Hi Guys,

I have been offered a S15 NA Auto. Now because of the price it has been offered to me, it leaves me the opportunity to do a manual conversion. :nod:

May do even an engine transplant at a later date, but getting it to manual is the 1st hurdle.

Now I have full running gear from a S14 NA. Do I have enough major parts from the S14 to do the swap?

I know I will need a S15 NA 5p ECU also and S15 interior trim, dials etc.

Anyone have a specific list?

Thanks

Its most likley to be very much the same as on an s14.

Phatbob has collated the details on the conversions from various sources, so his web site would be a good starting point.

I don't think you will need a new ecu (on the s14 you don't)

Seems like a do-able conversion then.... You may see me with a S15 in the very near future!

you got a url for phatbob?

Cheers!

This is his website so you could contact him directly , he is on here quite often as is build is own s14 track weapon out of an auto s14

I belive that royston is going to start doing the s14 conversions soon , might be worth asking him about the conversion as well.

You might as well do the sr20det conversion at the same time, would save a lot of future hassles :) and give you some power to go with the looks :D

All being well I should have my new S15 tonight!!! :)
It's nicely sorted with 17" Kosei Alloys (cr@p marshall tires though) and Nismo suspension, HKS Silent Hiper zorst. Got horrible ETECH Chav rear wing on it that I will remove and re-paint the boot lid with the bodywork it requires. (just re-paint bumper, new light cluster and a dent in the rear quarter).

This car has caught me off guard, had no plans to get one, but now I got 13,14 and 15! :D

Now I got to plan the mods.... I think I will get the whole S15 SR20DET incl 6sp box from Japan and drop it in. Maybe not now, but during 2005.

I just checked Ebay, and yes it's the same car!
I got it now and just looked through the V5 and it's had 4 owners since it's been in UK not 1 as stated. However, I have known the car for over 12 months and actually supplied the HKS zorst....

He part ex'd it for my Mugen Civic with some money. An offer I could not refuse. lets hope the car is clean and does not give me grief!
