Weird, I'm watching it thinking... it sounds familiar somehow... then it hits me... it sounds like an m30 on crack.


If you disagree don't take it personally, I'm going deaf anyway.

Show me the M30 clip and ill see. Personally i dont think so, i love the way it sounds. The only thing i dont like is that the supersprint resonator is touching the heat shield in the back and its vibrating and you can hear it when i rev it up.

Wow!

The first video where it's coming towards you is unreal! I didn't think a 'Airboxed' S14 could be topped!!

good vidz..... what exactly did you mod in your car? Or just running it in Alpha-N with no mechanical mods whatsoever?
I am about to tune up the performance of my S38B38.... in doubt yet if turbo or N/A....

Running the factory 3.91 rear end. It seems long, i was thinking about a 4.10 LSD.

Going to have some dyno runs in the spring, and im keeping the resonators. Want it to stay clean.
