its not a race car, it my daily driver.
The hubcaps are spraypainted a gray metallic color.
The sound system isn't very powerful but it gets the job done just fine.
When we replaced my radiator my dad was like, "Let me paint your fan red, it would look pretty cool." I didn't want to say no.

As for selling it, probably not that much. its a worn car.
I'm not selling it till i get my hands on something better (hopefully a kouki-if i can ever find one, there only like 3 in the area!)

That audio system looks clean man. Why do you want an S14 over an S13?

I like the aggresive look of the kouki. Also its not as old. I would put more money into upgrading my s13, but i really don't have the time to do much. i am very slow- it took me a week just replace the bulbs in the instrument cluster!

the zipties actually fixed my cracks and kept the upholstery from lifting up, and pink hearts are to soothe my soul

Maybe bass southes falconhawk's soul. Ever think of that? A$$hole. I like how clean the installation is. My sub is in a box I made myself out of MDF and its just tied to my rear strut bar lol. I say +1 for a clean system.

Nice, it actually looks classy. Now all you need to do it paint the intake plenum.
