Mabru's Soarer

[mabru]

Just after I got it to present or pretty close..

Just put a hood on it, semi-flat black for now..

New heart for it..

Going back together with new guts

Sitting on the stand in the dining room..

New bumper..

Just about ready to go..

From grey/pea soup green to a black interior..

Old and the new..

Swap in the driveway

Original setup, things have since changed!

Different wheels, got a good price on them..

Second coming, turbo change, minor cosmetics and a few more lines

In for body and paint work

TADA!

The tail lights are back to stock, I got sick of the round ones. The blue wire shielding has been changed to black (it was a bit much) and it still needs finishing touches on the tune. We did manage 2kilos on it which was eye opening to say the least.

Haha, yeah they're gone now, back to the OEM lights.

 

[Mr.PFloyd]

WOW. What an amazing looking car!
Makes me want to go to tokyo one day just to experience the car scene there.

Thanks for all the kind words, it's pretty much a DIY project. I don't weld and do body/paint so I can't take credit for those.

Here a couple taken this morning.

LMAO- This is my idea of the stereotypical 'underground racing' Japanese mechanics, right down to the moptop hairdo's and combat boots! Your car is really awesome!
