morning, and since i ride the nissan train and have for a long time let me ask you what your goals are? are you going to drift? grip? mountain run? show car? daily drive? basic tune? swap or KAT?

the civic is nice and yeah 5 grand is a good price for a S14 if you have to do some body work be prepared and take someone with some body expertise with you so you can make sure no suspension pieces are broken or structural damage, also make sure that the 1/4 panel isn't fucked, cause it usually cost a pretty penny to fix those.

if your shooting for a 14 and have been for a while go for it, but realize for a while you'll be slow, bu then again like i said i don't know your goals
