98% of these cars have been driven hard! Its something u need to understand im sure most of the members here have had to redo there motors for some reason or another its just the nature of the beast

Thats a pic of the engine bay, you cant see it so well, but that wastegate was welded onto the orig manifold with a pipe that looked like it was used to kill somebody with, the welding job was probably done with a blow torch and the rest of the bay had wires hanging around. the body wasnt to bad, but had loads of scratches with touch up jobs and the interior looked like a kid was teething in on it. Gearbox/dif has a shocking whine and the wheel bearings were squicky, never knew they could make such a noise. But i see the car has been sold :/

S13 sr has a flat top as in your pic. The s14 has a notch on the back.

Biggest difference you can see is the intake. S13 - bottom mount s14 - topmount.
