Sienas were drafted in...

Headlights were looking a bit tired and I had a new set sat around, so fitted them...

Someone has fitted Dynamat to the boot and doors, so that'll be going soon...

Popped up to EP Racing to pick up Bruno's bumper, and they had this in stock

Just needed to lose the

mesh and swap it over. It's just sat in place at the minute, but seems to be a good fit. Cheers Jeffrey

Watch this space for the manual conversion tomorrow. Big thanks to Lord of the Chavdance Mark for sorting and delivering the gearbox and Phil for providing the flywheel and gearlever surroundy bit

**Mitch** · 07-05-2007, 16:48

Hahaha

Well, it's just about manual now, just a couple of bits to put on-prop, gearstick etc.

I'd just like to thank Bruno and Polo Paul for their help today. Cheers fellas

Ed · 07-05-2007, 17:59

Good work Mitch, you dont take the easy route with your projects do you

(ie Auto 180SX then NA Auto S15)

Looking forward to seeing this develop

TaxiDori · 07-05-2007, 20:00

I so really want one of these but they're just out of my budget right now. This looks like it'll be real good tho.

What you doing enginewise? S14 SR20? Turboing, the DE?

Yeah, I do like a challenge

I'll be putting an S14 engine in rather than turbo the DE, as I reckon it'll be less hassle.

Just feels soooooooo slow with the DE in, but sounds really nice with the Apexi exhaust on
