Nothing wrong w/ having an SR daily driver is there? It is a Nissan engine afterall, should last quite a bit.

Besides, why build a car then not drive it? If it was full-race, I'd understand but it's not.

In the end, you need a car that's built w/ reliabilty in mind. If you can't trust your car then you know what you have to do: make it reliable or part it out.

Very clean car man. That black S14 is one of the nicest I've seen!

Damn it, i told you about Diane when you asked for my opinion as i know the topic came up and i told you where i got my s14 done at....:bbb:

If i didn't, I am sorry..........

Car is reliable, i did daily drive it for over 1.5 yrs. There are other reasons at this time to make a drastic move on the S14 relating to finances and debt.

Thanks

YOu are never going to sell it. Sell the S13 and tighten your buckle some. You are making more money now.

We all have alot of time in the S14, and it makes 0 sense to sell it now, not with the amount invested, diminshed return. I say if money is tight, sell the S13 and put it towards your debt, hell I might even consider buying the S13 from you. No one has bought the 14 in a year so I dont see it happening. Most people who want that car cannot afford to fianance a 9 year old car that the book value is so low on and those that have the cash are going to want to build their own. Just my $.02 worth.

I agree with this completely. There's almost nothing on the car that I would change, its just that like most other people, I don't have that kind of cash to lay down. I doubt most lenders would finance the car since it is worth so much more than the book.

I'll bet this is frustrating for you, and I hope that you do sell it for the price you want.

Both cars are looking great. About you selling the S14...... I had an sr20 s13 that was awesome, but I sold it for my stock S14 and I haven't looked back yet.

Damn, that's nice work for the price! I've been looking for a place forever to get mine re-painted. It needs alot of prep too. Might have to check this place out!

You seriously just painted your S13 the same color as Steves car.
