S15 Owner New to the Forum

[jakeo]

Hi there my names Jake from Australia.

I've owned an ADM S15 for the past 10 months and have transformed/restored it from the previous owners neglect. I am currently a University Student and have almost completed a Bachelor of Engineering Degree. Between Uni and working full time I rarely have time for cars however do occasionally have a few hours here and there to mod/drive the s15.

Previous Rides Include:

-Nissan Pulsar N16
-Lotus Enhanced Proton Gen 2
-Subaru WRX STI GC8
-Holden Commodore VS VX VY (x4 in total) (VY Current Daily)
-Mitsubishi Lancer GSR/Evo 3 (Current building Time attack car)
-BMW 320ci E46
-Nissan 200sx S15 (Current Weekend Car)
-Holden (Opel/Vaxhall) Vectra (Current Backup Daily)

Back in April I swapped my BMW 320ci E46 for the s15 and have built the car to be a weekend driver and to compete in the occasional track day.

The day I picked it up



The day I broke it



The day I raced it



The day I broke it again



The day I showed it off



How it sits as of today






I have a build thread on another forum however when I have some spare time will transfer it over.

Thanksyou.

I found a recent engine bay pic.

Its a bit dirty however I want to keep the stock look of the performance mods as much as possible.




Id like to get an aftermarket spark plug cover, ones that has holes it in allowing the coils to breath as Ive been told that they burn out quicker from the heat.

Good news though, I found a person wrecking an S15 so purchased a few bits and pieces of it to restore mine.

-Passenger side window switch
-Drivers side door and window rubber trim
-Aircon condenser unit - yay aircon again
-Various boot trims
-S15 rear sub frame cradle
-S15 front fog lights - hopefully if they are not damaged
