Orange RE Amemiya GT2002 FD3S from HIN Miami '03

Does anyone have any more photos of the orange RE Amemiya GT2002 FD3S from Hot Import Nights, Miami 2003? I found 7 photos on carandmodel.com, but that's all.

Take away the kanji stickers, kanji badging, and a few other cheap items and its a damn clean FD3S!

I saw that car in person at a car show here in Panama City Beach, FL. It was too much for my taste but still a cool car. I didn't like the interior ... to much **** going on in there.

Weird. I don't know why its doing that. I must have some sort of hotlink protection turned on with my web server and didn't realize it. Sorry 'bout that. I'll post in here when I've figured out how to fix it.

I was all ready to buy that kit from chuck when I saw that car, and it ruined it for me. I do alot of shows in the boston area and the last thing I want is to be looked upon as copying an idea of a guy who lives for the show circuit. But oh well.

Especially since HE copied it off of another forum member here. ( don't recall the name, just the story.) If I am correct that is the infamous Jay Laub's car. QUOTE: " It's the only one with this body kit in the USA. Noone else can get it"

Always good for a laugh when i see this car posted

i don't like the wheels, the stickers, or the color, but everything else is pretty good i guess, although i would never do that to my car

i like it. i think the body work was cleanly executed, but if he kept it black and got rid of the sponsor decals, it would look better. and considering it is a consistant best of show at Hot Import Nights im sure he could care less about everyones opinions. just my opinion.

Looks absolutely ridiculous.

I can't believe people do things like that to one of the all-time great sportscar designs. It looks like something a 12-year old would like. Can you picture an adult doing this to their Porsche, Ferrari, or Lotus? Jeez.

Also, winning best of show at "hot import nights" isn't exactly the good taste seal of approval.

WOW! Someone has unlimited funds for there fd! I would personally change or take off a few things but non the less, it is a bad *** fd. If I'm not mistaken, that same car use to be black with a C-West body kit, but he decided to change it I think. I'd roll it!!!

Wheels are RO_JA's and I think their great.

Website: http://www.rojawheels.com/

Finally some one with the ballls to put something else on his FD than Volks TE37, Fikse or HRE.

Wheel shown is the Formula 7,

I'm still thinking to go for the Formula 5

I haven't heard anything but bad about RO-JA's.

BTW, why would you even consider them if you had the option to get Fiske or HRE's anyway?
