    Nissan Silvia spec R

    in reality I probably only made 2k max on the s15 when you consider what I’d spent on it but still a lot better than a loss! 8k is what they should still be, do you regret getting rid of yours besides the financial aspect? Without a doubt better for the uk roads. Much more modern, comfortable...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Bought for £13.5k approx 4 1/2 years ago sold it for 22k, needed some work on the strut towers at that. Rare occurrence to make money on a car for sure!

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Forgot a picture of the engine bay. Cars come from Scotland where the previous owner had a lot work done. Forged engine with cosworth headgasket, supertech valves, 1050cc injectors, precision turbo, rcm breather kit amongst the long list. glad they kept it looking original as opposed to what...

    Cheers mate. Indeed they did, not too sure what else may have been upgraded as opposed to regular models. Was going to get a yellow spec c but couldn’t justify the extra cost

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Don’t miss the s15 one bit, I think the hype around them is way bigger than what it should be, was a fun car to drive like a nob but any other time it wasn’t pleasant on the awful roads we have. Build quality isn’t great either, as to be expected within reason with a late 90’s car but no...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Had my time with the Silvia but fancied a change for various reasons. Had it mapped to 300bhp and was a fun car but I’d done what I wanted to the car other than paintwork which didn’t seem viable and quickly got bored. Sold the car privately and acquired a new vehicle. Very different car but...

    Home cctv and phone apps? recommendations please!

    Always better to position them on corners to reduce blind spots. On the Side of a house for example I usually install one on the front corner looking down to the back of the property and one on on the back corner looking to the front of the property, house layout and size dependant of course...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Cheers mate. Do love rpf1s and not too bad price wise, I did want to replace the white te37s with bronze ones but couldn’t justify the price they go for in good specs. anything ford, or Japanese seems to be good investments. I wasn’t particularly bothered about its value to start with but makes...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Thanks man! Cheers! They have, in comparison to a lot of other jdm cars of the same era. I think the tail lights show it’s age slightly but not a big fan of the aftermarket options.

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Cheers man! Prices are crazy now, I bought mine for £13k so got in before the massive increase. Spec R’s seem to go for anything between £20k-30k at the minute! I’d love a s203 subaru but believe they’ve skyrocketed as well

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    The s15 has looks abit different now. sold the rays te37s as the fitment wasn’t great with them being more Honda specs. Was also fed up of constantly cleaning white wheels. Fitted some genuine oem skirts. Replaced them with some brand new enkei rpf1s. Over done on many cars but not often seen...

    JDM import advice and experience

    They were great to start with and couldn’t be more helpful to be fair but once a car was secured it declined from then on. Also had a friend have some issues with purchasing parts. I have seen people make complaints about most uk importers mind.

    JDM import advice and experience

    If I was to import again I would go with either torque gt or Jm imports. Had a few issues with the company I used which tarnished the experience abit.

    that’s good to know, will take a look at their range for the Silvia as I’d like to replace all the bushings gradually. Did you get an oem column bush or the updated metal ones?

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Have looked at the hardrace stuff a few times but was never sure what the quality is like. Have you got any of there parts on yours? The lower arms now have superpro bushes in, not sure how far I’ll go in terms of upgrading/ replacing bushes and suspension components as I want to keep it road...

    cheers guys! Nearly got it how I want it to look just needs aero skirts. i only fitted the apexi for aesthetics if I’m honest over the blue greddy filter it had previous Wouldn’t mind the aero front bumper but don’t fancy paying the £1200+ premium they now command! Aero skirts and rear spats...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Cars changed slightly, always wanted a set of genuine te37s and a set came up at a good price so had to snap them up. also imported from japan a garage defend carbon cooling panel and an apexi induction kit to smarten the engine bay. Got another visit to slide motorsport for a few bits...

    Got myself a megane.

    Probably not more expensive now as I’m knocking on 25 but there was around a £300 price difference if I remember when I was originally looking for one. I put that down to age I guess as I was 21 at the time do miss the 172 though, would love to own it again.

    Got myself a megane.

    The plan was always to sell it once I received my s15 from japan but kept it in the end as it’s such a great car and became quite attached to it. The recaros were great for a road car if I’m honest particularly with the lowered frames mine had but it’s getting used more for Trackdays and found...
