Thanks for posting that one. I've always kicked around the idea of going the Amemiya route with my turbovert. Is the wing off a 3000GT? It looks very similar to the never to be made again Racing Beat Vert wing. Very nicely done.!!
If you find the time PM me the details of who you sourced the lights and such from.

The body was done before I bought the car... and is the only thing that hasn't been completely torn down and rebuilt - because unlike the rest of the car, it appears to have been done correctly the first time. Cant help you on the lights :/

How's it going? Do you have any pictures of the hoses you need to know where they go, or the names of the hoses? My vert is not on the road yet, I need a custom downpipe made otherwise I'd stop by so you can refference with my engine.

Thanks. She's a little rough around the edges, but a little love will do wonders. I just picked it up last summer and haven't had a chance to get working on it too much yet, just did wheels and coilovers. The plan once I can get it out of storage is to get a lot of bodywork done, repaint the whole car, swap out that horrible auto trans, and fix/replace misc interior pieces.

Had her since she was born....my 4th RX
Here is my baby! It looks fuzzy with funny looking 'stuff' on the door and must be the sun. She is as close to perfect as she can be.

Thanks a lot guys! I love it, great condition but the hood did get damaged due to the hail storm we had late last year.
I'm located in Colorado Springs, but always cruising up to Denver

Hail yes
Road Pirate: Love the Springs! When I was first on loan in Denver for my job I always had a rental car and noticed many cars in the office parking lot had blankets on their hoods/windshields really often. Being from Virginia I had no clue so of course I ask and was told it was due to all the hail. After hail storms there were mobile windshield trucks EVERYWHERE....great business to be in out there! We have hail here but NOT like that. I heard that Denver area was the hail capital of the USA. I got caught in a couple of bad ones on I-70 out there and could not get out of the car and it felt like the car was being destroyed.

They also slashed the seatbelts and stole the cd faceplate... total bill for all the damages was @4600! But thank god we had some sort of insurance. Allstate screwed us on the bill and gave us money for a new top and some used seats out of a junkyard which were $100! But I ended up just using the money towards getting them redone like new .
