hey guys,

My name is Riley

just figured i'd introduce myself, been into the drift "scene" since i was 15 i am 20 now, ive owned 5 240sx's

anyways blah enough of the boring shiet

i just picked up a clip from JPR motors in el monte (california)

its a 97 s14

only 18,871km's!

which equals about 11,750miles basically a brand spanking new SR

my mods arent gonna be crazy as i have had my fair share of high horsepower engines from KA-T to SR to RB

ill be coving my build as soon as i get more funds together here

anyways time for some quick pics!



i pick up the clip monday.

anyways just wanted to say hello and i have to say this community( forum wise) is great.

always out to help so thanks.

Wow, only 11,000 miles on that. You got lucky!

I'm not trying to call you out, but how are you only 20 and have had a high hp KA-T's, SR's, and RB's already? I know working part-time and summer jobs don't cover it. And how do you go through an average of 1 240 a year?

lol i understand.

i totalled one s14 at irwindale for D1 qualify, traded another one and bought two from friends and took posession of another RHD conversion that i sold due to being broke

well being into the drifting scene, i was picked up by federal tires last year and along with a close friendwho became a sponsor we picked up a RHD 180sx

which is here.



as for rb and ka-t i built my other cars with the help of friends and parents(money wise) and have been going ever since

so i hope this shines some light as to me not just jumping on the bandwagon

Man I should start calling you Nick Hogan lol. You're lucky as hell regardless. Most of us have to scrape up change to support this addiction.

i got the clip for $2800



they sponsor me tho so retail on any of the s14 clips is 3500ish give or take.

even if i had to pay full price i would reccommend them becuase the quality of the engine jimmy gets are amazing. he has a 2jz clip from a chaser that looks like it just came from a damn dealership. ill get more pics of the shop on monday!

anyways back to mods

im shooting for 280-300ish while retaining VTC and maybe just getting a hks 2510 (still checking specs and flow charts)

next on the list is good old RAS(rocker arm stoppers)thanks guys for checking out my little project in the making
