I would buy some Nike sb for 200-300 and it would easily be worth 500-600. And I'm looking at making a good 500-1000 every 1-2 weeks. So that is how I got all the money to pay for my s14 and all the parts I had. As for my gs300 I got the money from parting out my s14! (= and for everyday living money like food, gas, and goodies is I roll/pull fenders for at least a good 2-3 years and would make about 60-80 each car , swap motors for my friends, oil change and much more.


was going through the thread and saw this and had to quote it, why? beause that is exactly what I did bro!! flipped sb's and saved mad cash, im 19 with no job and just traded my 02 tl for my gs all on my own! feels good bro, drivin a nice whip with out being "mommy or daddy built" , congrats bro your build is coming along nicely

Just saw the feature on Canibeat and looks awesome!

I had to search around to find this thread cause I wanted to see more info on the car.

Couple questions:
I read that you have 24k and 22k swift springs? Hows the body roll? The drift vids you posted, were those on the swift springs? I also used to drift a s14 a few years back all done up properly. Trying to do the same.

Have you considered doing a straight 2JZ-GTE swap to get you some decent power?

Are you running an e-brake or hydro, or just the stock footbrake?

What kind of diff are you running?
