The car was a GLS.... with stock 12A. Purchased new 12A engine and fabricated a RARE 12A Turbo. The GSL-SE emblem and rims were from another GSL-SE I purchased.

Your car is absolutely gorgeous, man. Simply amazing...

I generally don't like the sleepy eyed headlights, but they look perfect on your car. That beast of a 7 seems to be worth every penny.

...Beautiful...

P.S. Go for an RX-3 project... I want one of them so bad.

Thanks guys.....
I really appreciate all your comments and props.
And for those guys with projects..... Im sure you understand the things you go thru...... like the long nights, weekends spent at the shop, all kinds of frustrations............ and if youre married.... the constant complaing from your wife about the time and money you spend.
I just hope to do well at ROTORFEST.
