So I've always liked the S13's and S15's, and I saw this come up for sale and jumped on it straight away!

It was imported by JDM Auction Watch for the guy, who kept it in a garage for over a year, never registered it or drove it, hasn't been tracked/drifted/wrecked/driven on our roads. It had the Jap equivalent to NCT until end of 2014 and not driven since then

Its 2002, Spec R, very very clean and solid underneath, and lots of extra mods/upgrades, and is approx. 300-350bhp (once its all sorted road-legal-wise I'll get it RR'd).

106,200 KM's
Black
Almost perfect condition interior, just needs a head-unit
Mechanically perfect, nice dry engine, no VVTI rattle, no knocks or bangs, amazing power right to the redline

-G-Reddy Exhaust
-G-Reddy Coilovers
-2-Way LSD
-Turbo Timer
-Boost Controller
-Dump Valve
-Uprated Steel Piping
-Upgraded Induction Kit
-Uprated FMIC
-Carbon Bonnet
-Full Bodykit (No Idea what type / name of it lol, this Jap Stuff is a new field for me)

I had Derek from DCM Auto's and his brother Chris come down and give the car a full once over before buying it, they were very impressed with it, they really know their stuff!

Only crappy pictures I have so far:

There are probably loads of extra mods that will be discovered when Derek gets a proper check over the car.

Plans are:

Get it MOT'd (booked and all), get it registered and get a V5 & Reg Number for it, get a head-unit, full interior valet, exterior detail with full paint correction, new wheels, get the suspension setup, baffled sump and a few other things recommended by Derek & Chris, have them underseal it, and get fully serviced, checked over and set-up.

I'll keep the updates coming :grinning:

Bloody love S15's. You have set the bar high with your other cars so this should be interesting to see how it turns out.

Have a look on JDM Distro for wheels, hes based in the south and has some beautiful imported wheels from all Brands.

The right wheels will make that bodykit!

New lightning badges also ;)

Yeah 18x10 should do the trick! A lot of people seem to run 17" on S13/S14/S15 though?

18" is perfect for them unless you want thick tyres all round.

18" in bronze in the correct sizes etc will look brilliant and compliment the kit nicely.

Wheels ordered last night :laughing:

It's being left up for the paint correction and interior valet by my good friend David Tweed in Ballymoney tonight. Then it's off to DCM Autos on Monday morning for its MOT prep (y)

Then after the MOT on Friday I'll get it registered, have a V5 and a Registraion Number for it :grinning:

Need to order replacement bonnet and boot badges now!

@Cro tell me more about these Aero catches? Or link me to them? This whole jap scene is new to me lol

Youll need NOVA certificate too mate when getting reg plus jap paperwork and translations.

NOVA certificate mate? I have the export sheet in Japanese, one in English (second copy or something), the sheet stating that the import duty etc has been paid also?
