I remember this car from HIN '09. Not a big fan of S15 front on S13's but other than that car was mint wasnt there like another rim inside the car, and car was parked somewhere around the GTR and R33GTR?

And anyway if there is so many of you guys in this area. How come I dont see that many cars on the street?

The color is a mix of metallics and is from an Acura, but I wiuld say it's a close match to the stock gray in 92. No dyno numbers yet, needs tune.

If anyone is ever in the area, please stop by. We love visitors!

i personally think the wheel fitment could have been much better even if youre not going for the stretched look. the rear quater panels look bad . But the rest of the car is nice!

This car was the whole reason i picked up the S.S. issue. This car is too sexy. the color scheme is perfect. I personally would have done the rears a bit different but this car pulls it off just beautifully.

Thanks guys

The car isn't for everyone but its great for me. We have some work to do still as far as tuning the suspension and the turbo setup. No power goals as of right now, just want the car to respond well for road course type driving.

Thanks for all the kind words and constructive criticism.

Yea, its 2.5-3 hours. It was worth it though. I bought stuff for my build, and they were a great group of people to meet.
