[kartikeya]

This is really really awesome so far.

[ill roller]

in for updates. i wanna see this in person too sometime

It'll still be street driven on the regular, so there is a good chance of that happening.

suspension specs please?

In that picture the front is on koni/gc coilovers with all the extra perches removed, and the rear is on stock suspension.

Because I want to? That and it's easy, cheap, proven, and reliable.

This is going to be absolutely awesome. This shit is right up my alley. SR in a caged e30 vert on equips? fckyes

[runningpanda]

[Obscevator]

looking actually more like a zokusha than a euro car, would fit in beautifully in a nice zokusha vid

[Deltron]

any chance this is AJ off Risky Devil? lol.

[hinrichs]

cant wait to see more of this one

[99sil-teg]

I'm curious on the exterior, are you going to make it nice or kinda rat it out? Curiosity is killing me lol

[FluidMotorUnion]

AJ-

Shit's gonna be straight hood when it's done. That being said, I am in favor of keeping the Playboy banner.

That cage is looking right proper, too. TFWorks does some quality stuff.

Looking forward to more updates on this.

And I must know...were you the one to shoot the JDM M3 that IND put together? Those photos have your style written all over them.

Yeah, I always kinda dug that style, and wanted to carry it through on this car... I had some plans to get pretty crazy, but I'm not sure how far I want to go, so we'll see what happens.

It is indeed.

Honestly I'm as curious as you... Right now I just kinda buying stuff I want for the exterior of the car, and I'm gonna see where it ends up. At some point I'd like to get some nice paint on the exterior and get it all cleaned up, but I'm in no rush. Gotta get a feel for the car and beat the shit out of it some before it's all pretty.

Thanks, I'll definitely keep you guys posted... I also want to get it over to you for an exhaust at some point.

Yeah, the M3 shoot on the forums and speedhunters was from me... I also just shot it for max power and performance bmw, so we'll see how that stuff turns out.

thought i was on r3v for a second


Looks good dude. i dig.

Like I told Dutchy, you are going to love how responsive the SR20DET is in your car. Even though the verts are a tad bit heavier than the hardtops you will still get a good power to weight ratio. This swap is actually more common than you may think but still props for doing something less accepted. Can't wait to see her done!

[ill roller]

Yeah, I'm not really going for the swap because of how different it is, but mostly just because it's what I want most in my budget... If I had the money I'd be f20c swapping it instead.
