i've seen pics of the S15 front on the fastback...
not sure if it's the same boostdynamics kit or not.
most kits that are made for the RPS13 are called the 'strawberry face' kits i believe.. not sure

15 in japanese is pronounced "ichi go", which also means "Strawberry face" (hooray for engrish). strawberry face just refers to S15 conversions in general. they used to call the s14a the strawberry face, because it was basically the 15th silvia front end, even though it was only a half generation.

You're almost right about the term. "Ichigo" means "15" (ichi = 1 go = 5) as well as "strawberry".
Thought I'd clarify the term a bit more.
MisterT> But I bet you didnt know that "Mr T" doesnt have a mowhawk, its actually an African hairstyle known as a "Mandinga"
ahhhhhhh! :)

yes i have heard that one before, one time i watched "who wants to be a millionaire" (gayest show EVER), and the question was "what kind of hairstyle did MisterT make famous?" and the correct answer was mohawk, which is wrong on both counts...he didnt have a mohawk (not exactly anyways), and i wouldnt really say that he was the one to make them famous.
however, has van DID go fast!

Well if it works, Were can i buy this conversion for a 89-90
pathetic.. that show is simply pathetic! :) oh well, i've always admired your technique Mr. T.. I've watched all the A-Team episodes and love your form! The control in those drifts and how you guys slide the side door open to shoot other vehicles chasing you.. excellent.
PS: How much HP is the van pushing out nowadays? I saw the episode where you connected NOS too - Face stole it from a dentist. How much w/ and w/o NOS? :) :) :)

well the van is currently sporting a 650HP 427ci v8 with 720lb of torque, however you never know when i will have to play mcguyver and put in a jet engine or something. the most impressive part of the van however is the suspension setup...full coilover setup, sway bars as thick as your forearms. these are neccessary to hold drifts in a 2-ton vehicle at 100+ miles per hour. I was dissapointed when all the riceboys copied my awesome spoiler.
i dont have the n2o setup anymore, i put it in the battle wagon i built out of a greyhound bus with welded on armor plating and gun turrets from last weeks episode.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah ####! You saw that episode huh? ####, an a-team fan.. how good it feels to find people who "understand"
I bet you dont remember the name of Murdock's dog though!!! :)
