Waaayyy i fonally got it and now its on the road. Some of you may have seen it already but ive been keeping it pretty quiet because i normally get bad luck when i talk to much about a potential purchase.

I couldnt be bothered buying a runabout so i just cancelled my policy and started a new one, so im on the road aswell.

First i have to say thanks to chris for suggesting an S14. He put the idea in my head and said a well sorted one is far better then an S13. He was right. Best decision ive made. although i miss the pug, this cars midrange more then makes up for it and its as quick as the 13 once its going, yet feels so much better put together and refined.

I havnt really got many plans for it yet, just a few rough ideas but i know where i want to go performance wise already. Im probably going to get some cheap front aero for now and be happy with that.

Heres some specs and pictures for now anyways.

Engine had a full £9,000 rebuild in 2007 to the spec below, but after a cooling problem whilst on a dyno it was fully stripped, checked and refreshed in August 2008 costing another £4,000

Mapped by Weston Performance to 330bhp and 308lb/ft of torque @ 1 bar.

Sweet well done Jones.

Looks good Dave matey agree with Chris they are better al round (ish) but i have a soft spot for the 13.

PS dont ever say the 14s better than a 13 on sxoc or dw though you'll get raped lol

Or a 13's better than a 14 lol

or a 15;s better than them both lol

or lol i could go on ps/sil80/14/14a/15 and so on
