Another Newbie Here!

[dread]

Hi Guys,

I signed up on here recently as I've been looking for a nice clean S15 to have as a weekend toy / fair weather car.

I've previously had a few 200SX's in the past and have been a member on SXOC for a long time.

I got the nod from Torque GT this morning that i'd won an auction on a grade 4.5 Spec-R overnight so I think it's about time I said hello :wave:

I'm excited to get my car delivered but I'd imagine it won't be until after Christmas now. Pics of the car below:

I'm told it's super clean so i'm very happy to have found a good one!

My plans are tasteful, well executed mods that won't ruin an already awesome car. I may have to swap the red seats though :nod:

Looks very nice. Bet the seats grow on you.

 

[Cap'n Crash]

Welcome along. You've got a nice one, Red, full aero kit.

 

[S15_SAM]

Welcome. A grade 4.5!!! Wow almost like new I bet, and yeah those seats are lovely seats but orange in a red car is abit odd!

Thanks for the welcome guys! We'll have to see about the seats I guess. I'll have to stick up some more pics when I get the photo pack through from Torque-GT. Get a project thread going. :nod:

Is it me or does it have parking sensors

 

[dread]

As far as I can tell it does. I'm guessing some kind of aftermarket add-on in Japan. We'll see when it turns up I guess. Might be useful given how tight my Garage is though!

Woweeeee, that looks great.
Red, full aero, 4.5....epic!

They were supposedly bidding on this one for me as well!! Would have been nice if they had just told me from the start that they had another person interested with a higher top bid instead of leaving me feeling hopeful over night!!
Enjoy her, im super jealous lol

 

[dread]

Sorry

In their defense, I did tell them to bid right at the end of the day!

Looks like you may have got one where the first owner ticked a lot of the options. The orange seats are even rarer than the blue ones. Hard to tell from the pics but they look like the optional alloys, and I'm pretty sure parking sensors were on the options list as well, I have a pdf of them some where, but I've never seen them on a car before.

 

[TomK]

Shame about the sunroof but you can't have everything

 

[dread]

I'm actually not bothered by the sunroof, I had a civic with one once and I did use it. :nod:

If you happen to find that pdf it would be quite cool to take a look at it.

Looks lovely, I do like the red ones.
My old white one was a 4.5 from Torque and was exceptional.

As for the sun roof, I never saw myself having one, but my PS13 has an electric one and it's awesome

[ANKRacing]

Red, full Aero AND sunroof? You lucky guy!

Quick update to this:

I got through a load of pictures from Torque-GT yesterday once the car arrived at the docks. It really is mint! I couldn't be happier with the condition of the car, the underside looks brand new.

A few pics.

 

[phillll]

That looks so well spec'd!

 

[Cap'n Crash]

Hicas on a s15. I had heard some came with it but have never seen one.

 

[TomK]

First time i've seen Hicas fitted, they really did go to town with the options, will be interesting to see what else it has once it arrives.
