quick responses appreciated. thanks!:help

Its a SOHC. I don't know much about the car, but look for rust...everywhere, in the wheel wells, under the carpeting in the trunk, on the undercarriage...everywhere. Other than that I'm no help.

there are S12 enthusiast sites, don't know of any, but i do know that s12's are cheap to make fast if you swap in some jdm motor that i don't know the code for... ugh

check out google.com

BTW S12's rock!!!!

S12s are fukn kool!!!

I believe the motor is a CA18ET.SOHC Turbo.

Its an older car, but a classic. Weren't they called S12 Gazelles in japan?
