Hello KA-T, long time no read....


Finally got this on the street today:

Its so nice to be back in a 240! It's been about 5 or so years? This is my first S14 after having owned 7 S13's, and 4 of those KA-T of different sorts.

I will post up a full mod list later. I'm a little rusty and have a few Q's I'm sure.

Very clean, welcome to the DOHC club. Maybe some meth injection?

This is what I love about cars, everyone has their own thing, and everyone expresses themselves differently using their cars.

I actually think those wheels are pretty cool...kindof reminds me of a hi tech/stealth version of the old 'Trios' for any that remember those back in the 90s?

All black wheels look really good with that color!

YES! Back on the street!

I'm liking those wheels a LOT! and the wheel fitment seems to be "on-point" in my opinion- not too wide, but just right... well done. :D

I don't think you should change them; mainly because they are very unique (in my opinion at least) and I think the car pulls off their look quite well.
