Almost the slowest s14a build in history!!

Thought it was about time to get on with the s14a.

Started with changing it from auto to manual and then one idea led to another. And one year down the line iv started building me monster!!!

This is when i took it off the road:-




Front mount, modded front bumper, full 3" stainless, and a few other bits and bobs.


The engine:-



Exterior was standard, this was a real street sleeper!!

Now spent the last 6 months living on beans on toast, spending wages on lots of shiney bits in the quest for 500 ponies and a cool looking motor.

Let the madness begin!!

More Pics to follow. This may take sum time!!!

Well. been very busy! got tyres fitted, they look good but me thinks the rear wheels will need spacing out 10-15mm.

Cant show a pic of fronts as they dont fit until i get longer studs and a lil spacer, dam coilover gets in the way


Also picked up this header tank supposed to be made for the s14/s14a, i could not for the life of me work out where it was intended to go, it dint line up with anything so moved a few bits and modded the brackets and now it sits nicely, but now thinking of tubbing the arches. Good idea???


Also got me a rear brace. that fits!!




Also got front upper and rear lower braces, but they can wait till i work out wot else i wanna do!!

Roll on PAY DAY!!!
