View Full Version : dougs s14
well heres some pics of my s14 some of ye may know it!
ive got some nice plans for it to make it my own, i usually buy standard then build my own way but had a look at this and i was happy with it!
ive a few plans for it,
i picked up a set of recaro a8 seats which wer a nice find gettin them retrimmed at the moment,
ill be doing a few bits to it over the next small while, ive a front mount to go on then ill be changing injectors,turbo sort some managment, some brakes and some adjustable arms not 100% sure what yet though. i tend to keep a car like new any rattles or squeeks annoy me so ill be changing a few bits to have it perfect
it has hks coil overs, hks exhaust system and some form of a 2way thats about all worth while saying,
ive the gram lights gone off it as im sorting out some better tires for them so have a cheapo set of enkies on it now

That car was gorgeous up at citywest, however the way you bought it is only a fraction of how good it was back then... i know this as i was at citywest with my old s14a on the stand accross from your latest purchase and i went to look at that car 2 weekends ago with a friend of mine , to say our time was completely wasted is an understatement..
he reckoned he had no insurance and wouldnt meet us a bit closer to the west, so we came all the up from mayo to do a swap.... when we got there ,he had insurance
he then proceeded to bring us on a wild goose chase for nearly half an hour round tallaght towards lucan,
eventually we got there, he just abadoned the car out on the road and expected us to look at it there..... which i ended up having to
the interior was wrecked, one bolt holding in the passenger and drivers seat, some interior pics missing,
rust in the passenger side turret, power steering pump on deaths door, oil was like it wasnt serviced in about 30k miles
then the boot wouldnt open, to which he said- if you pull forward the drivers seat you can get into the boot through the back seat!!!! wtf is that about! he was a pure chancer
all of the above would be fine, if he told us that on the phone before we went, but he had us informed the car was "mint-, which is an overused word in irish culture imo, but thats neither here nor there
needless to say we didnt do the deal and proceeded home to mayo, then i see when he sold the car to you he put up on his add " SOLD, THANKS TO THE TIMEWASTERS"...... and all he was was a timewaster, and a lier..
anyhow, best of luck with the car, and hope you bring it back to former glory and look after it better than the previous owner
That's a beaut. We need better pictures with the first set of wheels, from what I see they look pretty darn cool!

that car has great great protentual really does mate
best look with her :):):):):)
cant wait see her looking back to her best :):)
cheers for the comments lads!
as for the problems the seats are fitted correct now lol but have new ones orderd,
id a good look about the car alright and its not a minter but its not gona take too much to get it there! i plan on havin it better than it ever was!
oh forgot to mention about the boot the latch was pushed down took me one min to fix it haha
just checked the "rust that sideways simon mentiond and its not on the turret when you said that i taught i mised some thats part is an easly replaced section if the rust was bad but luckly i poked an prodded it and a good repair will have it 100%" cheers though and service is happining this week, lucky enough any bad points in the car can EASLY be bolted off and new shiny ones fitted in its place, after all its a 16yr old rwd car lol
so far ive done very little with it.. ive some new seats gettin retrimmed,
still have to fit new front mount.
the rays wheels are off gettin refurbed but im half thinkin on some new wider wheels or some spacers to get them right flush. the rays are 17" 8.5 on the front and the rears are 9.5" any ideas one some nicer wheels for it about the place?
ive a few plans for the car, im not 100% happy with the paint work as its dry in places ect so in the next few months a respray is possible.
im also wanting to see about 320ish brake.
any one have any parts of interest for sale?
id like a bolt in cage also..
cheers for the comments!
