I love S15's they're one of my favourite cars next to the FTO.

I won't be putting my money into making the car any faster, just going to get handling mods etc. since they already go hard!

what speed - no traction implies your not really moving.
but who cares...I'm just over no traction, 4wd from now on.

You're not wrong there
and i already have no traction haha. I'm still waiting for pnp or ecu flash so it's undetectable/removable for servicing etc.
Nice looking car, love everything except maybe the front bar... but that's just me. Teins and volks ? FTW!
