Just wondering what everyone else thinks i should do. I bought a bone stock 98 s14 about 2 months ago and it is in amazing condition and has only 50K miles on it and interior and exterior are amazing. I kinda wanna keep it stock just for the fact there kinda hard to find not all beat up. Let me know what ya think!

i wqouldnt say stock, probably understated. A reasonable drop, not coils, so a good spring shock combo, nice wheels, nothing bigger than 17, even possibly 16's. and just freshen everything up, and keep it CLEAN!

I agree somewhat with that. I wouldn't rule out coilovers, but yes a nice drop and wheels is all I would really do. Maybe an oem front lip spoiler if it doesn't already have it. Everyone loves a clean kouki. Post up some pictures.

Great find bro. My project car is a clean 89 with 86k on it back in 2006. You are lucky to get a 98 with 50k.

Keep that baby stock and clean. If you want a project get another one.

I agree on the wheels and dropping it if you want. Personally I wouldn't drop it but that is just my preference.

If you drop it consider upgrading the bushings or keep an eye to make sure your current ones stay good. I am not sure how the roads are by you. That is why I suggest bushings.

Only other thing I would suggest is upgrading the sound system. Nice tunes in a well maintained clean 240SX is the way to go.

Put up some pics, let's see the car.

Nice! First thing, get rid of those ugly gold pinstripes.

I would personally fit some nice wheels on it as long as it isn't too low....and a nice tasteful exhaust...upgrade the audio...and keep the body and interior mint. That would make me drool to see that somewhere.
