    now that the body is finished we'll probably begin working on putting together the new engine, so estimated time is about 2 months, but i'm more focused atm on finishing up suspension and handling.

    yay! RE-01R's arrived today, can't use em on the rear yet though no where near enough power to spin hehe.
    Also have reinforced the tension rod brace that hold it to the radiator support with plates and bars, will have pics soon, had a drive as well and it's awesome, steering response has increased again.

    Put in the tension bar a few days ago, as to whether it did anything I'm not sure, the steering is already insanely responsive, but I think.. a small suspicion that it did tighten it up even more.

    Hey guys, i haven't updated this for ages, but not a lot has been done lately, just lots and lots of drifting and small parts here and there.

    My shipment of parts (frp doors, carbon bonnet etc) arrived at a total of $5100. Now my wallet has no money left, but again I am caught buying a few more parts to finish the car off. Such as this beautiful LCA



    Have been mainly working on the new engine, hopefully to get it done before this seasons drift is over, it's been delayed too long . Sanding frp doors and fitting the zenki lip to kouki bumper is not much fun, but hey it looks good, here's some teasers although its not on properly yet and the whole thing will be painted blue like the car.





    Cheers, will write a proper update soon.
