    Might aswell start a thread

    So I bought my 14a about 4/5 months ago but not got round to starting a thread on here. Its a 1999 s14a with about 77000 miles on the clock. Pretty standard from what I can see only mods being lowering springs, manuall boost controller and an cone air filter. Since having it i've bought a set of rota gtr's and a cobra bucket seat. I plan on lowering it as soon as i can save the money for coilovers and hopefully getting it to stage 1 or 1a. Unfortunatly it has the dreaded VVT rattle and i'm looking to try and get that sorted along with the clucth witch is on the way out. Apart from that the car runs like a dream, never failed on me yet (probabaly jinxed it now). Also looking to change the wheels for some xxr 557's so if anyones intrested in some rotas let me know. Joined the site so i could get some advice on a few things aswell. Cheers for reading guys n gals.

    When i first got it




    not much different but how it stands now

    12 views and not one welcome, shame on you people. Welcome along mate. Car looks nice and clean. Word of advice though, don't buy XXR's....because I have them and I don't want everyone else wearing them
