If you rubbed it on a dwarf's head you would've got the no rust enchantment.

Mine would be the 300zx diff sitting in my living room on a pizza box, waiting on shims from nissan to slip one in and make it perform like a 1.5 or 2 way.

My next one would be a engine swap

lol wtf... strangely enough I've got an RB swap in my s13 but haven't gotten a shift knob yet lol...

I am waiting on Coilovers and hope they make my car feel better when driving it. I am tossing on 300zx brakes at the same time so I think those will be my new favorite upgrades..

Favorite part ive installed would be the new rust free hatch, no styro foam special this time. But i have a little collection growing in my room, and soon it will probably be my stance coilovers or the kaaz 2 way.

its a battle between my sr swap and tien coilovers. th sr helps me go fast, and the coilovers let me go sideways without the bottom of my frame hitting the ground like my stock suspension did.

dont think i could put one in front of the other.

the only way you would be scrapping your rails with stock suspension is if you had 10inch wheels and some thin tires. lol

I would have to say the R32 Skyline Brembo brake up-grade and the stock rims from the R32 Skyline. It's a simple thing to do but it looks oh so good.

definately 5 speed swap for me. although it cost about 1/2 of the price of what i paid for the car absolutely worth it.

coils and wheels are a close second though.
