My ride - Silvia S14a

[DJ_Miracle]

Hi there ;-)
My first post here in GTP...

My ride is a '99 'Nissan 240SX (here in Germany it's called 200SX and it comes stock with a SR20DET).

Hi Nice ride and welcome to GTP !

 

[DJ_Miracle]

THX dude

 

[SkylineObsession]

Nice car dude.

 

[Jay]

Yes nice car, is that an RS*R exhaust sytem?

 

[Revheadnz]

Nice car mate, love the wheels. That speedo picture sure is hustlin', 250kph+ is very, very fast. On an autobahn I assume?

 

[DJ_Miracle]

It's a Invidia G200 exhaust.

In Germany it's realy hard to find parts for the S14a, so everything must be ordered in the United States, Japan or Australia. Shipping is very expensive, and you have to pay the german "zoll".

@Revheadnz
You're right, the picture is taken on the Autobahn. As you know we can dirve on nearly every Autobahn as fast as we like to. The absolut highspeed is about 263kph on Speedo and 252kph on GPS, then the car hits the speed Limiter.

I crashed my car not long ago and had to buy a new silvia. In the new car there is a speed limit defencer, so i can't wait to try it out in may.

The new one as i bought it (updated pics follow soon):

Will you be taking your car to the ring of death sometime mate.

Yeah I have a Japanese RS*R Invidia stainless exhaust (RS*R used to own Invidia)


And those wheels on the maroon S14 are awesome, I want them .

 

[DJ_Miracle]

The wheels are as ulgy as possible, but i like them. Gives the car a lil sleeper look *lol*

But i've ordered my new ones form discouttiredirect, Enkei PKR

Well, i've also done a few DIY mods on the new one:

The taillights just have to be painted....

 

[Pebb]

The tail lights look a bit cheap, and I bet your going to say they give them a sleeper look lol.

Yeah I would like them as a second set (the cool ugly wheels), the new set you are getting are nice.

What size are those steel rims anyway?

Yeah, but he said he still has to paint them.

 

[Pebb]

They already looked painted to me.

I think you're able to see that the "sleeper look" comment had an ironic meaning ;-)

the Taillights aren't painted yet, what you see is the plastic primer.

The new rims are 18x8.5 and 18x9.5, that should be enough.

 

[Jay]

The new rims are 18x8.5 and 18x9.5, that should be enough.

I meant the size of the old "ugly" steel pressed rims that your replacing.

 

[DJ_Miracle]

Oh....
They're 16x6.5

 

[Jay]

Oh....
They're 16x6.5

Great, just fit over my brakes, I might see if I can find some at a parts importer.

 

[DJ_Miracle]

Whats your ride? I can send you mine ;-)

 

[Delphic Reason]

UUUUGGGly new taillights, in my opinion.... Stock S14 tails are beautiful... Why mess the look of the car up, with ugly euro tails?... Of course, I'm not really much of a fan of your rim choices either (or angled burnt tip exhaust)... Some deap dish meshies would look much better, in my opinion (of course)...

 

[DJ_Miracle]

For sure, I don't like those Altezza Taillights and somethin like that, too. But in my Opinion i can't see homemade LED Taillights on any other Silvia. Just to be different

 

[Fairlady240zg]

I gonna have to agree with everyone on the ugly new tail lights. Your car, do what you want to it though!! Too bad about your prior car. It was nice too.

 

[SkylineObsession]

How did you damage the green one? Drift into the kerb?

How did you damage the green one? Drift into the kerb?

Was wandering how you damaged it aswell, is that the only damage that was sustained by your previous Silvia because it doesn't look too badly damaged.

I like your new Silvia aswell, but please keep the lights the way they are if your planning on changing them to what you have done to the left tailight. 👎

Your second set of wheels (Enkei, PKR) aren't too bad actually

 

[The Porko]

Loved the look of your old S14a and the new one looks good as well...nice chose of rims but those tail lights in my opinion look horrible but then again i perfer a car to look nice and simple...sometimes less is more. But your happy with them and thats all that matters good luck with it

 

[GT Pro]

Yer, the tail-lights on the S15 were terrible; far too retro in comparison to those stunning headlights.

Although, hopefully this will change when another sports icon from Nissan will be released (which unfortuneatly, will no longer bear the Silvia name but instead in form of another name).

Nice ride. I like it.
