Robo86 - might be interested in selling the hoshinos soon if i do ill hit you up first man

Kona Kid - Have no idea what the spring rates are just crappy king springs i have trd 6kg rears and AJPS 8kg fronts but not too sure what rates to run so I'm just having a bash with the king springs and hopefully will get a better idea and some advice from some other guys.

Its a track dedicated car so i havnt even ever thought about that but alot of people say they use a fair bit of fuel.

Getting JDM Quads fitted up now have to make custom brakets and even then they don't really fit that well. Ill post some pics up soon and get every ones thoughts.

Pale yellow paint looks heaps ghetto. Get that thing slammed with deep wheels!!!

Fuck oath it does but it aint a show car its just a thrusher got plans to get it re painted in the future but worrying about its performance first.
Id love to slam it and get some deep dish rims but I'm planing on doing some rallys and my local car club is on gravel and gets pretty rough at the end of the day with 50 cars going around it.
So for the moment its look are going to stay pretty much the same just going to improve my driving skills first then worry about looks later.
