    My 1999 White Spec R

    I had this thread in 'introduce yourself' back in 2011 when I brought my S15. http://forum.s15oc.com/threads/8337-Wannabe-S15-owner I am starting this thread to update about the car. I have done a few more trackdays, solved a few minor issues, and this year I have started making more mods...

    White S15 on A4074 near Wallingford few weeks ago, on two separate occasions

    White turbo without rear wing. Jap can tailpipe and I could hear dump or recirc noise on liftoff. I was in my green Primera GT (SR20DE) both times. First time I overtook a car the S15 overtook to follow for a bit. Now my primera is in the shed and I am driving my White Spec R, often near...

    Does knock sensor fault pull timing and reduce boost?

    Had my spec R since March 2011. Engine and breathing all standard until a week ago. Since maybe November it has not been making standard boost and has felt quite flat and a bit unresponsive on the throttle. I have spent a lot of time looking for boost leaks, and last week fitted a new blitz...

    Hoses for Fitting R33 GTR Brembos?

    Hi, I picked up a set of brembo calipers (front and rear) removed from an R33 GTR skyline last week. The rear calipers have a bracket holding a short piece of brake pipe that goes into the caliper body with a brake pipe union, and has another brake pipe union into a block onto the end of the...

    ADM/NZ S15 turbo differences to JDM

    I have just been looking at my friends copy of 'Forced Induction Performance Tuning' by A. Graham Bell. I believe the author is Australian. The book contains a bit about the gains they made to an S15 turbo by just making breathing mods (intake and exhaust). According to the book their car had...

    handbrake lever feels loose....

    Had to change my brake pads before heading home from a track day recently, ever since the handbrake lever can be pulled all the way up without the feeling of it tightening up. The rear brakes do come on a bit when you do this but it does not hold strong. I can't get to the bottom of this - any...

    Intercooler advice - location against condensor/rad possibe?

    Was wondering whether anyone has put an intercooler further back than most kits, up against the front of the air con condensor, sat in the slightly U shaped front chassis structure, behind the upright with the bonet catch on it. There looks to me to be a big space for one here - I also believe...

    undersealing recommendations plz - Berks/Ox/Surrey/WestLondon

    As title - my S15 spec R has been in the country since Jan 2010 and has not had any extra underseal applied and I think I should get this done, particulary as my other car needs some work and so I might be driving the S15 more than I would like this winter. Anyone recommend anyone to get this...

    Rear Brake Piston gaiter

    I have just noticed one of my rear brake rubber gaiters around the piston has come away from the caliper body end. I have damaged it trying to work it back in. Anyone know if you need to rebuild the caliper to refit this? Anyone know if you can buy just the piston gaiter? From Nissan? I assume...
