m3 cabs look weird to me... dunno why.... LOVE the front end on this though. and agree about the rears but it's your car and you should go with what you like

Chin spoilers and eyebrows spoil the cabs. Cabs even more than the saloons look better standard bar nice rims. The recaros dnt look good in cabs either. Only addition I would save up for is a hardtop now you got some wheels.
Standard cabs on a nice drop with good rims and a hardtop is all you need fella.
Just call me gok wan!

Agree with the lads on the tips to make your car better. I love M3's - wish I could
Find a good one, however not a fan of M3 cabbies. Lines don't look quite right some how.
Will be a nice car

Re build the s14
With an engine conversion the car will just loose value and engine conversions which would do justice or honour the car will cost a lot of money

Why does the engine need a rebuild?
Get it as close to standard as possible, Ive got some 16" BBS kicking about.

just a thought fella.i came across the one in the pic 4 yrs ago and not seen another in red since .
yours should be worth a few quid when it's finished .you'll mos probably make a decent profit if you were to sell now .
Win all over it
