    Possibly we can work something out so that I can take it off your hands when you guys are done with it :).

    Going to order the BBS centercaps in a week, BTW.
    The only markings I found on the bottom said this.

    CA/CE 99000
    94000 03 05

    Not sure who makes it. I can't see the topside of it, but doesn't look like there's anything up there.

    We haven't adjusted the coilover height yet. We're waiting for our corner balancing session before we tinker with the height.

    Why does the ass end stick so high in this photo?


    Is it just due to the coil overs are not adjusted to parallel the ground?

    Honestly not sure. It was just what they had on their shelf.

    I'll see if there's a PN on it somewhere.

    I would say style 5's but they are so over done now, that I would bother. M paraellels would look real good, a friend of mine put replicas on his 85 735 and that with H&R's and Bilsteins looked awesome.

    He just dropped it off at the body shop for some paint.

    good build, but the car is begging for a different set of wheels

    How is the exhaust note combined with the s14? Bassy or raspy? Or a muted dull burble? Do you have a wav file of it?
    It's pretty loud. Much louder than I'd want for any street driven car. On the highway at higher RPM it has a touch of raspiness to it. If I rev it at idle it also gets a little raspy. But it's pretty deep and loud under 5k. It sounds really nice. Just a touch loud.

    what wheels are going to be on it?
    For now we're sticking with the Style 44's. They now have Toyo RA-1s 235/40/17. We'll run them until we can find something else.
