So...

yeah well it all started some 4 years ago, with the purchase of this!
stock as a rock 7mge 86 oct build and auto. brought some gay 17inch pencil dick rims that looks alright but hey we all start off stupid in the beginning :p

then a few months down the track had a minor front accident. & a jza70 halfcut came up for a too good to be true price and the money was laided! (some bonuses came from the cut too! like a spare blitz ECU & steeled turbo's!)

so started the usual process of stripping the car to do the swap, but thought fuck it lets paint the hoebag while im at it. yes i love the colour purple! yes its the colour of fag's death, hobo etc etc and of course royality ;) so blow me if you don't like the colour!

i picked up a custom bullshit frontbar, that at the time IMO thought the ducting was great/ and from angles it looked the goods.

not much more really to say other than over time BPU mods were done, until the poor steels wouldn't make more than 10psi of boost which was the results of the front turbines being smashed up to all buggry! so swapped for a set of ceramics for a while, but just got home from a long day at work when as i was about to open the door...... SMASH! hit on the side of the road by a 80odd lady in a tank!

so after 4months of sorting out insurance and wasting my time with the panel beater she was back in my hands to drive again!

anyhow the bad luck didnt stop there, exactly a week later after getting her back from the panel beaters, i hit a pvc pipe on the freeway :( made a mess of the front bar (bad photo but bar is cracked to shit)

so finally i started to think well, turbos are making some funny noises and thought best to proceed to the next step and go single.

and not too long a GT30R and Tial 38mm WG came up for grabs basicly new.

looks like you've got a nice car man. I'm not a fan of that bumper but I'll bet it makes the IC nice and happy :D

car WOULD be clean, except for that ugly ass bumper! make your car wonderful and replace that nasty shit with the stock bumper, or a more tasteful aftermarket piece.

Really nice color on the car,but I agree,the front bumper covers not my style. I'm going to install a nice Bomex lower and a set of side skirts,THEN i'll be stylin'!!(with a set of springs and shocks to...

1jz ladies :)


thanks for the comments, each to there own i guess :)


i love the front bar, says "open wide" air inside" lolz

ill tell you what though, you have a great attitude. for instance, the comment i made was simply my opinion, and no harm was ment by it. however many many people in your position would get offended and upset. they dont realize that when they ask for people opinions, thats what they are going to get.

at any rate, good luck with the car!

out of every1 here lagged, GJ, CT ect: none of u caught or im assuming u didnt catch his bumper is installedon the wrong year.
u have an 87-88 model, ur after market bumper is for an 89+, thats why it doesnt fit properly.
make it fit better and get rid of the slouch from the blinkers down and it will look badass.

so far it look nice.

um.... NO!

89+ style bumper will bolt up no problem to a pre 89 mkiii.

the fitment of the actual bumper he is using however, is an issue all its own. i cant really tell if the fitment is that bad, however that would be a manufacturing or installation problem.

the year has nothing to do with it
