Then headed down to DAL's on saturday to get the coilovers fitted, engine oil changed and gearbox oil changed. I forgot the oil filter so will do that at home once the snow stops.
Got the car straight in the garage and on the lift, the road upto DAL's was brilliant as it was pure ice so lots of oversteer on the way in :D.
Once the car was on the ramp Pablo noticed a nice puddle of anti-freeze on the floor....bugger I've got a leak, more on that later.

Next up will be to fit the new steering wheel when it finally turns up.
Then i'll be getting the front arch's rolled as they seem to rub a fair amount at the moment, even on full lock which sucks donkey balls.
Cars looking good Daz! Loving its new stance. I need to come visit you guys soon, i need a Nissan back in my life. Been regretting the sale since i saw it drive off :(
I would like to say a MASSIVE thanks to DAL for all the help yesterday with making everything go so smoothly.
Also a massive thanks to Pablo for lending me his 25mm spacers to get the wheels to fit, will get those back to you asap buddy.
I would thank MEL aswell but I can't think of anything helpful that he did other than taking me to get the food for everyone :D.
i know im employed now and work for a big bank so nissan coming end of the year i hope, will have to catch up soob buddy
Fantastic looking s14a, looks well with the new coilovers... have you any issues with tyre rubbing on the rear arches!
The coilovers have made a huge difference:nod: Love it:thumbs:
Cars looking really well now you washed it, loving the clean car in snow pics Shame about the bit of snow flicked up on the rear wheels, shop it out :thumbs:
The videos arent very long :(

Looking very nice mate, great effort by all involved! Car looks great against the snow!!
Cheers Aj

thanks Chris
Cheers Pablo. Post the videos up, it was cool. Shame there isn't a video of me though :(
I wasn't but the ride height was pissing me off so decided to just take the plunge and get it over with. Fingers crossed I can run this height daily :D
meh, its good enough haha.
Thanks.
Oh, ok then :) This is what we had to contend with to get to DAL's. We did go back out a few times through the day, but only to warm ourselves back up and make sure the road was still passible...........honest :wack:
