ichi-go's 99 JDM White S15

ichi-go's 99 JDM White S15 **UPDATE 10/04**

Hi everyone,

Just thought I'll post up my ride. Will update this as I go.

When I first got the car


Interior of the car, abit riced up from the previous owner


Against everyone's disagreement, I went and took out the defis because I dont feel the need for blink gauges for a daily driver. And I dont have to be cautious of where I park now.


Current look of the car:






Future mods would be:
- Cooler
- Boost controller
- Suspension mods
- Shave keyhole in boot and remove lightning badge in front. After that clean look.

Cheers
Have a good one!

Buddy Club P1s
17 x 8 +32
17 x 9 +37

Fills out the guards nicely. Too bad they dont make it in white anymore, this set was sourced 2nd hand from Japan.

 

[irvs]

looking well i like the 'clean look of the white wheels and no rear spoiller.

 

[Robbyp]

do the defi gauges always sit out that far in the centre?

 

[sushiming]

i find it funny when i see s15 without the kit maybe iam just used to seeing mine with skirts
all good buddy :thumbs:

 

[ichi-go]

robbyp,

If you install the defis into the air vent flaps(not sure what you call them), then it will sit that far. If you take out the air vent flaps altogether, then it will sit flush. Not sure how they install without the air vent flaps though.


sushiming,

When I bought the car, I straightaway sourced the side skirts and rear wing for my car. It's still sitting in the garage waiting to be installed. Guess I prefer this cleaner look. I may install the side skirt and rear wing in... god knows when

the momo steering wheel is an optional item from nissan
it doesn't feel weird on STis but on an s15 it does

Just fit the sideskirts
If you're fitting the rear wing, chop the middle leg off

 

[Topper]

Looks good mate, the wheels really suite the look your going for :thumbs:

Have you got any profile shot showing how the wheels fit in relation to the arches? If no, can you get one, please

Looking good, mate :thumbs:

 

[ichi-go]

Topper,

Alright I'll take one side shot showing how the wheels are in relation to the wheel arches. The rear I'm running 225/50 which came with the wheels, doesnt clear the wheel arches that well because of the profile. 40 will be just nice. Will definately need guard rolling if you are lowering it, I did mine so it clears well. Front I'm running 235s/40 so there's not much problem.

Nicely,

Thanks! Yours is looking good as.


Yakozan,

Yeah I'll definately be cutting out the middle support for the rear wing. See how it goes.

 

[baynz]

you got wider wheels on the front than the back?

 

[ichi-go]

Yes I know it's weird but it was the tyres that came with the wheels so I'm using it till its finish then I'll be chucking 255s at the rear.

 

[baynz]

why dont you just take the wider wheels from the front and put them on the back and the narrower wheels from the back and put them on the front?

 

[Jordan]

nice clean example matey :thumbs:

 

[Dazz0i]

it must be just me, but, the pictures don't load for me!! :'(

Can someone possibly save and email me them???

 

[ichi-go]

DAzzo,

What's your email mate? Let's exchange pics!
