Welp, killed my black S14 back in May 2 weeks before my birthday. Grabbed the champagne hatch and swapped motors. Been cruising around in that, but i love S14's through and through. I don't hate S13's, but i think i should of went with a coupe not a hatch. Anyways - 88k Original miles 95' SE built March of 94'(OBDI FTW!). Sunroof PW PL 5lug Alarm System - Had cruise but steering wheel was messed up and previous owner replaced with the wheel that's there now. Only thing the car is missing under the hood is the emissions. Drove 10 hours to pick her up, and i don't regret a bit of it.

Problems - There's a autozone gas tank cover. I hate it to no end and want it off, but afraid i'll peel the paint, so i'm looking for a Blue Emeral gas tank cover please if anyone has! Some stupid NISMO badge on the trunk - I hate that to, and it will be coming off asap. Needs tires and a balance!Dash is cracked bad bad bad. Needs to be replaced. AutomaticPW switch is broke(loose) and causes RPMs to drop if not positioned a certian way. Sounded like something was clicking in the dash, but it's actually clicking in the door.

$3500 bucks, but who wouldn't pass that up? Bought my 96' with 217k for $4000 and when it was TOTALED it was worth $4700 - i figured this car totaled is still worth atleast $5200-$6000. I'm 3rd owner, and FL only car. Needs a little TLC but i've already been doing engine tune up stuff - and getting it to run perfect and changing fluids.

Pics! also some of the car before i bought it (those are first)

Hey man looks excellent!

Was looking at the pictures after reading how you described the car and when i got to the steering wheel i just about ducked like a rock was coming at me or something, That shiz is in your face! you cant miss it haha, really caught me off guard and yes i agree with you on the gas tank door cover thing. Maybe you could take it off and if it pulls the paint you could just do some kinda art on it like presidential did with his, just an idea, it would probably not flow because it is an s14 i see s14's as being a little more elegant then the s13's but ya. GOOD LUCK, GREAT FIND

One Love,

Ghasty

^ My roommate has the same pedals on his Eclipse. I just shake my head at him, but apparently he thinks they're cool.
