Roflmao..

240's

Popular.. Yes..
Numerous Build #'s.. Yes..
Kings of Drift... No..


...................................

Honestly you need to keep stock for a bit (6 months) Then if u havent totalled the car yet then modify it. It is a Huge change from FWD to RWD in all aspects.. now you have to worry about your ass sliding out when taking a turn in the rain and you gotta pay attention to throttle usage while turning to prevent sliding..

If i dont total it. lol what are you really expecting me to total it? well i didnt mean the kings of drift i ment that are the majority of drift cars that you see. my friend owns a mr2 and he likes the do a little drifting from time to time. I try to pay attention to what he does when he does it. hes not a pro but it somewhere to start.

Even if you're just going to daily drive it, then you won't need 350hp. Basically, you won't need that much power having been driving less than a year. Not trying to be a dick, but you will have a VERY difficult time controlling it and it's likely to be dangerous, especially if you're going to be racing.


The tein drift coils are VERY stiff. With that much power, you're going to want something with a little more give to it so you'll be able to get off the line without bouncing your wheels on the ground.

oh ok. well about the power issue. I dont want to stay stock. thats the point of building the S14 in the first place. I would but the car, buy an SR20, turbo upgrade,and intercooler upgrade. then work on the body style. I know somebody is going to reject that but, thats just what I would like to do.

BTW - Its not going to be a daily driver.

I would stay stock until you get use to it, cuz when I dropped in my DET I went from 128WHP to 260WHP and it was a night and day difference in a 2200lbs car, it was actually somewhat scary.

If you get a SR20DET with a T28, exhaust, intercooler and then a good tune, that should stick you in the upper 200's and that should be a good start. Getting more than that, you're looking at injectors, reflash ECU/standalone, turbo, etc.

You won't need to take it out to mod it. You don't need to build the block to get 350-450hp. Everything you're talking about doing is bolt on stuff. You will need a LSD and clutch if you plan to make that much power, also.
