    Thought I would share my s14a

    Hi Guys,

    So ive owned my s14a for a full week now, and I have loved every second As this is my first full weekend of ownership, I have spent pretty much all weekend tinkering with the car.

    I spent all day yesterday grinding off surface rust underneath, and have applied Tetroseal to give it some protection, all looks well under there now (just missing a diff cooler?)

    Today I have spent 6 hours in total both cleaning the inside and outside, fixing the seatbelt being the wrong way round, a HID flickering problem and tidying up the engine bay a bit.

    Here is how she stands at the moment:

    Next on the list, get new rear discs and pads, boost controller, Nistune tune, I have some door speakers on the way, a will be sorting a full professional polish.

    Looks good dude. That gearknob looks like a Tegiwa gearknob (which is a copy of a Honda Integra DC2 Type R gearknob). I've only had my s14a a few months and also loving it.

    Thx Very nice it is too. I currently have to Hi power Silent by HKS and while it's a lovely exhaust I do get tired by all the 'bean can' comments i get at work...Think the twin pipes suit the 200sx better as well - not that I'm interested in swapping it tho. Very nice.
