Are those rims knockoffs of Volk GT-Ns? ... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> Rims are a little large, the outrageous body kit looks out of place without an FMIC (but goes well w/ the ~+70mm offsetted 18s) and the "fogs" are a little too "rally style" for me...
But from a distance, it looks nice. :shrug: Hey, you posted it, expect mixed comments. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sly.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':sly:'>

note- I find it 'interesting' that you had $ for 18s and tires and a bodykit and fogs but not for an exhaust (as far as I can tell from the photos). Let me take a stab at prices: Body kit w/ paint: ~1,300 rims and tires: ~1,000 tint: 100? springs: 150? ... that put together is enough for an SR swap!

Black240sx
10-08-2002, 08:28 PM
you are pretty close on the money... I got the body kit for a really really good price. I called in a favour. the rims were 1100 with tires adn mounted adn everything. They are ADR Sokudo 8. Springs were also almost free.. now as far as the exhaust... you are correct on that I do not have one.. I am waiting for my Apexi N1 Duals. It should be in this month. and as far as the SR swap goes...it costs anywhere from 3200+ and so if you compare the $$ I didn't have enough for it anyway. plus I got money for the kit when I got in an accident and got the money from ins and decided to get a kit instead of a new bumper. It cost me the same! they just didn't know that.

As far as your comments...don't worry about it. I know I posted the pics and some people will like it and some wont. I did to my car what I wanted and thats all there is to it. you kno!? I will also be getting a mesh grill in the front air dams in about a week. I had to get them made special because of the large openings...

I suggest some spacers for your wheels bro. Whats the offset on them?

other than that, looks good, paint looks prime. Now all you need is some power to back that look up.

*oh, and I am not feelin the fogs.

looks good, now wat u need to do is swap out those 95 with 97s. i think it would match more since the 97s are black..where as 95s are somewat red

I was just going to say that!!! &nbsp;Beat me to it.

Personally, I think the car looks awesome, but yeah, you need to bring those wheels flush with the body to finish the look. &nbsp;Super clean. &nbsp;I say skip the grill and just leave it dark like that...but it might just be the lighting.

first off the car looks great, there is just one thing that urks me....with a front bumper that sticks out that much and is that low 1 or 2 things would have to happen if it were my car.


1. get a decent spoiler(no park benches)
2. get a diff rear bumper that would bring the ass of the car closer to the ground...

it looks like the front lip is causing the car to fall forward!

other than that the car looks awsome i espically like the gauges!!!

thtas a Bomex kit, full bomex i might add.

you can buy those indiglos on ebay..and no they dotn fit 97s, the gauges for 97s are diff than 95s. the 95s have a overlay effect, where as the 97s..the speed and tach are seperated

Nice car, dark and aggressive.....

but I'm not feelin' the foglights and the missing turn signals. You should get some mesh to cover up that spot in your bumper where the FMIC would be sitting.

What rims are those(size also) and where did you get them?

I have the same gauges in my car.....I got mine for $20 shipped off e-bay. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

Looks good! &nbsp;You may want to put signal lights though...I know you have to get the JDM clears and they ain't cheap but those openings make the car look a little cheap. &nbsp;Plus you don't want rust to build up in there. &nbsp;

The fogs or OK. &nbsp;I would get some that match the headlights but to each his/her own. &nbsp;

Rims would look better flush but they look alright like that. &nbsp;At least you won't have to worry about the wheels throwing rocks and chipping your paint. &nbsp;If you do get spacers, get the best quality like H&R.

Thanks for all the criticism. I have been trying to get the turn signals for over 2 months now. The guy I go to can't get a hold of them for the price I want. Everywhere else I asked theya re for like $150+.. just for the damn turn signals.. so I'm gonna wait for another month and see what happens. As far as the rims they are ADR Sokudo 8 - Gunmetal, 18". I got them from a guy I know that owns hthis shop. You guys might wanna check out his website www.projectimport.com. He doesn't have a lot advertised for our cars but if you request it he can get it. MEsh grill for my car is comming in in a bout a week or so, gotta wait till next paycheck.

Really nice and clean car you got there... Very well presented, and I have always been partial to the look WITHOUT a football bleachers wing on the back. And on top of that, black has always been a sinister color to have. Outside of the lack of turn signals, it's very well done. One thing though you may wanna try, have a look at the 96 front grill instead of the 95, a lot of people who get kits witout doing the 97-98 headlight conversions (yes people, not everyone likes the lights, myself included) like the look.

I think that you can get those gauges at procarparts.com.

S14, Zenki (http://www.procarparts.com/store/displaydetails.cfm?pid=ING-9596240Z)

89-90 S13, no HUD (http://www.procarparts.com/store/displaydetails.cfm?pid=8991240sx)

91-94 S13, no HUD (http://www.procarparts.com/store/displaydetails.cfm?pid=ING-9194240SX-REV)

And I couldn't find any for the S14 Kouki. &nbsp;I have only dealt with procarparts.com once, when I ordered my short throw. &nbsp;But they came through and I got my shifter within the next few days. &nbsp;All that I had expected. &nbsp;Hope that this helps.

Also, I really like your car, I love S14's, Kouki's more, but your's is really nice. &nbsp;I'm not really that picky unless it was my car, so I'll give you props for turnin out a really fly 240. &nbsp;And a DET better be at the top of your list! &nbsp; -BEN

Simply....beautiful.

That is one of the nicest S14's I have seen. &nbsp;And I am in Japan. &nbsp;Too bad that the KA is hiding inplace of an SR20DET.

I absolutely love the Zenki S14's the late Kouki models don't look right with the rounded rear end and a highly angled front and head lights.....

Nicely done.
