I traded my black 92 5-speed hatchback for a 94 5-speed sil-vert. They have VERY close to the same milage. Anyway here are pictures....When i went to test drive it. 180sx wheels he kept and hood was poppedSilvia front with duel projectors and yellow fogs. Has a small ding in hood.HKS Hi-power exhaust. Has a random hole above it.Random pic. The coilovers were raised all the way. This is about 1/4 of the way lowered.Another random pic. It will be painted white up top and black bottom two tone. Getting rota 17x9 p45r wheels with 17x9.5 in the back. +12 offset.Brembo slotted/cross drilled rotors with hawk pads? i think? And megan racing coilovers. I have a lot of cleaning to do.Here is what i lost. apexi n1 catback, stage 3 clutch, and intake.

The vert has a 3 year old top that works fine, 5-speed swap, header, hks catback, k&n drop in filter, stock clutch, megan racing coilovers, brembo rotors, and my greddy shift knob. I have new door panels and speakers about to go in, paint in less than a month, rotas coming, and either a mild turbo set up or supercharger kit. Stay tuned... Also all emissions things are removed. The boost gauge it there to check for vacum leaks.

hmmm i dono about this one...the hatch looked cleaner but i guess a vert is good to have in the summer.

the sil front looks horribly fitted though but i'm sure you can make it look nice with new paint and little tweaks. good luck

Its really not fitted that bad. The hood is a little twisted tho. And i like the vert way more than the hatch. Because its unique.

Yes that is hot. im going with the 17s. I want the black ones tho. Today i put in new door panels and 6x9 speakers up front and 6.5s in the back. I had to do some trimming of the panel to make them fit tho. Im going to start prepping it for paint Very soon.

Heh cool, yeah thats cracker's ole vert, ive been eyeballing that s14 of his for a while now haha. Sounds like both of you guys are happy w/ the deal and got what you wanted out of it.

Josh let me drive your old s13 over the weekend and that is the weidest stg 3 clutch ive ever felt. Felt like a stock press. plate almost, but it grabbed like an unsprung.

Bama's 240s are the hottest....

Lots of potential on that vert, a good cleaning, paintjob and you will be set. Not a bad deal considering vert top prices.

A couple more pics of me whoring it out.

I have a little aligning to do.

Interior. New door panels were originally brown. They need to have the center recovered. Also the interior paint i used came out well but is slightly darker. So i have to paint the rest to match.

Pic of the stance.

i believe kelly has those wheels now..running what, 315's in the rear?

but back to the op, i'd like a 17/18 stagger, but if you wanna ride low, stick to 17's all the way around. buddy of mine has the exact offsets you're looking for

could go MUCH lower, but roads here in raleigh suck a**
