and what color is this blue?
car seems to have a big hotroad sticker on it so anyone know if it is hotroad kouki replica rear valance or hotroad bumper? maybe pg lindsey can chime in b/c he had a hotroad kouki rear that got smashed? i thought the hotroad kouki rear would be like a lip sorta thing like nissan oem though.. just stipulation it is hotroad. not really sure. can anyone chime in?
i almost certain that he smashed the front

hot road DOES NOT make a full rear bumper
only a add on lip
that's teruaki itai's old 180sx
it was all hot road
yes that is a hot road rear lip addon
price is too much
and yes lindsay blew up his bumper at the track. awesome

that was the one thing about the hotroad kit that I didn't like, was the rear bumper add-on. It just didn't look right with such a killer front end and sides.....

it is a bad ass car.
SO nice.
aaron or lindsay might have some stuff on it.
i know we have the option profile of it somewhere on VHS.
so so so nice. blue and red
it was stolen and he discontinued car building/d1 type stuff after that as far as i know.

Any good importer should be able to get it. It's all a matter of what you are willing to pay.

hot road is BLOODY EXPENSIVE!!
like 3something PER peice (sides are 3something for both of course)
then add shipping
importer mark up
taxes and whatever
you end up well near/over 1k for some fiberglass aero!! WTF
its mega expensive
yeah his car was stolen. 400some PS power wise on a S14 motor! HOT!
love that car..fully built. koguchi said it was stolen when we asked him a few years ago. so sad. i hope Itai still drifts, he did VERY WELL for being a private owner with limited sponsors back in the day. did better then many of the 'big gun' guys. you wanna see in action? Buy Option vol 88 for all the info
it was featurned in an old Battle Magazine too but good luck finding that.
stockf enders with 17x9 +15 and 18x9.5 +12 IIRC. I forget front offset specifics
TE37s in bronze. hot!!
