Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
THIS is my idea of a sporty car. Responsive engine, responsive steering, good road feel.
The pedals are placed OK for heel-and-toe downshifts (much better than Evo)
Ran into an elk one night, so that was my cue to fix all the body & paint issues.

Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:
DC Sports header, Injen intake, underdrive pulley, Nismo engine and tranny mounts.
Nismo (rubber) tension rod bushings.
Cat-back exhaust made and installed by Top Gun Muffler, Fort Walton Beach. Makes much more torque than the HKS "Hi-Power" a previous owner installed.

Suspension Modifications:
'Suspension Techniques' rear swaybar from a junkyard. (Front swaybar on the donor car was bent)
Generic brake pads in front, EBC "Green Stuff" in back.
HKS Hipermax III coilovers. OMG these things are stiff. Will not pass the "girlfriend test".

Wheels/Tires Modifications:
None.

Interior/Exterior Modifications:
JDM seats from 180SX (left side seat practically new!!!)
Wing from a 1st-gen Neon
Stock steel hood, with vents cut into it.

Future Modifications:
Factory viscous LSD
Cup holder in place of ashtray
Air horn, so I can make people sh!t their pants when they pull out in front of me Read more »

And people question why I wanted a hatchback...
How the F would you get this box in the trunk of an S14, much less an Evo?

Wing, showing planform.
This is a wing from a 1st-gen Neon, and I think it fits the S13 better than the car it came from.
From above, the shape reminds me of the wing on a Spitfire fighter plane

Engine bay, showing the shiny new intake and blue sparkplug wires.
Also shows the rusty P.O.S. header that a previous owner put on it.  Can you believe some dumbass put a 4-1 header on a 4-banger?  The car was gutless below 4000rpm until I replaced that header.

Last picture at the Space Museum parking lot, overlooking the Tularosa Basin.  

While taking the pics at the Space Museum, I realized how many used condoms there were on the ground.  Yeah, they have some classy people in New Mexico.

Wing complements curves.  
My friends can't believe how well the Neon wing goes with the 240SX.  I can't believe the vendor gave me so much lip before selling it to me.  They were trying to tell me why it wouldn't fit a 240SX and I asked "Do you know what a 240SX looks like?" The never answered that question.  I also asked "Do you know how ugly your supposed 240SX wings are?"  They didn't have an answer for that, either.

Hint: The customer is always right, especially when he's an engineer.
