    Hey all I've been on the forum for a while now and thought maybe i should contribute to the site with my very own hachi.
    Ive owned my levin for about a year now and slowy getting her up to scratch.
    Bought standard with only a blacktop 20v she was perfect for me.
    the build so far has envoled only minor but very important modifications.
    starting with footwork
    AJPS coilovers with TRD blue inserts
    Cusco camber tops
    Modified Ke30 caster arms
    Ke30 Lcas
    TRD blue rear absorbers 8 step adjustable
    5kg springs front and about 4kg in the rear
    Currently rebuilding my t-series with a TRD 2 way and Weir 4.778 ratio
    Brakes are jdm front calipers and rotors running project mu hc+ pads front and b-spec pads rear
    and thats about it so far im currently doing the body work right know getting her ready for a coat of fresh paint.
    Body work consists of a Toyota front lip and a TRD duckwing.
    Painting her in Toyotas Panda.

    And sanding the bog back. the most difficult part in all this is getting the lines of the hatch to match the wing. we attached the wing with sika and pot rivets, once the sika set we ground the heads the rivets and proceded to mold the wing in with the hatch.

    The car had been in a crash before i had bought her. as you can see here there's a crack in the front bar to fix this I was going to pay a platic welder to fix it.
    But I decided to do it myself.

    As you can see here all i did was take a heat gun and heat the bar up to the point it started to melt using a flat blad screw driver to spread the plastic across, sanded the area back lightly and applied bog to smooth it out. once there is paint on the bar you wont even notice the repair.
