I've seen the blue seats (and the orange ones) in a few cars. They're an acquired taste, I'm afraid. Might be better if they'd actually matched the rear seat...

Hi mate! Looks like we are doing some good business for Torque GT on the S15 front :D

Mike said the only other one left in stock (pewter Spec-R non-Aero) had been sold just before I went down to collect mine. Be interesting to see what they get in next.

Yes, I have noticed the Kakimoto is popping quite a lot - but it's only littleish pops :rolleyes: and happens at low speeds. I'm looking to get an inner silencer for the zorst anyway cos it is a bit of a loud one. You kinda grin for a few miles but after an hour on the motorway, it gets a bit :annoyed:

Hope you are getting on ok with yours - sorry to read about your Nissan gauge probs but I'm sure you can get it sorted. If you can find someone with experience on fitting gauges then I'm sure they'll sort you out.

I did notice from Torque's website that you got some nice Nismo alloys :thumbs:

Thanks for all the responses so far which have been really constructive :thumbs:

Just can't wait to see all of your cars when I get a chance to meet other S15OC members.

Are we planning to have a club stand at this year's European Drift Championship (RD3 Silverstone)? At this moment in time, I'm planning to go but it will depend on my wife's shift-work arrangements.

the gauge aint a big problem, just annoying!!!

yes, thats what done it for me, i love the alloys it suits the car so well (in my opinion) i was torn between the one i got and your one when i was down there yours has got much lower mileage than mine, and a good choice of mods but your right, that exhaust is VERY loud lol and i liked the blue seats in mine, took me a looooonnnngggg time to make my mind up!
anyhoo -- enjoy it! its a lovely looking car (i especially liked those rear spats) :thumbs:

Rich :wave:

Looks good mate, and clean.

Front lip doesnt look low enough to keep the line of the skirts, what lip is it?

The front lip is a Trust item.

I know it's not quite as low as the Aero skirt but I'm sure this will change slightly when I get the car lowered... :)

Anyway, one of the first things I did this week was to take the screws out of the sections where the lip mounts the wheel arches, push the lip further down by about an inch and re-screw.

This has make it look better.

Yes gunner - due to a slight problem with one of the AVS rims, I am looking to get a new set of Jap wheels sometime next year.

Those Prodrives look nice but I'm thinking Weds at the mo...

Need cash first - don't we all!! :wack:
