Yes, aka "drift knob"

Car's pretty clean, just needs moar lowarr. The shift boot looks kinda weird being so tall too, but meh. The knob rocks.

seriously, the previous owner painted it, and it totally wasn't preped...there's like cracks that litterally look like veins on my car, and the rear bumper has cracks on top cause of heat...i was thinking 1 day paint...but...hmm..

save up dude...

Once you have coilovers... the transition is like a whole new step in life... like day and night.

When I went from n/a to turbo, yeah, it was cool, hearing spool and going slightly faster and what not...

but getting coilovers and sitting lower... man, its like, screw how fast your going with a turbo, you can take hard turns and look cooler while doing so, lol.

HKS Hypermax...

but I'm kind of in the market for some new coilovers, instead of rebuilding my current ones (they're kind of showing their old age already). Not a lot of people know, but manufacturer suggests a damper rebuild every like 50,000 miles or so, esp on a daily driven car. My sh*t's been driven like 10x the manuf. suggestion w/o rebuild, LOL.
