I just replaced the hose going into the boost solenoid, because there is a restrictor inside the factory hose. If you have a boost controller then this "mod" is pretty useless, I think.

This linkon ns.com should help you.

Nothing huge.

Finally installed the turbo timer I bought a few months ago. Bit of fiddling around measuring the correct wires but eventually got it done.



Next up I think I will get some tints. Any suggestions? I was thinking a bit darker than legal all round (legal is 35%?).

Hey! that is a nice exhaust! my advice would be to keep it! Jap stuff is great quality!

Gee. I forgot about this thread.

Anyways, I got some 15% tint and HSD HR.

And tried on some wheels to check out the fitment.

17x9+19



Fitment with sports union card.


Front


Lovely. Bit less poke on the front and that'll be the specs of my next set of wheels.

I'm surprised those wheels specs got as close as that to fitting under std S15 guards.
previously I've seen 17x8 +35 front and 17x9" +38 rear sit about the same on a few S15's.

are you sure they weren't +39 not +19? what size tyre is on those also?

These are actually Neburchenezzers old wheels, so if he reads through this thread he can confirm. Tyre size was 235/45/17 I think. Rear waas running -3 degrees of camber (stock camber arms) so that might be why it doesn't poke out so much. Fronts just under -2 degrees.

I currently have 18x9.5+38 on the car at the moment (wheel swap since mate wanted to use my r32 wheels on the dyno) and they are perfect flush with the rear guards on a 255/35/18. I'll chuck up some pictures tomorrow when I give the car a mini photoshoot.

Just to reiterate, I've got a set of 18x8 +11 wheels (so will only sit 5mm inward) each running a 235/40/18 on them (so less tyre stretch).

I trialed these on my mates S15, stock guards and arms, just lowered and on the rear sat close to flush on guards, would only require a roll and with a 215/40 would sit flush on the front guards.

Hope this helps.
