Hey...here are the pics I promised...Sorry it took so long, but I've been working around 60hrs a week for the past two weeks, so I haven't really had much free time. Also, the car's a bit dirty because everytime I go to wash it, it RAINS! Anyways...there are quite a few, so sorry for the 56kr's out there. BTW, the S14 folding mirror switch is going to be up for sale here shortly. I will post in the for sale forums when the time comes...As for pics of the folding mirrors, they don't look different, besides the painted triangles, so I didn't bother taking pics of them. I will see if I can borrow my friend's Coolpix 995 and take a quick MPG of them in action and stick it up for download here shortly...










Here's a couple Photoshop jobs I did to figure out what I want to do with my old high mount:

Possibly a rear fog...I've always liked how Euros designed their cars with them in mind...too bad the Japanese never really caught on ('cept on the R34 and a few other select models)


Or just take it out completely



Here's the mirror switch that will be for sale shortly...

Hey...thanks for the compliment...Yeah, the tail lights are a direct swap.  One of the easiest things I did actually.  I got mine from a guy who wrecked his '97 up front.  I paid around 275 for the whole setup.  Not too bad considering the lights are around 160ish from the dealer new, and the center panels...That's where the dealer really sticks it to you.  300 some bucks for the '97-'98, but get this...the '95-'96 is like 340ish!  What the heck is that?!  I just didn't feel like spending 300 bucks on a part that was basically a reflector, minus the reverse lights of course.  Anyways, next on the list is a set of Kouki side skirts that are sitting in my garage.  I think I'll try and get something done with my old high mount brake light at the same time.  I just can't decide if I want to make it into a rear fog or not...Anyone have any suggestions?  After that, the next mod is going to be HIDs...Can't stand my piss poor halogens anymore!

Well now all you need is rims, a body kit, your steering wheel on the right hand side to match that Japanese license plate. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''> &nbsp;Then you will be in there like swim wear now that shit is old. Other than that The wing Sux. Oh wait I am sorry you did not ask me for my opinion. Sorry I will hold it to myself next time. J/K Your car could look like mine someday &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>?? Other than that I like the color. I have that same JDM folding mirror set up to it is a good option. Oh yeah there I go again! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>

I really don't want a body kit though...I'm just gonna slap some Kouki side skirts on and call it a day...I don't really like many of the S14 body kits out there, and the ones I do, are all in Japan, so their hella expensive...I just need to move to Japan and get a real one...LOL. &nbsp;I like your Nismo wing...one of the 4 wings I like on the S14...Navan, Kouki, Nismo, and Kansai...

Man I have to say even tho I was kidding in the post I put up before this one I have to say I am very impressed with the way you handle criticizm. I really like your car as a matter of fact I bought my little brother the same year and color as my Silvia and I also bought a S13 coupe since I have a few Silvia front ends on hand when I come back for a vacation to the states I am going to ship them back to build some SR powered 240's when I get back. I have been looking for a few coupes to buy so if anyone has any beater coupes they want to get rid of for a fair price just let me know. Prefeably in the East Texas area. I have my reasons I need about 6 coupes and 6 hatchbacks.
