i think it's origin streamline, it's like the only kit i would ever run on my kouki.

and yeah spaced out gold G wheels with some stretched tires would look pretty cool..

i'm thinking about painting mine that gunmetal color like my mustang wheels..

How hard is it to do the brembo setup and what did you pull the brakes off of?

well i havent done the setup yet. but i have the front brakes. i got them from a jdm sti. my friend got the full swap for his car, and he broke the bleeder valve off in the caliper. so he sold them to me for 200 :)

the sti in japan uses a 5X100 bolt patern and a smaller hub centric center. so in order for me to use the rotors i have to have the center machined bigger and redrill for 5X114.3. then i also have to make a bracket for the front brakes. the bolt holes are about an inch wider apart from the stock location and they need to be spaced out a little. so i need to either make or buy a bracket. i think im going to make one.

meh who needs a bleeder valve. :gapteeth: Sounds like a decent amount of work but I bet they look and function awesome when they are done. Are the 350z brembos compatible with 240s? I have got to do something with mine the stock brakes blow.

as far as i know the 350z and sti brembo's are the same. except the 350 rotors fit the 240. at least thats my understanding. but im cheap and already have the rotors and other than the bolt holes and center hole the dimensions are good.

Yeah like this engineering marvel I have to drive through everyday. I wish I could meet the dumbass who designed this thing so that I could give him five across the eyes.

Yea, that's what I thought too. But remember Cobras run 13in rotors.

Also I've seen someone pair some CTS-V calipers with 13in cobra rotors on a S14.

Just throwing some cool options your way.

Fronts are 225/40 and the rears are 235/40. I actually want to go 235/40 (F) and 245/40 (R), just have to save up for the 245's though.

I appreciate the info Moto, but I think tire's are too important to skimp out on. I can actually get a good deal on the 245/40 Nitto Invo's (same tire's I have on now) 2 of them for about $300 installed. I only paid $450 for the set I have now, and thats only because I now the guy who owns the shop where I got em :dblthumb:

Yeah, but anything is better than the stock 205/55 16's I was rolling on before, LOL

Here is my new s14. It will be all red soon enough. I bought the car about a month back or so. I changed all of the exhaust gaskets after I bought it. I found out the sr has a disco potato hanging of the manifold, pleasant surprise. Now I need the front lip, grill, and Im about to have the black parts matched to the red.

When I bought it.

How it sits now. If you think nissans leak check out the oil spot from my dads dodge dully.
