Yeah, it'd be better if we could hear your car instead of that shitty *** song.


I like your front end though............

My mama always said, "If you can't say anything nice about a car, don't say anything at all." So I just wont say anything at all.

I don't recall this being the "***-kiss" forum, so if you post you have to expect whatever you get. Positives, negatives, and everything in between. A car like your reflects the vision of the owner, which is exactly as it should be. Your car isn't really my cup of tea - but it looks like it was a LOT of work and that work appears to have been immaculately done - congrats. As long as you think it is cool, then don't live on the opinions of others becasue no matter how nice it is, someone will always think it sucks. Good luck and be happy.

( OK - I can't resist. I don't want to be a hater, but a couple things you can guarantee in life - The fat lady at the office who is always cold will ALWAYS sit right next to the thermostat, and no matter how much YOU love your music the majority of the people you force to listen to it will think it sounds like synchronized donkey queefing. This is a rotary forum, for f*cks sake, let the motor do the singing! )

Nice... THe body work looks as though it was done well. Not a fan of the skyline lights but to each his own. How much of a hassle was it to get that thing imported?

I think the song was pretty good.. better than garth brooks.. lol.. the importing was pretty easy but this was in 1988. I have two RHD Sa's.. the other one is getting done as we speak.. I will wait until it's done to post the pics. It will be real nice with a wild paint job..should be done in 3-4 months.. My curent 13B 4 port and -se tranny will be sold in a month or so.. so i can transplant my TII with a -re uim .. getting alot of stuff polished for the swap.. Going to run a haltech E8.. hopeing for 300 RWHP until the turbo get swapped out..

Comment on the song: Worst piece of trash I've ever heard, I can't believe these people make so much god damn money.

Anyway, the car looks awesome. Try to get some motor shots/sounds in the next vid if you could. Beautiful work.

Take a vid of the front end at night. I would like to see the lights on. Also where did that front air dam come from. It is very nice. I wont say anything about the back, enough has been said.
