Shiva: a slow drift build.
 
So the other day I picked up my newest project. A 1988 Vert. This is my first rotary powered car and im damn excited. Going from my Miata to this is nuts. Any who, shes a virgin with 104xxx miles on it and she runs amazing. Hood/trunk needs some paint, but thats about it.

Wasn't a fan of it, especially with the color of the car. I think white looks much better.

skitso 07-16-12 07:37 PM

^Agreed on the white. Can't wait to see them on the car

AngelsAndBombs 07-18-12 08:31 PM

im still jealous that FCs use camber plates and that FDs are stuck with camber bolts...... but those are super duper shiny

AngelsAndBombs 07-20-12 04:10 PM

Still sucks that it doesn't have stock camber adjustment. :(

Anywho, tie rods in, suspension in as of yesterday.
