I would LOVE to upgrade... but I don't seem to have the $1k for it...

oh and Alan... IT absolutely feels like a boat when you drift it on stock suspension!!!

I figure, If I can drift it as it is right now, I will be that much better once I upgrade...

anyone want to donate to my suspension fund is more than welcome!! ;)

I'll take any kind of fundage!!

I'm going with stocker out of a SE for now... untill I get enough money to get better ones...

I'm in no hurry to build my car... I figure, my skill will be better if I keep practicing with stockish car and as I get better, I can start upgrading the car with it... making my skill that much better!

YO Anand! Get the Nismo power brace, dude! I drove my friend's S14 with it and the handling tightens up in the front, man.

I like it on my S13 too, but its not the same with my car. It works well with minor mods... i should know.

2nrchic: Forever! Once you get the money you'll need tires, a new timing chain or something else expensive that you won't expect(except the tires hopefully you'll see that coming)

At least in my case
