Well, booked her in a few days ago for some work and should be getting her back later today, will be going straight to work so wont be able to post pics till tomorrow but here's how she looks as standard;

As you can see, they dont really look anything special as standard but i do like them still.

Stock bhp is 197 @ fly, mine is now pushing 276bhp @ fly. :)

Looks great mate - love the colour :)

What mods have you done to achieve that output - i'd be interested to know as my friend has purchased a virgin white S14 that needs to be whored :p
 
There actually very easy to get power from. The engine is a 4 cylinder 2ltr turbo.

Engine mods mine has;

Apexi Ind Kit
Walbro Fuel pump
NGK BRX7 plugs (1 grade cooler than std)
S/S Turbo elbow
S/S 3" downpipe/front pipe
S/S 3" high flow sports cat
Blitz Nur Spec R cat back exhaust
Autobhan 88 massive front mounted intercooler kit

Other parts;

M3 big front brake conversion
Greddy Profec B boost controller
Apex 32 way Adj. Coilovers
17" 3 piece Stern Hideonex alloys. 9x17" Fr and Rr with Goodyear Eagle F1's

So quite a bit. I just can't wait to get her back now, its gona look sweet!! :D

Sensible modification list :) I'll pass it on. How difficult was the M3 Brake conversion? I thought the R33 conversion would have been easier?

You chipped it at all?
 
It was very easy. It uses the std calipers but with a steel bracket that spaces the caliper out enough for the M3 disc.

See here for the website; http://www.dansbigbrakes.co.uk/

Not not chipped yet and fueling is fine. Obviously would benefit from a chip, but its not detting or overfueling to much when on boost so im happy for now.

If i was going to get a chip, here's the best place to go;

I see you're currently 21, I wish to get my first car around then. And I would like to know how much Insurance is setting you back on that car with the mods. ( have you declared them??)

Well... I'm quite gentle with things, and i know how easy it can be to get the rear hanging out from playing LFS, if that counts...
Edit and i will pretty much preffer stock just for cheaper insurance.

@Insane. It is mate, i just wanted people to see what it looks like standard before I post the new pics.

Well i got it back just before work yesterday and now after having a better look today im not happy. :(

Looks like the wrong shade and there's not much of the purple in it, more grey. Will get some pics up later today.

As for ins. at 21, its not to bad.

1st car was a vuax Nova 1.4, and no im not a chav!! lol, i had no idea about boy racers back then and what cars they used. So ins was 1500, therefore had to go on my dads for 500.

After 7 months i hated it and got a BMW 318i. That was nice 1100 on ins TPFT.

Then got the SX, and they let me put it on the same policy for the same price.

Then with 1NCD it went down to 750TPFT with all mods declared. :D

Why haven't you got the front bumper to go with the rest of the kit? The car just looks unfinished at the moment.
