Nice, could have used different wheels, but hey it's your ride, and it does look nice.Who owns that stock looking s14 in the last pic?

and I also do not know what the driving conditions are where you live, but you car looks like it's begging you to go lower.

But with all that aside, Welcome to NICO!

Ever thought about swapping a silvia front end onto your vert?It looks so much MORE sexier, IMO look it up. and yours looks really clean, so it would be pure sex if you do the silvia front on it.

yeah i could have used diffrent wheels but i got these for 250$ and they are 18x8.5 so they are decent untill i find something else. the stock s14 was mine i sold it, i now own a 96 base model 5speed with extras on it.yeah the car needs to go lower but the coils are frozen and you cant adjust the ride height, im trying to sale it right now so i can get a cbr, so ill leave that up to the new owner. as for the silvia front yeah i know about um i have owned 8 240s in the past 4 years so i know my 240s and what not.

Hmmm.

No offense, but you have SportMax's.

We've (240sx.org) been doing this since 1996...

There's plenty of good fitment here, we're just not jackasses about people who don't.

Great-looking 'vert. Sometimes I wish mine was still stock.

Welcome aboard.

its a 00+ maxiama steering wheel. and the whole fitment thing is most people on here dont have very low cars, i wish i could lower mine alot more. as the wheels yeah i know they suck i kinda said it above. but they are better than sunk in se's and i got them for stupid cheap. and yeah the top is vinly. and as for plains for it, i dont have any besides selling it and getting a bike.
