I’ve been following Hinson’s work on the S13 and S14 for a while… good shit. My buddy’s RX7 (FD) had Hinson’s kit and overall it’s pretty nice. The paint finish on it is pure crap (for one it’s painted in the first place, I mean come on powder coat it, and two it was obviously packed up w/ the paint still a bit tacky cuz you can see the texture of the bubble wrap in the paint), and the first radiator he sent leaked. But overall everything fits great and it’s a pretty complete kit. Oh, I also don’t really like his torque arm design or tranny mount setup. So I guess it’s really not all gravy. But it works. I can’t wait to see the S14 kit in person.

I’m honestly looking for a clean S14 SE to daily drive for a few months w/ the KA while I find a good donor LS1/T56.
