Page 84 — English draft translation

The new S14 had not yet appeared in a drift specification, but it was already one of the stars of the Auto Salon. Aero parts that suited its sharp headlights were everywhere. All of the cars had been finished in an aggressively stylish way, so naturally they drew the eye. Even with the shape changed a little, flashy aero still suits the Silvia perfectly.
