How's it going! New S15 Owner (Proud Owner!)

[kenny421]

Hello Everyone,
Names Kenny, I'm 20 years of age and reside in Dublin, Ireland. Have just purchased a 1999 Silvia S15 Spec R. Very new to the whole RWD scene in general. Always wanted an S15 but them being usually 20k and above i thought it would be a long time untill i got one!
Until i found this! Here's the spec and few pics:

1999 Silvia Spec R 2 litre Turbo
Gunmetal Grey
58000 miles/93000 km's
18" Leasing Alloys
Full Cat Back Exhaust
Blitz LM Filter
SARD Dump Valve
Cusco Coilovers
Momo Steering Wheel
Veilside Gearknob
Carrerozeira (can't spell it) Double DIN CD/MD Player
Ganador Wing Mirrors

Fairly Standard apart from that!

What do you guys think? I must say i'm delighted with the
car and am looking forward to having a gander around the
site and getting as much info from you guys as possible!

Big shout to s15andy.s for reffering me here! :thumbs:

even though gunmetal grey is basically what it is, for some reason nissan have called the colour 'pewter silver'......

Yeah would they do this?? Its not a very sexy name now is it!

It'd be like calling something like "Nighthawk Black" something like
"Coal Black" or "Nighttime Black" ha:rotfl::rotfl:

And yes Pearl White is another lovely colour but i had a Gun Metal
Grey EK4 Civic before with Bronze Gram Lights and awh god i loved
that car, such a sexy colour combination! :thumbs:

WTTC nice looking car, any plans for it?

WTTC nice looking car, any plans for it?

I'm literally only after getting it and being only 20 i'm fairly broke!:rotfl:

Think i'm just going to enjoy it for a month or two then in the new
year start the modding!

Few plans include:
Fit a Turbo Timer (as theres none)
Front Mount Intercooler
Might change the wheels
Front lip
Maybe 2 more supportive Bucket Seats

Anyone have any other suggestions?

 

[slammedmind]

id suggest an alarm at the top of that list and sooner rather then later man, s15's still attract too much unwanted attention . Nice motor all round and hope you have fun with it

Sorry, yes was only thinking mods! First up is definately a mighty
alarm, snap off boss kit and a kill switch!

NOBODY is getting there hands on this! :rotfl:

Cheers for the welcome anyway, i actually cannot wait to get
my hands on it, will be prob picking it up tomorrow or Thursday
....I'm actually itching with excitement can't wait to get my
hands on her!

This is definately my best Christmas present, all paid for by me!
It's the only way really!

Hi & WTTC :wave:

Pewter is certainly a popular colour.

Enjoy, and take it easy in this winter weather when you first get her.

Seen too many people crash them shortly after collection

All to easy to get the rear out in the wet

Safe driving.

 

[sushiming]

welcome to the forum yeh as ppl have said taking care when driving as winter is coming

 

[Trial_S15]

Welcome to the club lad, gorgeous car (love the despoilered Aero kit). I'm an n/a S15 driver and even I need to take her handy on the filthy greasy Irish roads, well may you wear :thumbs:

 

[mint]

Welcome to the club homes, Pewter's the quickest too
