Quote »kouki tails + stock wheels, eh. do it now, get a student loan lol[/quote]wish i could, but school is the main issue for the winter, plus my front main seal and oil pan gasket is leaking like a b****, so i have decided on a (somewhat powerful) n/a ka build this coming summer. i know all of you are gonna to say "get a turbo", but theres somthing cool about a n/a four banger nissan with some power

yes i did use a paint gun and compressor for the primer, and my dad offered to spray the black and clearcoat

I would just chill and be patient i have been turboing my car for a month and a half now. Thats not driving it either. But save yourself some money if you ever plan on turbo or sr20 swap then leave the engine alone no intake or exhaust . Because you will just have to replace it like me. I would work on suspension and exterior, if i was you but to each a its own. LOOKS SO SEXY
