I honestly don't know how it got here. The guy i bought it from imports mainly r32 r33 and r34 gt-r's and is based in Biloxi, Mississippi, which is on the gulf of mexico so its a port town. But he had a guy from New Mexico trade it in on a Skyline. All i know is i bought the car the guy gave me a Mississippi Title and the car was mine. Everything i hear is that the car has to be dismantled in some form. I've heard things from the whole car has to be in pieces to that just the suspension has to be taken off. I have no clue really. Sorry i cant be of more help. I'll ask the guy i bought the car from cause were in contact on a fairly regular basis. Here's one pic. I'll upload more when i can find them. Nothing special really. Tein Control Master Flex coilovers, Volk TE-37s, V.I.S. Carbon Fiber Trunk and Hood, C-West DRFT front bumper, front mount, Blitz Boost controller and turbo timer, Momo Drifting steering wheel. 240whp at .8 Bar and 280whp at 1.2 Bar, here in the next week im gonna get an Apexi Power FC ecu and get a good tune. I'm hoping for around 290whp. Later on with cams and head work and what not and obviously a little larger turbo i want around 400whp.

Its had a respray, as there were no green S15s.

Its had a respray, as there were no green S15s.

I was thinking that too.. It looks good in green. I look forward to seeing more pics.

 

[C1TPT]

It looks a bit like the s14 green

yeah i had the paint checked at a shop. you know where they take a pic with this camera of the paint and they can see what color it is. and it said it was a factory skyline color or something. i dunno. i like it. the factory color of it was the dark grey. like under the trunk carpet its still that color

here's another pic. i took this one monday. the mirror is white cause a deer hit me and busted my windshield and my mirror so i had to replace both and i just got it back sunday.

 

[meddler]

horrible photo. I am liking the green, but I still think the blue is the best colour

 

[02specraero]

lol yeah i took it with my iphone and it was pretty cold so i was shaking

 

[Darren_S15]

I like that green, looks

That must be how it got to America, the rules dont apply to Green cars

 

[Yakozan]

Welcome :wave:
nice S15 and very nice wheels

 

[Matt_S]

Maybe it literally went as a shell with the panels all off. Some got fcuked up a bit, so they thought they would paint it :wack:

 

[02specraero]

here's a better picture

Indeed it does look like a s14. Emerald green or something? i dont recall. Its Nissan OEM tho for sure!

Looks nice, Its surprising how more and more s15's are popping up around the US and our poor man in japan had to get shot of his cause he couldnt get it home to the US

Welcome to the club tho dude!
