i love my kouki but regret getting it i rushed for new car and should have bought 97 supra(twin turbo stock little mods) and did payments instead of buying and build my s14. it was cheaper but my kouki was money pit. i love the s14 but supra is my fav and i should have just taken time to make payments even though i hate paments on cars

What do I regret?
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, If I didn't do what I did to the car, it would not be where it is, or where I am today for that matter.

Although it made the car impossible to tune right, even the super leaky BOV was fun. It sounded like the car sneezed everytime it blew off and it was loud and inappropriate :]. With every problem and step of progress in the build, friends and I gained more experience and knowledge about the car chassis we all love, so no regrets.

but to keep with thread rules....
I also rushed into getting 4 curbrashed wheels, thinking I could repair them and sell them, but still can't find a place I can trust for this

Buying new stock sized 4lug rotors and pads. I then bought 5 lug and q45, now I have an extra set of brakes that I cant use...Just building a pile of shit to sell once I get the car done...
