Ahhhh Nick's S14 Project Log
Anyways.... I had the day off from work today, so I put all my 4lug stuff onto my parts car and was going to swap to the white face gauge cluster till I foundout the tach didn't work. I also painted my Z32 calipers (I'm aware that it's missing a lugnut).
Sorry for the lack of updates lately... At the moment on waiting for a descent size order from TheNismoShop to arrive. I picked up:
JDM Kouki front bumper
JDM Kouki bumper lights
Kouki headlight brackets
Kouki bumper retainer
I picked up this stuff from a local guy for $300:
USDM Kouki front bumper (for sale)
USDM Kouki bumper lights
JDM Kouki corner lights
JDM Kouki headlights
I went ahead & installed my Apex'i SAFC2 and am currently waiting on my AEM Uego wideband to arrive.
Yesterday I hit the junkyard and picked up a cup holder/tray from an 89-94 Nissan Maxima. For you guys that don't know it's a direct fit in our cars and works perfect! Later on that day I picked up:
Kouki coin pockets
Kouki white face gauge cluster (for sale)
Kouki tail lights
I also went ahead & swapped from a green to black complete interior. Also my buddy decided to switch from Hondas to Nissans now, so he picked up a project S13.

Cupholder is pretty sweet, but I didn't like it because it made fiddling with the head unit a pain, and down here the condensation ended up all over my center console, which isn't bad, but I'm too OCD to have water droplets on my trim lol
i was considering grabbing one up at the junk yard, till i read this... i was already thinking about potential issues with it, but i didn't think about the condensation dripping all over my shit... i think i'll leave good enough alone...
I haven't had any issues with it at all besides the fact that the cup holder slots are a little small. I mainly just use it as a tray for my wallet/phone/ipod. I wish I could find another one at the junkyard for the other cars...

Well I finally finished piecing together my kouki front, here's a shot of everything along with the VIS hood. Everything is brand new OEM from Nissan.
Here's a list of the stuff I have for sale:

Just this morning I dropped the car off at the body shop to have a full respray and everything re-installed, all the body work done and the antenna shaved. I'm very excited to have all this done! Just need S14 silvia rear valence, roof spoiler and a lip and it's complete.

I checked out the car at the body shop today, they planned on spraying it but have been waiting on fenders. Well the funny thing about that is....I ordered them from NissanPartsZone.com and it took them 3days to send me an email saying that the parts had to be ordered from somewhere else and that they would be to me in 5days (last Thursday). Well Thursday rolls around and nothing, same with Friday. So I gave them a call and I kept getting the runaround about them being out to lunch. So I had them take a message and I sent a couple emails. I was told by one person that my account will be delayed because the fenders are on backorder....WTF?! I got an email yesterday saying that everything is ready to be shipped but I will have to pay an additional $94.21 to cover extra shipping fees ontop of what I already paid to have them shipped. I went ahead & told them to cancel my order.
Needless to say I will never be doing business with them again. Not only dig they waste my time, tie up $500+ dollars but also have pushed back painting my car and now it's just sitting at the body shop. I just placed another order with TheNismoShop.com
I used them for all my bumpers and the rest of the front end parts and was very happy with their service.
