2001 Nissan S15 Spec R S15 FTW with GT2871R - £10k -West London

Hi, this is my S15 Spec R. I've owned this car for two years now and have loved every minute of driving this car but I'm after a change, so I'm advertising this for sale.

The car itself is in very good condition with no rust on the bodywork or anything I've noticed underneath after the numerous times I've had the car on a ramp for upgrades or servicing. The underside was completely undersealed by the previous owner to deter any rot issues. I hand dry and polish the car every time it's washed to try and keep the paint looking good. The wheels are also in very good condition, the fronts were bought brand new in December and fitted to the car February of this year.

Being a Spec R it has all the chassis bracing that the previous models or Spec S's didn't come with and it's more than noticeable in the cars handling. The mileage is currently on about 86'000 miles, the clocks were converted to miles at 99k km with all paperwork to prove, the clocks now read just over 124km. MOT is till April 2013 and tax till Jan 2013

The car has just received quite a bit of work carried out on it by myself, it's all been documented in my build thread in the members section of the SXOC (of which I'm happy to give details of) with pictures to go with the write up. I've just changed the oil and filter, genuine Nissan item and used Titan Pro S oil, I've probably done 50 miles since this. The exhaust manifold had the cylinder head and turbo flanges professionally machined flat to prevent gasket blowing issues, a brand new cylinder head to manifold, manifold to turbo and turbo to elbow gaskets were also fitted and have done no more than the mileage stated above. All new hot side intercooler pipework fitted with brand new K&N airfilter with silicone joiners all being new too. It's also just had a 56 trim GT2871R fitted, with brand new braided lines from Driftworks, which will produce 450bhp with cams and increased boost. Engine coolant was also changed while this work was done .

The car is currently on Toyo R888's on the rear but are running low, however I have a pair of brand new Federal RSR semi slick tyres to be supplied with the car.

I spent the best part of a year looking for a genuine Aero kit for this car, these parts are extremely rare to find and not cheap, even second hand. I've fitted the factory Aero front bumper and side skirts, which I felt gave the car the look it needed.

I'll set two prices for the car, as for it's full potential on the new turbo it requires a remap. The map currently on the car was for a GT3071R I had fitted last year at 1.4 bar. The car is currently running at 1.1 bar safely with good afr's from my AEM afr gauge on the dash. Beleive me, the car does not hang around even at such a subtle boost level with this turbo, it'll still be producing over 300bhp quite easily at the moment. Just as a gauge on the cars abilities, it was running repeated 12.9 second 1/4 mile times at Santa Pod at 114mph.

I'm not currently looking for offers as I feel the car is worth what I'm asking, nor am I interested in part exchanges, so please don't ask. I am also providing the "S15 FTW" plate with the car.

holy **** ive never heard of them, checked them out! ive had cars that cost less than them.

Remember seeing this back a Mallory must have been 2 years ago. Just after you had been a bit sideways through the dust. Loved them ever since!

So wish I wasnt down grading unles you fancy a swap for a Mk1 Focus RS :laugh:

That was me having a bit of fun:D

Sorry, mate, not interested in p/x's. I've already put an offer in on an Evo 8.

Didn't fancy a 6 then? :)

I'll explain at the weekend, mate. I've been far keener on the newer models, purely for the looks. I've not bought it yet, I made a very cheeky offer earlier which was denied.

I drove the S15 earlier though and it's just such an attention grabbing car, not for noise but stance and looks. It's a bloody good looking car, my mates are asking me every day, ''why are you selling it?'':scared:

On Saturday I'll 'explain' about the error of your ways wanting an 8 over a 6 :D

Got to be careful with the newer 6 speed box, they like to blow with about 450 bhp plus after a little while unless you convert back to the older 5 speed. Also there is a really good evo specialist I know of called R.G Motorsports in Kent if you need any work done. He knows his stuff without being a rip of merchant

wow, i want!!!!!!!!!! swap you my clio turbo for it ;)

Already done all my research, Rich, I know a good amount about them as one of my pals has built up a couple of Evo's now and he gives no bull**** answers.

If anyone thats genuinely interested wants a look around this car, or a test drive (not on track, as I'm not running it) come over at Blyton Park this weekend as I'll be there.

Whoops, forgot to sign Dawn out.

Bump. This car is geared to do 185mph...

I had the car mapped on Saturday, it produced 355bhp and 350ft lbs at 1.5 bar with an ambient temperature of 34 degrees, so not exactly ideal temperatures. I also had the rev limit raised on request to 7400rpm.

Sold.

Post up pics of your new car.
