dan_harris can i ask why the s14 with the 15 conversion is known as the strawberry conversion? I've seen this a few times just always wondered why lol?
because it looks "sweet" and strawberrys are ......well sweet (thats the best answer i could give tbh)
Lexusboy I think your be pretty close on 30.
So how much do 270r change hands for?
not as much as you'd think around about 7k for a mint 1 but the fact they have not very nice styling (in my opinion) ie silly bonnet vent, with an ugly bodykit and only 270 bhp, its criminal to mod one so unless your happy with the styling and only 270bhp most people opt for a standard s14 which they can mod and get more HP from, for alot less money.

I can answer this one. It's because the Japanese words for 1 and 5 are "ichi" and "go", and if you combine them (i.e. 15, as in S15) then you get "ichigo" which is Japanese for strawberry :biggrin:

Nah, I found it on the Internet :lol:
Actually what happened is I came across the meaning of it a little while back, and when you asked again I've been racking my brain to try and remember what the answer was and where I found it. Took me a while but I dug it out again :laugh:
I did check and it's right, ichi and go really are Japanese for 1 and 5 (actually I knew that bit), and ichigo really does mean "strawberry".
