if you dont know anything about drifting dont bother getting an s15, its an expensive car and its not good for learning on, buy an s13, turbo it, and build your suspension for starters then after you know what your doing you can upgrade to a better car. who knows you may fall in love with your s13 and not even want to buy a new car.

I want to put it back together just for now. All i need is 150 for all three broken parts, but I dont have a job as of now, my last check went to paying the insurance for this month, and my mom dsnt have money 4 that. So i guess im kinda waiting till the end of the week to see if the insurance is paying or what.

And the girl is fine shes home now, that was my friends niece btw. I belive they are suing the guy though.

actually, i bet you Australia got the CA18DE, CA18DET, SR20DE, and the SR20DET... so perhaps a 50% chance that it already has a turbo when he buys it?

personally i am perferable to the s13 but thats just my opinion but the coupe is more structurally sound than the hatch
