    It's definitely starting to look a lot like those 3 military spec cars in Japan, which I won't even bother posting pictures of because everyones at least seen the one S14.

    I can respect you saving the Longchamps from getting beaten up, as it is a track car, but I have to say a smaller diameter wheel like those fit this "theme" way better in my opinion, and legit, old, rare wheels make it way more badass.

    Airbrush skills are sick tho.
    Hahaha, and yep the 14 was inspiration for mine about 10 months or so ago when I started, they are all awesome cars.

    You've got a great point about smaller diameter wheels, fat tyres nom nom




    Bit of an update on my daily (the green s14) - This weekend I installed my speakers, sub and amp which makes the drives to work much nicer to listen to music and have it sound decent, I was going to rub back the front bar and side skirts (even got the paper and all) but it was pretty hot still in the afternoon so decided to do it later (probably this weekend or something).

    Oh wow that's a fairly major hand injury, bloodthirsty S14! The worst I've done is was pulling my fuel pump out of the tank and sliced my thumb on the opening of the tank, blood and fuel everywhere arghhh

    I'm glad it was a pleasant suprise And I'm very excited to modify the s14, it's the total opposite to my track car, panels are perfect, neat and tidy, I'll be sure to post updates in here on it!

    There was a massive big list, the diff doesn't single spin, the rubbers on the foot pedals were removed, water squirters on the bonnet not hooked up, not majors but lots of little things they basically went over the car

    This is gorgeous! I'm jelly!

    Thank you very much, all up I have probably spent around 40hours plus just airbrushing the car, still have little touches to do on it, but it's getting there. I found airbrushing the car was a good way I could put myself onto the car

    Okay sure I will try put some more stuff up later on, I just didn't want to bore people

    Thank you! I liken the car to myself, it's a bit rough around the edges but gets the job done when it comes to it haha
