My pearl s15

[bigk20]

I picked up my s15 last weekend and I absolutely love it.
I got it from sva Imports and they were brilliant, the car wasn't in the best way when I went to see It but when I picked it up they had sorted it completely.

Car has a few mods
Black bride bucket seat
Big fmic
Apexi intake
Rays ce28n in bronze
Very very f***ing hard coilover which will be going
2 way diff
Bigger front brakes I was told there r32/33 brakes not 100% on that
Momo steering wheel
Trust greedy titanium exhaust system which sounds amazing

I love the car its really fun and Very easy to go sideways because of the diff
Coming from a 350bhp charged civic it feels quicker than that all ready but maybe the less weight and more torque.

Here's a couple of pics

And a couple of the charged civic that will be going next weekend

Welcome to the club mate

 

[Surfing Boris]

Two stunning motors, the S15 is much better though

Great spec on the car as well. What coilovers do you have if they are so hard?

 

[bigk20]

Thanks
Haha there a lot different
The civic is very track focused and bloody quick around b roads pulled on a good few Porsche's and ruined a few middle age men's days haha

The S15 has always been a dream car and I just went for it so glad I did
I'll double check the brand of the coilovers tomorrow they work well but just to much for me

I have HSD's and they're perfect for what I need.
I daily mine and have the odd hoot/piss about.

 

[bigk20]

Sounds good do you know what spring rate they are?
Meisters seem to be 8kg front and 6kg rear
Think that's should be okay

They're 7 and 5's on the HSD's I think!

 

[LiamB91]

I've got apexi N1 coilovers on my S15 8kg/6kg spring rates, and they feel very nice, no too harsh and not too soft.

If money aint a problem maybe look up Ohlins

So I got my work wheels delivered this week

Was really happy with them until I looked closer at one and there was a tiny imperfection on the front of a spoke
I wouldn't normally be bothered but at over a grand I thought I'd send it back
Not sure if I'm being to picky

Some nice parts coming into this build and just for peace of mind your perfectly in the right with the wheels mate. If you've bought something brand new then it should be in new condition (that does not include chips on the wheel) I had a Nardi wheel bought for Christmas and wasn't happy with the stitching on it. The one part was stitched too far up and between the wheel and the stitching there was a gap. At first i thought ah it will be alright but then was like hang on a £200 steering wheel should be perfect so sent it back and got a replacement which now is perfect
