| So..
After a bit of a search, I've managed to find a Nissan S14 with SR20. It sits on 17" Rota wheels and has some light changes to the engine with sport oil and cooling, and a sport intercooler.
The seller is a guy by the name of 'Document One' and we're in contact to try and arrange the shipping of her over to me.
Can't wait to see her arrive, and then get down to business and draw up some plans on what we can do with it as well...

| So here she is, the new S14 in my life after my recent purchase from 'Document One'. Shipping was arranged pretty quick and once on shore in Japan, we used a local pick up to get her into base at our garage in the Aokigahara forest. The base is pretty good and gives us a good stand point to work with. I think we have decided at the Roughsmoke Tuning shop, that we'll primarily tune to her towards a street variance for track use to see what times we can achieve, but something that allows us to switch easily to drift for those fun days as well. Just 24 hours after arrival, we set off with the car after some initial checks over to the Tsukuba circuit to lay down some numbers to see what we had as a starting point. Some light runs and for a low C class car with only sport springs and air filter, she managed a 1:08.545 which is ok. The picture above was taken in one of the runs. We'll keep everyone updated with the build, and we do have some plans to run some Battle Evome events in the future. Later. | |

| You can also edit your main post at the top of the page.
If your on a computer there should be a button that says Edit at the top right of the post.
If your on a phone, find somewhere on the main page where it says, Classic Version and then do the same as you would do on a computer. | |

| Well my dear Mr. Cougar.. You didn't have to wait to long at all... On the way back from Tsukuba we had already started to map out the way forwaed for the car, and as with most builds we've undertaken in the past the springs and dampers provide a massive stepping stone into the direction we wanted go. A quick phone to Haruguchi-san of 326-Power and we had aquired a set for all for corners. 326-Power springs and coils give you 26-way adjustable damping, with approx a 8kg/6kg spring rate which is ideal for the s-chassis. With high durability and with great damping force, coupled with the fact they offer up to about -6 degrees in negative camber (although we normally only go up to 5) means these are great for track, drift, or show.. But combining some form with function, we also went out and splashed the cash on some Advan RGII rims, whcih saves us about 3lbs over the Rota's, and wrapped them Yokohama Sport Variant rubber to complete the look as well as providing better performance on each post. Of course testing is a given, and a few short runs around the great corners of the Fujimi run and we could tell the difference straight away. Here's how she looks now, and i'm sure you'll agree - already a improvement!
