Yes that is my engine bay. I actually take pride in what my work looks like. Also Body kits are not my style I never liked them so you wont see one on my car. The most my car will ever have is the factory skirts and maybe rear valence pieces.

Also I have KYB AGX Shocks with Sportline springs. All I need to do what I do. I never planned to drift its not my thing so I dont need 1500 dollar coilovers. Maybe I should take a picture of under the car... Or maybe my new roll cage going in... Or maybe the Suspension Technique front and rear sway bars... Or maybe my Nismo 2 way... Or Z32 brakes with Brembo Rotors (REAL not ebay like half your ****)... Or Megan Ajustable Rear Upper and Toe Control... Or Tien Tienson rods... Or Soon to have JIC front camber plates (currently on the other S14 I own)... Or maybe my SSR Wheels 3 piece aluminum and I bet you wont find another set any time soon.... Or maybe my Nitto DR.... Ive got much better handling and driving setup than those 215 tires you and 1993 are running. Hell your trying to talk about my car 93 but you cant even keep your **** together, if you want I can get you a great deal on zip ties and hood pins to keep your **** from breaking. Is the only way you can be cool is have a car worth less than your coilovers? I just looked at your thread and lauphed. You try to talk **** about me when you have a piece of metal pop riveted to the roof LMAO!!! I know the sunroofs on S13 leak but holy **** that made me laugh so damn hard. One day Ill be just as cool as you with coil overs.... Cause you know your not cool unless your car looks like **** but has decent coilovers and is 12 shades of spray can white.

Also 2100 for mounting kit? Im sorry but thats border line robbery. If you just get someone to weld for you the mounts and crossmember mod might cost you $100 in materials.

hi.

chill out dude.

why not make your own thread as opposed to cluttering up somebody else's?

because this whole ordeal started with your statement earlier in this thread.

thanks.

also, im pretty sure the "swap kit" consists of more than a modified crossmember and engine/tranny mounts. but this isn't exactly the place to discuss that.

or.....or......or......or....or.....that doesnt really prove **** bro. you have a clean swap no doubt. probably one of the if not the cleanest ls1 swap ive seen done in an s14..congrats to u on that. but this isnt the forum really to be bosting about your ls1 powered non kitted or lowered s14. dont take it negatively about people talk **** on your car. they are either haters or speaking the truth. and im some of these replies..yes it sounds like haters..BUT..Im sure there is a reason why alot of drag cars run coilovers rather then a spring shock combo i mean really? you dont need $1500 coilovers but you will spend a few thousand on at set of SSR wheels when you could have bought some weld racing wheels or whatever the drag racing world uses and spend far less then some rims that cost a few thousand.

and for you to talk **** about a forum as a whole(or as you said,"REAL not ebay like half your ****". If your gonna attack the forum like that, we dont need ppl here with that negative attitude.

So im just gonna leave it at this. Your car is nice. Clean swap and for what you building it as its perfect perse'. But if you have issues with other members please dont fan it out like that and start problems here. Take it to a pm.

I have real brembos

If you people keep up the stupid ****ing "my car is better than yours", "I are slammed, 2mm to the ground!", "my ls1 is boss" bickering I will just ban you all. It is ****ing annoying, if you cant handle what people say about you on a message board, maybe you should just stay off of the net, you post on the web, you are going to get criticism whether you agree with it or not.

Well I apologize then for making this thread go to hell. I guess I could have been more constructive in the criticism. I just found it funny someone trying to attack my car when they cant even keep their car together.

Also I purchased my SSR wheels for 350 dollars and restored them to new. That is how you get deals, brand new always isnt the best option, maybe the easiest but not best.

Well if you want a true swap kit headers, mounts, cross member, drive shaft. That it total that cost me $1000. I could have gone cheaper but I wanted LT headers so I ought Hinsons set. Also I bought the lighter drive shaft. You could in all reality make a kit for $400 so 2100-400= 1700 profit damn...

yea this forum really doesn't care about drag so it all about taste and style. you would spend all that money on motor when i would spend it on suspension, wheels, and aero.

thanx the exhaust is 3'' piping and we used two 24''x3 1/2'' truck tips and a y pipe. sound isnt near as loud as i thought it was going to be and it beets the hell out of that megan muffler.
