The usdm ones are wider due to a smaller license plate.

But he will need JDM ones for the fact that he LIVES in NORWAY; where his plates are wider.

Yep its my track car so i want the ones made for narrow license.. thats USDM?
We have licenseplates that fits the narrow ones too but you have to suck/pay-alot to someone get them..
Ive ordered the satoru works knockles from jp now. It was kinda shady buizzz.. i had to transfere 500 usd to a guy thats apperently norwegian, in japan, and he is going to get them for me..
If i get them, its a miracle.. but i payed anyway!
Tomorrow im gonna clamp up stuff and mount styling, interior, gauges++
Im ready for a testdrive on saturday if everything goes as i want! Then i can drift on sunday

Everything is almost done now. I have to clamp the ic-hoses together and get the wiring and fuel/oil lines clamped. The P/S will be mounted tomorrow! I was going to reweld the IC to make shorter piping but decided to go with stock ebay cooler for easy fix if i break it

Drove the car around the workshop today. Bad clutch release even with new internal parts in the clutch pump and slave sylinder.. hmm... I also had a leak with the radiator and the oil in on the turbo. My autogauge cheap-*** gauges doesnt work either :S

Looking good! Orange or paint the area between the FTP and popups black aswell... making it longer if you know what I'm saying.

Too bad if you are not coming, but time is always the thing we have the least of.

Sindre, I need you to pick up the stuff before the 12th of may preferable, since I'm getting thrown out from the garage I'm hiring. So would be nice to get the front out of here before that Hope you are fine and that you are enjoying the weather (I hope it's as good as it is here)

12may. hmm that means i have to pick it up the upcomming weekend... trackday on saturday and the monday after. Give me your cellphone number on a PM or something! We need to figure this out :P I can fex come on sunday and back again the same day.. I have to test the car before 11may(first powerdrift meet) and im competing in gokart championship 3may weekend.
