My nissan silvia track toy !

Interesting point about the spoiler. I think most of the stuff 'we' use in terms of spoilers is pretty ineffective really, and has a bigger effect on the mind than it does on the car

(I accept that if you are looking at full aero packages with flat floors, mega-low ride heights etc then it may be different but that's another post and another discussion

)

Rob, what sort of suspension settings are you using? Your camber settings looks really neutral, front and back, and I'm interested to see whether it's just how the photos have come out or whether you run the car like this. I'm guessing you haven't had any issues on the track or you have a solution in mind.

Gareth; this front mount thing........I'm not sure Rob's mentioned that he's having any intake temperature issues although I appreciate that this may be of greater significance when boost goes up

You could always drill the front bumper out for greater airflow if needs be mate, and that way you can retain the stock-ish profile for maximum stealth (as you're weaving lock to lock down the road with over 400bhp

)

The more I look at this the more I like it

You don't see many S14's running Ganador mirrors either. Nice

Yeah true Stu plus you don't see many S14s that don't have the S14a fronts nowadays.

Thanks for all the positive comments guys , stu the suspension does need setting up properly this was going to be my next job before the box went pop ! I've not noticed any real problems with the bumper how it is but saying that I've only just changed back to the oem bumper but can't see it making that much difference . I've got my geo settings I'm going to use written down I got the off someone on the sxoc . I was really looking forward to doing snetterton on the 26th but not sure if I'll have the box done by then , would be nice if I have tho , we will have to see . I'll see if I can dig some more pics out of how it use to look

Small up date , the rb gearbox is in and I'm really happy with it , it's so much nicer to use than the Sr one . Everything went to plan , one of the plates in the clutch were damaged so I brought a new pair of plates from os giken so everything is good to go for mapping , also the wheels are at aero coat being powder coated and I'm now on the hunt for a set of toyo 888's . I didn't take any pics as I could be arsed lol

Another small update , wheels have been powder coated white and I've just ordered a set of toyo 888's , booked the car in at auto test for Friday to have my geo settings added and I'll be off to snetterton Monday to test the new set up out ! It's been a long expensive few months but I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel lol Watch this space for pics

My neighbour has a red one of these with red powder coated wheels, it looks really good.
Gotta love an S14
