Car is looking good Sunny! In need of a NAVAN grille are we? Also my condolences for having to have your car registered in Cali thus having that hideous looking plate on the front of your car .

The VS-XX's are long gone, I might pick up another set in the near future though.

I had my navan grill stolen from me when I was at the movie theater a year back, sucks... I'm just rockin a 96 grill for now.

The navan bumper has a premolded license plate holder and it would look kind of funny if there wasnt a plate there, also I do live in CA so a plate must go there anyways

I sold my zenki taillights a year back because I was planning to part out my car and continue my S13 project but that car was sold so I put back together the S14.

Well I know that the Navan bumper has a premolded spot for a plate cuz I have the same bumper with a faux JDM plate. I just meant that it sucks you have to put a Cali plate instead of something cooler, plus your plate is centered in it's position instead of the top of the plate being flush with the bumper.

How the hell did they steal your grille without popping the hood. They would have had to yank it out and potentially break it since the tabs are under the hood.

I put the plate a little higher instead of being flush so it doesnt block the FMIC! Loss of airflow to the intercooler = less power!!! HAHA

Yeah, im sure they broke the tabs to the grille but since they wanted it that bad, they took it.

Beautiful car, Nice and clean and congrats on those wheels. Gorgeous.Just curious about your lowering, what your using. I'm running 18x10 fno1's all around. Would like to be just as low as yours.

Again beautiful car, one of my favorites. Speckid

I am running Stance GR+ coilovers. Here are some new pics of the front coilovers maxed out with 1 collar removed and the rear being lowered another 1/3 inch. I am now tucking 1/2 the profile of the front tire and 3/4 of the rear tire. Yes I know the wheels are cambered, but thats how I roll

You might run into some clearance issues with running a 10" rim in the front due to it not clearing the coilover. If I can remember correctly, the widest FN01R-C's came in 18's is a 9.5" so you might be in luck.

yeah sunny, your right my wheel is an 18 x 9.5, however, that is where the bead for the tire is. The actual physical width of my rims are 10.0 on the dot. Which leads 2 clearance problems. maybe I will just roll or pull a lil more. hehe. How do you like the stance's? they are the first choice on my list, lol.

Just put my rims on a week ago or so. Still need to lower it and role the fenders but here it what it looks like so far. I plan on getting front fogs. (I already have the brackets) I'm pretty sure that my car had them that they were taken off. I even have the fog light switch thing. Also want to get 97-98 Side skirts.



I hope this works. First time posting pictures.

I think it's in your best interest to block your license plate when posting pics. I forgot why.

Because theives can locate where you live by running your plates. However cases such as mine where my car is registered in MS but I live in CA it doesn't matter. So if someone wanted to steal my car they would go to my address in MS only to find I don't live there....so sad.

Thanks 240sk I was wondering what the RP05's would look like on a 240, not bad, I was going to put those on my wifes Altima but went with TSW Vortex instead. Nice & clean 240 , just needs more gravity.

Thanks man, yeah i had no clue what they would look like, because i searched a lot and could not find a single pic of a s14 with them. But i really liked how it turned out. I'm definitely going to be getting it lowered. But yeah i was also looking at tsw rims too. Mainly the nagaro, but them i found these for a good price.
