Not a fan of your wheels/body kit/lights/interior... But it's clean and hella unique! We should have gotten AUTECH verts in the states instead of the ASC ones :-/

QUESTION: Did the AUTECH verts come in K's and Q's trim levels?

^^^ pretty sure they only came in CA18DET autos and a few manuals made for specific orders so would be under the k's trim.

Not a fan of the styling at all of yours but hey your car do what pleases you :)

I own a 1988 CA18DET auto vert havent got it on the road yet as the roof needs replacing and can't find a replacement so will cost around 2 grand to get made up :(

mines pretty standard still got the basics FMIC, exhaust, fuel pump, just put the EBC in and has an aftermarket ecu but not sure what.

Things I have sitting here waiting to get put in are SPL castor, camber and toe arms, silkroad coilovers then I can fit my work emotion XD9's (17x9.5 +15), S14 slotted rotors and calipers.

Future plans are to have it dropped with full aero kit (already has the front) manual conversion and maybe take the highmount setup I have sitting here on another CA18 and put that in :)

tail lights just look to busy, 18s with stretched tires and dookey drop would absolutely make that car, but i love everything else about the car
