So as i was walking outside to take the trash earlier today i ran into this little gem parked in front of my house. Unfortunately for him he was parked where i put my trash cans, so i keyed the SOB.
Now i have seen this car in pictures before but never in person. I must say, the paint/color on the car is absolutely beautiful and stunning. Even all my old neighbors were commenting on the car. The bodywork looks flawless and i could seriously sit on the lip of the rear wheels. I think it was 345's on the rear. From what i remember this car also has a 6spd and a cosworth motor with twin gt30's.
Oh and when i say keyed, i mean ran inside like a little girl and grabbed my camera.

Man, I stumbled upon this old Super Street article about this black, Supra from Japan with huge turbos and shit. The Recaro Pro Racer SPG in that car turned out to be the exact seat I bought off Up Garage and now sits in my car. Small world.

Holy fuck, after looking at that OMP Rally steering wheel, mine could also be from that car too... I'm not sure how common it is to drill holes in them for shit but my OMP rally has a hole drilled in that exact location.. Fuck man, hella small world.

I live near PCH so the more exotic cars are seen pretty often. This car was cool to see in person for me in front of my house because i had read the build thread a while ago, and seen it in various magazines and such. Even if you don't like the way it looks you have to appreciate the quality of the work and the motor itself.

From the exterior to the interior to the god damn engine..... haters will be haters I guess. His f*cking 2 wheels probably cost more than your cars, the engine internals would buy two 240's.... his triple plate carbon clutch would support you're wanna be drifting habits for a year.

You're an idiot.
Who gives a shit how much it costs? It's still ugly.
Is it that hard to comprehend that people dislike it, or are you just that dense?
Why don't you get off this FX guy's nuts. Ooooh triple plate clutch. Yes, we're all soooo poor we've never even heard of one of those before. His wheels are fucking garbage; even if they are expensive, they're hideous.
I applaud the guy for the effort, but his taste in cars is just too HIN.

The car might not be to everyone's taste but the work put into it still kicks ass. If you are building a drift car of course the money would be better spent on things in pursuit of track performance. No reason to hate though.
To those who run 10 tone 240's with unpainted aero because they can't even afford a cheap paint job and run a gutted interior for "weight reduction" stop hating just because you don't have the money to complete your goals.

with all the effort spent on this car I would of liked to seen the wheel arches and the frame raised 2-3 inches so it could sit like a wagon instead of an suv

Is a Hollister Shirt better than a Hanes Plain Tee?
The Hollister shirt is gaudy and only people who think they have taste wear them. That plain tee although it may be cheap is simple, elegant, and you aren't afraid to get it dirty. To add to that fact, Hollister is just what you wear when you can't afford the really good stuff but you want people to know you still have money.
In summation Hollister sucks.
Hollister = FX

This is Zilvia.net where S-Chassis parts are sold to people (guys, boys, teenagers, girs,etc.) for $10 sometimes. This is not HIN magazine. I bet the ownwer of that FX has never baught or sold anything on Zilvia.net.

Well if you really did not care you would not have responded. So you get owned there ghetto surfer boy. Oh and you sound like a loser 16 year old.
Its not about a virtual throne jackass. Its about respect of the forum and the people on it, something you seem to lack complete understanding of.
Its about being around long enough to see quality but to also have taste. In my opinion that car is ugly. It might be quality, it might have a decent build. It does not change my opinion of it.
Oh and just because it might have cost him a lot does not always mean its good either.
As far as the car in my gallery goes, its completely different now, but you know what? I don't need approval from people like you on it.
You seem to be pretty ghetto and pretty much a loser. Your statement of "a Vato robbing a train is A+ to you", pretty much means you're not to be trusted and are probably responsible for stealing peoples cars.
Get the fuck out of here loser its people like you that ruin a community.
Oh and for all the people posting about if the car was a 240sx or Z, we would like it better? Well duh.
People, this is a 240sx/Z forum, you can't expect people on here to fall head over heals for a souped up SUV. Hell most of us hate SUV's.
If you guys are so stuck on loving SUV's, great! Go join a SUV forum and stop posting stuff that's not going to interest most users here.
Oh and stop getting offended when we state that we don't like it. Its our opinion, which we are entitled to have.
