As above really. And are UK cars hard to find?

DaveZS

Bumpers, rear lights, rear spats... sxoc.com is your friend

Oh, and theres loads of uk cars about.

BlueSmoke

Ah cool. Any engine differences? I gather parts are easy enough to find to convert the exterior to JDM spec?

DaveZS

There are loads of differences, stuff like different plugs on wiring looms etc. Exterior wise iirc its got a different front bumper, rear bumper, spoiler, rear spats, think the number plate is in a different location too. I don't think the parts are easy to get, they are well expensive and usually get snapped up quite quickly.

there are loads of UK ones out there for sale, but it can be hard to find a decent un thrashed one now

also the insurnace has gone up alot since the popularity of drifting increased in the uk

personally i'd have an S15

what about an S8

Hard to find a UK one? There fucking millions!

Its hard to find JAP ones in the UK as they are mostly under 10yrs old so harder to import, esp as its pointless when there are so many UK ones.

Differences are almost none if you comparing the normal turbo models of each. Engine, suspension, brakes, transmission, etc all the same unless you buying a non turbo or a rare special edition.

Not so sure about the differences Dave ZS mentions either? That sounds more like S14 to S14a differences to me (Or S14 Zenki to S14 Kouki in Jap terms)...

BlueSmoke

Cheers folks. Are engine power outputs same then? Just that insurance for an import was more than double a uk car...

Stavros

Same engine same everything, and rare to even find a late spec import one. Dont worry about em.

now thats a proper tool, once borrowed my ex's uncles one....flying machine, and so many toys!!
