ADM delivered 1983 Levin converted to Kouki Trueno "Saphira"
Weighs in at about 815kg. I'm still thinking of ways to get it down lower.
A bit of background history, it was my first car when I was about 12, I learnt to drive in it, I learnt to drift in it, I learnt to love it, I learnt how to stupidly spend money. I'm 19 now
The worked motor was the very last mod I gave to this car, before that was all suspension/chassis work to be perfectly tuned with a stock bigport 4AGE, which was pretty much on it's way out.
It sees a lot of track time and occasionally a few laps after work.
