Texhnolith's 1998 Nissan Silvia S14a (200sx) SR20DET

[Texhnolith]

finaly got the spoiler today.
Picture of the testfit. Gonna be sanding and painting it in the coming days (probably weeks due to lack of time )

[Andre_online]

Hmm, I don't agree with the spoiler's colour though. Just my 2 cents.

[Texhnolith]

read the text above the pic.....

[Grez~Supra_RZ-S]

Always loved that spoiler, my friend has it on his S14A too (along with JDM bumpers).

[viper16]

I like the way it looks.

[TheStig]

you need to test drive a spoiler

Unpainted does make you look like a ricer

[Texhnolith]

never test drove it

Bought it at a meeting. test FITTED it then took it off to drive home.
Its a 5min job to fit it.

Been sanding for 2 hours today.. probably got about 10 hours of sanding left.
I know thats overkill on time. but the result will be much smoother then a babies bottom.

[RedCarDriver]

Um. This will make me sound like an idiot, but aren't you worried about sanding holes in it? (jk)

Looks awesome in the test fit.

You're a d*ck man... posting a picture with five 200's and an Impreza, when we can't even get 200's over here.

Na, I'm just kiddin'. Good on ya... if more Nissan owners did things the right way people would jump on the ricer bandwagon and compare us to Honda.
(J/k, I'm cool with Honda. Now if you're driving a damn Geo - there's a different story.)

[Texhnolith]

5 200sx? lol. you should see whats on the left of my car

/me sees S15 and cusses loudly.

/me sees R33 and shoots myself in the head.

[Texhnolith]

There where 2 S15's, about 8 R33's, 2 R32's, 1 R34 GTST, 5 RX7 FD (and 2 FC), tons of Imprezas, and loads of silvias

"Japanse voorjaarsmeeting 2009" google that and find more pics

Spoiler time!

Spoiler with primer.


Black paint:


Clearcoat, not much fresh air left.


drying:


An a couple pics of the spoiler on the car:

[RedCarDriver]

Wow. Looking at those pics alone, I think I've decided that that's the best kind of spoiler for an S14a. It looks great, as does the rest of your car.

What kind of spoiler is that? I don't remember seeing you post what brand it is.

[Texhnolith]

OEM Nissan JDM import

This is the stock japanese spoiler
All bodyparts on my car are oem nissan atm.
Clear indicators, grill, badge, spoiler

[Zero260]

Man, you seriously need a Photobucket account or something. It's a pain to right click>view all of these photos.

Looks great, though. I like the green/gold thing you got goin' on. Do you still plan on a grey/gunmetal respray like you mentioned earlier? Or are you keeping the green and just adding black details?

[Texhnolith]

why would i need a crappy photobucket account when i got my own server space Oo.
The problem is that the forum is massivly lacking modern web technology
Auto resize function as most forums have these days.

its green/bronze/black now. im finalyzing my plans as i had em since i bought the car.
Im currently starting to plan out my new ideas.

For the time being the next mods are:
- Carbon hood
- new bucket seats
- Yellow/orange respray <- bit like this smily and keeping the black details (hence black carbon hood)
- Still thinking about a bodykit. not sure if i want one. would look sweet but its costy.

[RedCarDriver]

If I were you, I'd just get the Japanese-market OEM Silvia front bumper and the C-West lip kit or something.

Yellow/orange sounds like an interesting idea, although I do like how it looks right now.

[Texhnolith]

Hmm no, dont think id ever get a oem japanese front.
I prefer this kit:

[Texhnolith]

yay, package

[Striker94]

:O

Sweet spoiler, but it's nothing on that kit...

[Texhnolith]

new stuff

Gauges, Boostcontroller, Powermeter, Decat and Chip installed
Car is now a full Horsham Stage 1a tune hope to get a dynorun soon (hoping for aprox 285bhp)

[Striker94]

lol, you gotta refurbish your interior...

[Texhnolith]

how so?, nothing wrong with it that i see

[steelsnake00]

What are the gagues? Oil pressure, boost and oil temp?
Flock the dash. Flocked dashes = awesome.
