I’m going to be getting back to work on the blue beast. I’ve had it in Canada for around 8 months now and initially started as a basic paint job but I wouldn’t want my reputation to hold me back at just that. She will be a sexy car when she is done. Much like my red JDM Convertible some of you already know of. Anyhow I will keep this updated with pictures as the project gets finished. Most of these pictures will be of me painting and going into detail with this engine bay! She wont be built for going fast but just another pimp ride. All the work done to this car is either done by myself or us at worldcarlink. We picked it up as a private sale with a blown up CA18. Since then the fallowing has been done to her!

Mods including: -4 to 5 lug conversion-R32 Brakes up front S14 out back-S14 V-LSD-auto to 5 speed conversion-S14 SR20DET-Apexi FMIC-Custom intercooler piping-HKS Air Pod-180SX inside trim-S15 Seats

More parts such as wheels and suspension to come. I sold what was in her and in search of new and better goodies. Let the sexiness commence!

Allen, Did I ever tell you that you're my hero?

You really need to bring that car to the states for a couple Shows... How about NOPI nationals... Bring the red one... or the blue one if it's done... to the NICO tent. That would be awesome!!!

Either that... or I need to come to Alberta... That's so cool that you have 2 of the 603 jdm verts.

This sounds like a good plan! I should bring it to an event sometime in the summer! But for some reason I dont think it will make it back to Canada. Might get sold! But I can only hope! I need to get rid of both of these. Blue one will be done for summer also! She will have a new top like the red one and will be very clean! I should have atleast the front end painted in a few days here!

**** that is a 34hr drive non stop for me! Seems a little too far to show off a convertible. I should come with somthing a little bit more powerfull! Somthing with 500hp. Id love to bing one of the verts though but it will be hard to say right now if I can make it or not.

Its been painted for a while though I think when I get back I am going to throw another good coat of clear in her as the texture in it wasnt all that great. Some dust got in her aswell but none the less still lookes a million times better. I doubt anyone will think twice about the condition its in now once everything is back in her but thats just my thaught!

I also have a S15 front here in Japan I think I am just going to have to throw on too. We will see! Id say about a 75% chance I will throw it on and weld up the fenders!

here is the blue sealer. I throw a thick coat of primer under it and just wanted to use the sealer to match the body a bit better as the car will get sealed aswell! I didnt want to have a minor miss match. When I did my red convertible I didnt use sealer as the primer did that for me becuase I painted the engine bay black.





paint time!





and now the clear!
