thought I'd create my project thread, helps keep a note of whats been done to my car and seeing as I'm a member again why not eh....
anyway.
I used to have a 14a which i absolutely loved,
I know certain things weren't to everyones taste but i liked it.
unfortunately it succumbed to rust but not in the usual places, the sills amazingly enough were fine as were the rear arches, the floor behind the drivers side wheel not so much but also found a flipping great big hole in the bulk head which was only found when stripping the car down...thank fcuk it wasn't involved in an accident...was less than 6" from the A pillar

sooo i bought a bare shell, the only thing in it was glass, no clips, lines or anything...interestingly though the car used to belong to a very very old member on her, some might recall the number plate: R20DSX
so set about transferring everything over
Then got it to this stage..and the realisation set in despite so much being done, the thought of new brakes lines, fuel lines, and all the little time consuming things got on top
so took out the engine, gearbox, suspension, brakes etc and sold the remaining shell for virtually nothing (even delivered it too)
so scrapped the old black car and just lurked on here for best part of 3 years, until very late one evening I saw an advert on here for an S15 Spec S, wasn't a great deal of money (when compared to a Spec R) but still a fair chunk of change given I wasn't in the market for a new car at all let alone another S body, but decided to give the bloke a call.
this was the car:
Unfortunately the wheels didn't come with it.
