Alot of people dont recommend megan but honestly for the price they are awesome coils. My friend picked up a set from megan for 1000, its a little pricey but it was direct pick up from megans business thingy in CA they also have incredible customer service and the product is badass.

I got 2 new tires mounted n balanced in the rear then washed my car n vacuumed the carpet and cut small holes into my floor mat n carpet and ziptied the floor mat over a huuuuuge hole in my carpet haha it looks alot better

i started disconnecting all the fuel lines in preparation for removing and replacing the gas tank/fuel pump. and i bought a new fuel filter. the only remotely fun part of this whole thing is that im getting a walbro fuel pump.

Woke up early this morning, and began modding my silvia headlights. One down, one to go. I got tired of blinding on coming traffic.

I took mine out for a test drive to discover a bad brake line and some underside rust Looks like some reinforcing may need to be done on the wheel wells and the underside of the 1/4 panel.
