man, you have that digital number on the bottom and we dont! I like the spoiler...only b/c the blinkers are on it! Pimpin!!

Did you pay a lot of money to get USDM tail lights and bumper lights? No wait, saber has those stock right? Only inspire has clear bumper lights and clear tail lights?

Interior lights are that dull white stock yucky ones...I replaced them with higher output/wattage super-whites.The cluster is stock so....analog,except for the odometer.I like analog better anyways...I hate digital speedo and really hate digital tachs.

Actually the lights on the wing arent blinkers...they are just marker lights / parking lights.Everything on my car is factory.Some cars have clear ones but must have orange or yellow bulbs.Like many American cars have all red taillights...turn signal is red too.Those cars sold in Japan have amber turn signals...they cant be red.All taillights on American cars have custom tail lights for use in Japan.

The Saber cost me about $300.00! Yes,three-hundred-dollars.Man,used cars are very cheap.Its the 2-year inspection and tax that are expensive.Inspection is about $1000.00~$2000.00(every 2 years) and the tax about $500.00 every year.I remember buying a '89 Civic hatchbackSiR for $500.00,all TANABE tuned too.

Depends on which ones you want.GT-R,GT-ST(non type-R,but turbo),GT-s(non turbo)and model(R-32,R-33,or R34).An R32(2000cc),if you look around,you can get one for @$2000...descent condition.The 4-door R33 can cost around $20,000 and 2 doors $25,000.R34 2doors are still pricey at over $30,000 and the 4 door a bit under that...An s14,s15 cost anywhere from $8000 to $25,000.Maybe you've seen it somewhere but my friend here has the GT-R R34 front and rear converted S15 Silvia...quite famous.
