Cool Babys @ the shop

So heres what i got. Just picked up a 95 s14 that should have been bone stock, but as mankind gets more and more lost in the gadgetry world, there are people stupider than us. Car is in somewhat horrible shape, previous owner attempted to install the right front wheel bearing, install aluminum radiator, and the puddle that has formed in under a hour could easily drown a small village. The car is automatic(yuck), a massive electrical problem that should have me racing through my chilton and allcrappy like a kid in a amusement park with his parents money to spend.
However with all that being said, the rest of the body is in good, shape, car has no sunroof (YESS) I got a set of Tanabe sustec pro adjustable coilovers, rear adjustable toe arms, kyowa 17x7 mega racing rims with, (drum roll please) 215-40 17 ALL THE WAY AROUND, and to add to that they were installed backwards, aluminum radiator (off brand), mega lame pieced together intake. I understand that the only way to learn is DO, but this guy should have left this dream in his head. With that all being said, Time to start pouring every dollar i have, (also $2 bills), into what will become my track car for going to local events, and some not so local ones. Watch out though for I will be contacting and maxing out my resources for this car, as well as going with a powerplant that should put even the biggest tuff guy on alert.
Future upgrades should include perhaps but not limited to the following,
RB26DETT, and everything i can get, perhaps some HKS suspension, vlsd, 17x8 & 17x9 or 10, wrapped in 255/40F, 275/40R (cause I like my tires like my women). Proper tuning and fresh body and paint. I will post pics soon.

If you have a specific question about your situation and a search does not help, then ask.

If you have a build of some sort to chronicle, with real progress and not a list of hopes and dreams, then we should go that route.

If you simply need to introduce yourself, there is this thread for that.

Once you have secured photographs of your car, then this is the place to be.

As it were, this thread serves no real purpose other than clutter for this section, so I will close it in order to not allow people to flame you into submission as a simple new guy.
