It varies.. Epoxy paint on some of the suspension and etc... and engine paint out of the can on the eithers.

I'm debating about the interior and test fit the Takata Harness on the Spirit R Recaros.

Let me know what you prefer?








Also, got my VS-XX refinished/powder coated and put new Toyo T1-Sport tires. I've heard great things about these and can't wait to test them out.


**They are not going on this 3 rotor project car**

Oct 4th, 2012

Past couple of days, I decided to strip off my spare RZ hub assemblies and fix up the rotor back plates and such.





Fronts fixed and degreased... Test fitted the new DBA rotors.. Shaved some metals so DBA rotors can freely spin.



Rears fixed and degreased



My good friend Bryan from BNR Supercars is going to let me use his cabinet to blast the rust and such off so I can get the prettied up today.


Also, I received some goodies from Turbonetics.



Their GT-K 1050!!!!
