Keep it Zenki.

I want to know the drag co-efficient difference between the three. So far Im not a believer there's a huge difference unless its in the bumper inlets! I could be wrong though.

Zenki must stay!

What ball joints did you use? S14's use same part number front and rear?

And, that is your blue R34, correct? Saw it at the shop about a year ago, and it was AWESOME!

ZENKI FOR LIFE!

Good luck Geoff, I am rooting for you. By far my favorite car in the bunch.

Some heavy competition, but either way the car is badass and unique!

Geoff the car is looking great. I can't wait to see the rest of the progress. Too bad we aren't closer I'd trade you my Origin S15 front as I'd love to go back to a Zenki front.

Glad you were able to get the bearings
I don't come to this sub-forum much which is why I wasn't aware of this build
as always, very nice builds
curious, did you modify the pick up points on the subframe, or just reinforced them?

and please, go kouki or keep it zenki

Stay Zenki, be unique. Like S14Serge said, if you must change go Kouki. S15 fronts look wrong on S14s.
