Pretty sure it's hydro-graphics.

Same process used to apply camouflage to guns with composite stocks and stuff.

How old are you? if you don't mind me asking.

The car is absolutely inspiring. I cannot personally find anything wrong with it. It is original, and really well done.

I don't know exactly how to phrase this: I want to have your babies.

Nicely done car.
I love the wood grain elements. Has anyone seen this treatment done to wheels?
And what's a "goon"?

Goon = old JDM wagon. Typically Datsun 510 wagon, but includes others.

Willy, welcome aboard. I've got a few classic Datsuns as well, and I've always liked yours.

A buddy of mine does a TON of SR swaps into Roadsters out in CA. He just built a stroker motor for my 411 wagon, and we're discussing the possibility of doing an S15 engine in my half-year Roadster.

Thanks, to be honest i don't remember names cause so many people came to me to shake my hand... I felt like a celebrity, I do remember that he was a mod. In Here.

I'm an electrician.

Is any one going to XDC in jersey next weekend? I just register my car for their show

I'm thinking about going to XDC, don't know yet, next weekend is kinda busy for me and I'm not a big fan of E-town. I want to go since I missed FD @ Wall NJ this year and I've missed every ClubLoose event so far this season.

thanks, Wish I live in CA, around here is hard to find some one good to work on our cars.

This car was put together @ CIP (240sxmotoring) in Millford CT. I'm very happy with the quality of their craftsmanship

I've seen done the s15 on the rodaster, but I decided for the s14 engine :)
