Intro/Updates of My S
Well decided to introduce my S. She's a JDM AP1 with cloth seats and a roadside flare (i now have 3 of these), it used to have an OEM lip but it looks as if the old owner knocked it off. My girlfriend is kind of jealous of it as i spend more time with it or so she says, well i do drive it most places haha. Well decided to give her a full service for peace of mind (the S ;-)) and since i have put it otr fulltime for the moment.
Have gotten: Spoon plugs, a Mugen drop in, OEM cabin filter, Redline diff, gearbox and engine oils. I didnt have much trouble changing them, havent done the diff oil yet though. I also got some paint touch up and the Shin-Etsu grease for the seals. Had to get new rear tyres (due to bald rears) and I will probably get new fronts shortly too. Have a stupid knocking to get rid of from left rear and then will grease the adjustable bolts and get the geo done. I have also, after reading a thread on here, checked beneath the tool space in the boot and thats wet so need to sort that too. Boooo!
Cant think of anything else to do except drive it->wash it->drive it->wash it->etc. Stupid roads are a state over here with the rain. It gets really filthy in under a week if i call over to my friends, that road has more dirt on it then the fields!
Heres some pics of the beast itself whilst clean ;-)
And a few with her siblings

Now, bear with me please, time for a few newbie questions:
1)Where does the cabin filter go? I havent even bothered looking for where.
2)There seems to be a lot of clicking from the relays e.g wipers on intermittent, is this normal? Also thought i saw a flash behind the radio controls cluster one night.
3)After getting an alarm fitted the roof seems a bit more breezy as if the latchs are slightly loose, should i adjust them?
4)Should the push start illuminate?
5)My fuel guage seems to be missing the first LED on the left but looking at a few pics on here it seems that there is none. Just thought should i post a pic to see if ye think it is?

nice.. white ones are popular here
1. cabin filter is under cover below the wipers on the passenger side i think
2. you'll notice more clicks and whirrs in the S, nothing to worry about
is the radio non std? maybe someone has wired it poorly? should be fused though
3. think they're none adjustable? could be wrong.
4. not sure on the push start.. good question
5. post a pic

No illumination on the Start button
Here's it when it needed petrol:
Here it is after a fill up:
You can clearly see a gap. Pics from my crappy phone
But from searching on here i found this:

Nice car mate, love the colour, yep the guage thing is normal.
Thing I have noticed about your car is, on your rear exhausts it looks like someone has put crappy chrome exhaust tips over already chromed exhaust tips ?????

The gap is fine. It's acutally a smaller gap than the bars, it just separates the red empty bar.
Start button should not illuminate, however the "ENGINE START" writing SHOULD illuminate.
