[QUOTE="Franklin, post: 85102, member: 42"] Yes the whole package is really nice. I have to say i miss my car with an s14. it had character. Yes you can make the engine somewhat bulletproof. But its not mainly due to the climate...its mostly the engine itself. Yes u can fit a puller fan. You will have to remove the fan clutch (6hp gain) to do so. But if you are probably limited to only a 14inch puller fan. If you go with a bigger aluminum radiator, then room for a fan will be less...maybe a slimline puller fan. The oil cooler will help too. You will need the oil pan baffle. u have to constantly monitor the oil level, if it gets low for just a bit and u run it hard, your rod bearing #3 will go right away. The rear main seal WILL LEAK!!! Yes if u get it, i'd suggest replacing everything. ALL Hoses (upgrade to samco silicone if possible) Cap/Rotor/Coil/Plugs/Wires Air intake elbow Thermostat Waterpump (always keep a spare - can go anytime) when i had my s14, i always had all the above spares. but if its your daily driver and with KL traffic, you'll hate the S14. You also need to upgrade the AC system. It really sucks in the car. good luck franklin (want another s14...of course attached to a car) [/QUOTE]
