I always thought our cars were categorized as "sports coupes" and that was one step below a "sports car" ?
sports coupe = miata, 240, eclipse, civic Si, etc
sports car = s2000, 350z, etc
super car = ferrari, lambo, etc

i could be wrong tho...

Update:

I pulled the entire S14 interior out this weekend. The only thing left is the headliner and ABS control module, which requires a security Torx bit. Next week will be the removal of remaining engine bay parts and then I'm taking out all the glass, tail lights, ball joints, and maybe the power steering lines. I'm not sure about the control arms, but I guess they could be usable.

With the exception of the ABS module, I was impressed that Nissan only used a few types of bolts and screws for the interior. It took me about 2 hours to remove all the parts (with a few breaks). This interior really looks much better than the S13. If I'm feeling ambitious, I'll revisit the conversion at a later date or look into dyeing the S13 interior.

When I'm done, I'll put up a FS posting for extra parts.
