hi there im new to here and already chuffed as i never knew this was here i kinda found it by accident i am fairly new still to my s15 although not to nissans as i have had many 200sx's and am still using my s13 for competiton drifting and using the s15 for everyday which i have already decided i am never going to part with, just plan to make even better still

Welcome to the club :wave:

Got any pics / specs??

 

[roachey]

hi there cheers guys dont have a pic yet but will get on it soon, i have plans for this though still trying to decide what more to do with it. i recently have a full D-max kit for it with Siebon bonnet and rear wing with D1 rota Drifts but i think the colour is going to change from the grey to something else but still flipping through the colour charts

 

[subzero]

welcome along mate, pics of both cars . cool to have 2 neeesans and get best of both worlds.

 

[roachey]

when i get the pics going i could show you the S14 i had done also which wasnt to bad with the full URAS kit also but had recently sold that on to fund these bad boys for next years EDC championship

 

[Andy]

Your S15 is a bitty gay manny, my 180sx kicks it's arse.

My S15 is total gay right now but I'll show you!!!!

 

[roachey]

ha ha your a toooool but my number plates better on my car than the one on yours, oh wait your 15 dosnt have one heh heh.

 

[Andy]

but do you have JDM number plate surrounds? Well do you????

 

[roachey]

ooooh you didnt just go there!!!

 

[Andy]

:nod: yeah but that doesn't make me THAT GUY :wack:

 

[roachey]

no but your current drivetrain does:ghey:

 

[Andy]

Ooooh you went THERE! That does it, I'll drop the blacktop in with one of your (many) gearboxes. In fact would you buy the 180sx as a shell so I could straight drop in the engine and transmission from that? That would put your gas at a peep.

 

[roachey]

we will have to discuss min? me have the 180 rolling shell?

 

[Andy]

Aye min, it would be the quickest easiest way to get my S15 on the road/track. I'd thought about it before but with Agra having a massive waiting list I think it is the best option.

 

[roachey]

well well manny if your serious but i thinks your on a bonkers winding me up trip if you arent let me know and we will talk ££££ ice baby

 

[Andy]

Nah manny, if you think about it swapping transmissions/engines and selling the 180sx as a shell is defo the simplest easiest way. I don't need 3 cars and I know the engine/running gear from the 180sx is solid as a rock. So get the S15 up running and road legal and take things from there. You at the garage tomorrow? I'll be up.

 

[roachey]

ha ha yeah i will be there tomorrow, fitting the trimings back into the s15 (pics shortly) i can see a couple of people who may try to talk you out of that idea and both of them are at the garage. However we can see what happens but if you had said this earlier i may not of had the s15 but then who am i kidding i cant get enough of them silvias

 

[Andy]

Haha you do love them silvias To be honest you getting an S15 took me by surprise, I thought you were after a kick ass 180sx, which is why I didn't tell you this idea before.

I can see why a few folk might think that an engine/transmisiion swap is not the way forward, especially as it involves you doing something cool with the shell however it does make sense to me, as I will have a cool S15 in less time and cheaper than if I waited to get one of the other engines sorted.

 

[roachey]

it does sound like it has been thought out for a little while, so i cant argue with you logic. Now i am wondering what i would get for an s15 with no headlights and bonnet as i would put them on the Drift car like i always wanted and put that engine we were speaking about in the 180sx. Now look what you've done
