[lady89]

what make is the wing?

I couldn't tell you bud since this came from Japan with her. But seems to be the genuine version anyway (considering the amount of msg's I get of people who want to buy it of me )

Nice work keeping the look, all it needed was a freshen up, well ware !

Thanks you recognize the side skirts? :P

Lovely example of a zenki 14.
Always loved this one.

Thanks
you might as well have seen me in Killarney in case you were up as well

thanks buddy




On another note:

Next plans:

-spraying and fitting my new front bumper (paint getting matched up as we speak)
-getting a badass alarm (currently researching which one I'm going for)
-getting a nice radio/sound system. I know how that sounds but I do love my music!

and of course:

MANY MANY road trips!!

As far as i know murray motorsport have the contract for samco im sure there are other places to get them tho cuz you will pay top dollar in murrays looks deadly aswell man

I know rm performance in killarney had them hoses in stock a bit back. They were expensive though I taught....

Got my new rad (more to that later) and stuck now that way

Being in the driveway with almost no tools and this... the joys!
Must see now how i can fit the valve (that goes on that pipe bit) so it wont get stuck against the rad.
Have no movement with the pipes because otherwise it wont work with the intercooler....
could have been so much easier without that stupid restricted pipes ha

[lady89]

Sorted!!
finished replacing the rad yesterday evening, took a test drive and all was good.

Driving to work today (after over a week not having her out) was such a blast
As it says per Japspeeds site, it does keep it cooler than a standard rad, my standard water temp gauge is acting up now but still have an accurate one additionally so can see the current temperature.

Will post more pics later this evening!

[lady89]

Well well well,
it has been a little while since i updated this here.

With the new year, i try to do better and keep this a bit more updated.


The last year has been fantastic car-wise and after I got all sorted (which also includes a brand new exhaust system), i got the car NCT'd and had a wonderful time driving it.

I have a few new plans ahead but cant share too much right now.

The current situation is, that the S14 is parked up for the winter, so i will start taking stuff apart shortly.

I will also start posting some bits from our Japan trip last September so stay tuned for that also

One of the latest pics for ye:

I'd be in the same position as yourself. I learnt everything I know by working on cars in the evening or weekends. What I find most frustrating is having to correct others bad work previously carried out on the car. I find it will never be done to your standards unless you take the time to do it yourself. Seat rails are the most annoying thing in the world to get right

good to hear im not the only one
I was lucky enough that way tho, not too much messed up by previous owners and there also wasnt many before me in Ireland, at least thats fine haha

[lady89]

Does anyone else know this feeling that starts to creep in when you book the car for NCT?
The sudden pressure and stress??
hahahah just booked the car for the 26th March so there is no more excuses anymore!

Also here a pic of one of the yummy parts i got within the last year or so, a Japspeed sport cat! Probably being sold soon since i got a complete new Japspeed exhaust system in the end
