Morning homos!

After just over a month of waiting I have now got the car I've wanted for years!. I saw it advertised on JM Imports while it was still in Japan and put a deposit on it the weekend after I saw the advert.f

The first time I went to have a look at it there was a noise coming from the gearbox which Jurgen thought might be helped with a new clutch so out came the uprated one, which turned out to be Nismo, and in went a new standard clutch. This seems to have sorted the noise, although I'm certain it was the input shaft so it will probably come back again.

It's got Rays Nismo LMGT4 wheels, Apexi exhaust, Apexi filter, Bride driver's seat, front and rear Nismo strut braces and another brace in the boot. HKS turbo timer and a nice Japanese lady that speaks to me when I turn the car on.

Here are the photos:

I have absolutely no plans for this as I love it just how it is now!

I will be having it on Dynapacks next week so I can see what power it's making.

Very nice Tom :) Looks lovely.

If I had to do one thing it would be lower it a little.. But that's it

Viper
29th April 2012, 18:42
Cheers Danny :)

Yeah I wouldn't mind it being a bit lower but insurance said they will only allow a maximum of 5cm lowered. Not that I can ever find a standard one to compare, but I won't risk it.

Silvia type-r?

Looks nice, very nice. White really suits it. What boost is it running? if its standard should be able to turn it up to 1.1 bar i'd imagine.

is that a bodykit aswell? what mods have been done to it?

How did you convince your parents?


You coming to York Raceway with it next Bank holiday weekend?

Viper
29th April 2012, 19:28
No convincing necessary. Told me Dad I was getting a car from Japan, fuck all he could do about it. He likes it so all is good.

Probably not.

It's not on standard boost I don't think. I'll find out next weekend. I don't want to up the boost yet though, I'll kill myself. Already had a few moments in it!

As I said on Facebook, I have the standard spoiler in my room so when I get another bootlid I'll get that ready to go. Thinking of having a fully standard boot with all the badges etc and this smoothed one. Just swap between the two as and when!

Aye I did a good job of not shouting about it. lol

It's interesting seeing the people that don't like the aero bumper. You're all wrong ;)

Might be gay but I like MX5s! Especially when you get nice wide wheels on the back! Preferably Rota Grids like Tom has got on his.

I forgot you had an MXhomo!! Did you do much drifting in it?

Grass is the only way you can drift an Evo really. lol. Doughnuts will be easy in it though I assume?

I'm ordering my Grid V's tomorrow :P Bronze too. Although i'm going for 7j, not 8. I want to keep it usable. But they still look awesome with 7j, i've done my research.

On the topic of s15's, my mate has got a silver/gunmetal-ish coloured one. Uses it for drifting, it's unreal how he spent so much on a car to learn drifting in lol. And he can drift properly now as well. But he doesn't boast about it. Top lad, top car.

Very nice car Mr Viper, much better than the Fiesta, plus if it drives anything like an S14a then skidding will be ridiculously easy ;)

Viper
29th April 2012, 22:29
I'd love to be able to properly drift it but don't have anywhere to practice it enough to learn properly.

Bronze alloys are the only colour to have on those MX5s! I'ma watch your thread to see how awesome it looks with them on :D

rey
29th April 2012, 22:30
Get some spare wheels and head to a DWYB day, best way to learn IMO.

No risk of getting some trouble from the police that way, although I found they tend to enjoy seeing a nice controlled skid on an empty roundabout..

Sooooo wrong as per usual Gay guy... :homme: Evo's drift well mate, just gotta have balls, its not a straight 50/50 split with the power, set it on gravel and away you go haha


Regards to the mx5, I drifted it to the point where I started to drift it in the dry all the time, 3 sets of tyres in 5 weeks haha

I'm very reluctant to go playing in it on a track. I'm paranoid about damaging the bumper. Could be tempted to get hold of a standard one and put that on for it though.

Also I want to have a go on a large open area before going on a track. Less stuff to hit when I get it wrong!

rey
29th April 2012, 22:37
Oh yeah I would be too, but I'm sure at places like Santa Pod etc they have massive open spaces? Not too sure tbh.

But I'd be the same as you, I wouldn't want any marks on any of it. I'm the same with mine and it's only a standard CTR haha

Go see the lads at K-T-C ( keighley trade centre) They use to import about 50 s14's and the odd s15 a year they don't import full cars so much any more but can pretty much get any parts you want for them shipped from japan. Good lads but you have to haggle with them.

29th April 2012, 22:40
Pod or Teesside are probably your best bet for doing skids. Pod's a massive long drive, but Teesside's a karting track, nowt to hit really though unless you go retard spec wrong, apart from a few cones.

Or Crail, if you wanna go t'other way.

Hmm, there isn't actually that much room at Teesside from what I've heard! Also it's amazing the damage a cone can do. Lol

I would never to a drift day as my first time. Although I'm not going to learn it on the roads either. I'll come up with something. Lol

Currently working on a stroker kitted s14 lump which will be insane..

He has shit loads of new un-opened parts for an s15 which have been stored until the cars ready..

Even if it's second hand bits as he has several donar cars..

If you hit anything at Teesside, you're doing something drastically wrong. Yeah, you might end up on the grass, but that ain't gonna do owt.

As for cones, meh, a little scuff on the bumper at most, should polish out. (Or a brokened splitter in my case, somehow). But, the simple case there, is to just keep away, rather than trying to clip them, haha.

DC5 lacks boost and RWD! Also I just think a full aero S15 is gorgeous :sweetheart:

My mate Maxwell has one of the fastest RS's in Scotland, maybe even the UK and his shredded his diff to bits

Viper
7th May 2012, 18:05
I don't see how though. It shouldn't affect the diff any more than driving/rolling road should it?

Surely the power is being put through the diff as normal and there's less resistance on a dynapack than rollers.

Yeah it should make better power when it's running right. I'm more bothered about getting it healthy than pub bragging figures though :y:

Lean is bad

Did they suggest a reason as to why it's running lean?


Edit- you sure it's not rich? Rich would make your bumper black.. Lean shouldn't really??

It's not an aftermarket kit, it's the optional Aero package :)

It's awesome to drive. Endless power and feels great. Decent MPG is possible. I did York to Fleet in half a tank.

Lol it's definitely lean. I was expecting it to be rich, as you said, judging by the rear bumper.

It will be running lean because the boost had been turned up and it won't have been mapped for it.

Well he said it's getting 244 at the wheels.

There are various models but this is 2.0L Turbo I think by reading his posts...

As above it's a 2l Turbo. Insurance is fine. About what I expected really.

I've taken the other option and not mapped it asap. I stopped driving it asap until I get it mapped. lol

always like these..like s13's..not a fan of s14s so much..and like these too

Viper
7th July 2012, 17:50
Not sure if it's BB or not as they were swapped at one point of manufacture. Not certain what I've got on.

Mapping will most likely be RDT in Doncaster where I had it on the dyno.

The mechanic I use will suggest Motorscope in
Northallerton but I didnt rate them much last time I was there.

Not chasing power yet. It has more than enough. Any more is pointless :)

244 at the wheels but its running lean so I need to get that sorted!

Its not at the wheels, but at the hubs, so no losses apparantley.

blackie_2k5
7th July 2012, 18:16
yeah it should be pretty mean as it tbh with that power

ive heard alot of conflicting info about motorscope..i personally wouldnt use them like lol

what about rs tuning? seem to get very highly spoken of these days and not too far from you either?

I was questioning why Drew said its bad for your diff.

I've already been a man. Circled a few mini roundabouts.

I did a wonderful impromptu burnout at the Bolton Abbey meet too. I think you had gone ahead though so missed it. Smiith certainly didn't miss it as I covered his car with gravel :oops:
