Looks good so far. IF it were mine I would make the heat vent look better and get some paint work done.

overall doesnt look bad, suspension needs some tweaking, maybe some smaller tires. Two tone and engine bay is sick, maybe just some tlc and cleaning up some areas here and there with the car.

Your car looks blisteringly fast. I would not want to race you.

The engine looks like it makes the car go fast.

Every other part on there, as well as the car as a whole has to be the WORST thing I've ever seen.

It looks like you had a 2nd grade class paint it with the leftover paint in the art room.

Looks like somebody left a box of something on the hood. A black box or carton or something that doesn't belong there.

Somebody vandalized your reverse lights section.

The wheels were bought at a "damaged goods" sale at Kragen, right?

At any rate, you wanted opinions.... there they are.

Motor is probably fast. What does it make? 600 horsepower or something?

haha, the reason the car sits so high is because it scrapes every where i drive, i drive this car almost every day.

the thing on the hood is so the turbo dosent hit, it was making a huge dent in my hood and figured it would allow it to let some heat escape, i dont really care for looks just going fast

the turn signal panel is a list of the recent defeats......

the front tires are 17x9.5 with a 20 offset, along with a 15mm spacer and nismo 50mm studs. tyhe rears are 18x12.5 with a 30 offset with nismo studs.

thanks for the input so far!

It's definitely rough to say the least. Engine bay is promising though. Do I dare ask what shape the interior is in?

i'm not a big fan sorry.

The Z31 look hood scoop doesn't flow very well. the two town looks kind of odd as well.

i personally HATE the center taillight garnish....

i like the motor though. what does the car run?

personally i think your car is bad a**. its the type of car where the outside looks rough but its a beast under the hood. id leave it just how it is. id work on the interior if it looks bad. but thats just my opinion

Clicking links pisses me off, put up the image, it's just my opinion.









Honestly? The thing on the hood, whatever it is, is dumb. The crap written on the rear end is gayer than richard simmons with a bag full of d!ck too. The two tone could work but the paint is in a terrible state and leaves the car looking tired and ugly, needs a serious detail job to look decent. Somebody stole your KA24 too and stuck some strange motor in there, you should be pissed off.
