Hi from Holland

[Texhnolith]

Hi, I'm Rob from Nijmegen in the Netherlands looking to buy a S15.
Currently drive a '98 S14a but after driving it for 4.5 years I'm interested in a new project.

Some info on my car: http://www.wanganwarriors.com/blog/index.php/texhnoliths-car/

 

[meddler]

Very nice. Welcome.

 

[Alex De Large]

Welcome!

Good luck on your search for an S15. You have some sweet parts on the S14a. Loving the Brides.

 

[Texhnolith]

Those lovely brides have now been sold.
S14 is up for sale as well. Volks to be sold separately.

All this since I will be picking up a S15 Spec S in Ireland this friday.
Driving it home to Holland where I will immediately start taking out its engine.
Lots of plans for it. And not a Spec R engine conversion

I will have some proper pics of the car on Sunday I suppose before anyone asks.

Picked it up

And next to its older brother at home after 1400km of driving it.

[Texhnolith]

Hi,

18″ 8.5J ET30 Front
18" 9.5J ET35 Rear

They are up for sale at 1900 euro.
With tires (will come with as new set of Falken FK452 for the rears)

Whats the kit you have on the S15?

It looks like a Vertex kit.. But yours is a lot more square in some places than mine. More-so the gaps where you would see the intercooler piping and along the bottom of the front bar.. Is it a different version of Vertex? Or another brand? :s

 

[Texhnolith]

Either Uras Type 4 or Type 5, not entirely sure.

 

[JDM_S15]

Ahhh k.. Understandable as Uras is similar to Vertex in some ways.. Looks clean either way.

 

[Texhnolith]

I prefer the vertex kits I will eventually sell this kit once all other stuff is done.

 

[spoonman]

be original............put a 13b in it

 

[Texhnolith]

that would be orginal. But im a left handed IT guy
So prefer a swap that is simple.

Finally some proper progress.
