the jun s15

Ok, on my phone.with nothing to.do, so this is gonna take half.an hour to.type, so just ignore the bulk.mistakes

Been wanting an s15 for a while cause newer and nicer to just cruise in, but most for sale are near stock and I didn't wanna go backwards. I.didn't
Wanna go backwards...I didnt spend 20k building my s14 up just to get into a stock.car with nothing to show, so I decided to go all out with buying an s15 and just enjoy it, while still changing small things f course.
Engine was built in 04 by speedworx by first owner, I'm th third owner. Apparently making 385 ho at 1.5 bar
Picked this 2001 spec r yesterday with only 60,000 klms
The main mods are
- high mount tdo6
- greddy intercooler, intake and exhaust mani, ol school wastegate.
- Jun pistons, rods, adjustable cam gears and 256/265 cams
- internal and external walbro fuel pump, externals located in engine bay near drivers footwell,
- z32 gearbox
- ogura racing clutch
- volk wheels 18x9+30 something wrapped in 265/35, still spins in second when you hit full boost
- jasma exhaust
-motec ecu WITH antilag
-unsure of bodykit, looks like vertex but guy said its not

My plans so.far are
- permits for everything, stay legal
- maybe hks silent exhaust
- comfy recaros for daily duties
- swap rad and thermostat from s14
- maybe gtx3076 twinscroll one day

changing rear brake pads

hey guys, having a struggle with this.

im trying to open up the piston to slot in the new pads but they just dont seem to open enough? had a search around and read something about them twisting so i started grabbing it with the vice grips and turning it to the right. it started to go in a bit but still doesnt open enough. right now it doesnt seem to be going any farther even though im still turning.

any help?

its abs btw if that matters

can these flanges be used on this halfshaft?

got a 6 bolt diff, but the car has 5 bolt halfshafts.
picked up some 5 bolt flanges for the diff cause its easier to swap them over then it is halfshafts
but the flanges look like they require a nose cone thingy where as the halfshafts are flat

can they be used or is it a really dumb idea?

cheers

Eoi cruise tonight

meeting at hillarys at 9:30 leaving at 10 and map is 82 kms so not overly long, will probably end around 1 depending on how long we spend at each stop

hope to see yous there so im not standing around like a tool by myself

s14 not starting =(

cant even do the simplest of things without something going wrong

i put in a turbosmart dual stage boost controller, went to start and it sort of started was real rough and idled at about 300 before dying after a few seconds

then it wouldnt at all, it turns over but doesnt start i can hear the fuel pump priming so im not sure what it could be?
i disconnected the new boost controller and put it back to normal but still nothing

any help would be appreciated
