    Time to get rid of my S14a (suspect big end's failure!)

    Hey guys,

    Pretty gutted to put this up, I have been on here and owned this car for nigh on ten years now, but I'm just clinging onto it really.

    I suspect my S14a has got a rather serious case of knocking. Sounds very much like big end failure to me. I need the car gone, it's been off road for the best part of three years now and I have a shiny R32 GTR to pump money into instead. Plus I need to store the car at work, and can only try the boss's patience for so long.

    It's a T reg, 86k on the clock and has lots of nice bits on it including brand new Falken Ziax tyres and an unpainted Vertex replica kit. It does have a few months MOT and no tax but I really don't want to start / drive it so you probably want a trailer to stick it on.

    Specifically - the car has:

    Engine

    • Stock T28 Turbo with Braided lines
    • Apexi Cone Filter
    • Walborough 255lph Fuel Pump
    • Apexi AVCR Boost Controller (Old style)
    • 3” Japspeed single exit exhaust
    • Split Turbo Elbow
    • Megan Racing Tubular Manifold
    • NGK Colder Plugs
    • Apex Type 1 FMIC (dented at the bottom)
    • Apex Cold Air box
    • Ebay Catch Can

    Handling
    • Apex Coilovers (8KG / 6KG Springs)
    • Whiteline ARB’s
    • Whiteline Pineapple Rings
    • Front and Rear Upper Strut Braces
    • B&M Short Shifter
    • 17” Enkei Racing ‘S’ Split Rim Wheels
    • Falken Ziax Tyres, brand new.

    Body

    • Vertex Copy Front and Rear Bumpers (need spraying)
    • URAS Side Skirts
    • Chargespeed vented front Wings (need re-spraying)
    • Chargespeed Bonnet
    • De-Spoilered (needs holes filling)
    • Crystal Side Lights
    • JDM Front Indicators

    It's a polite note that maybe it's worth more than he's asking - let's not devalue the marque hey.

    If you have the space, time and patience, (costing your own time at something like £10 an hour) then breaking a car can be worthwhile.
    Getting a problem out of your hair in a convenient and quick fashion is often more cost effective.

    I'm still sorry so see this though Lorien Another oldie bites the dust. Don't be a stranger.
