    Best mod's for S14's: 1) Rear locking collars for the subframe (or solid) 2) Coil-overs. Totally changes how the car handles, and stops it from feeling like it's tucking it's front wheel underneath itself when turning fast. Plus you get some beautiful trans noise coming through after the rear axle is hardened.
