    Default s15 spec s to spec r road car

    Well lads said id put this up here been fairly depressed since I sold my last silvia

    So I said Id try and get an s15 as Ive never had one so looked at a few spec R's but they were all seriously rough really was amazed at how rough they were! So mechanic buddy suggested a spec s conversion so I got some info off people on here mostly and decided it was my best bet, so I bought one off here



    It was completely standard spec s apart from the 18" rotas which suit the colour quite nicely I reckon. So then the hunt for the conversion bits began and after looking and looking I was lucky enough a local lad who I had contacted about an engine said I could take hes silvia so collected it that night was great piece of mind being able to drive the car home instead of picking an engine off the ground





    This had most of the bits I needed including front mount cusco coilovers apex exhaust strut brace wiring loom ecu and all those bits prop shaft etc also had bigger sump the brakes i needed with bigger discs too and manifold

    so then the work began



    Ive skipped a few steps but thats the sr20det in the 15

    cusco coilovers in


    sits a bit better now


    better stopping from white 14 aswell


    Now I started buying bits for it had a standard elbow and downpipe so bought them off japspeed
    the downpipe splits into two and back to one to prvent the problem of the big 3inch pipe being too low and hitting everything


    Also picked up a vertex kit off Drive n Style cheapest I could find


    Got some LED rear lights from Taiwan


    Look well on the car


    One headlight inside was after getting damp and damaged so i split them open and Im still debating what to do go matt black, carbon dip or same colour as car
