Having driven a good few FDs both stock and modded they are the closet thing to a jap fighter jet experience.

Just my opinion and how I would describe the interior.

Keep up the good work buddy all coming together nicely

Your right about the experience driving them, i converted from the luxury of bmws to my 23 year old jap scap and love even more day by day and still find it enjoyable :grinning:

I don't get why you wouldn't have spent an extra bit of time and done a decent job when you painted it. The boot shut, round the lights, doors etc looks terrible.

Cheer for the input lad, but this car ain't getting built to be a show and shine scene god, it's getting built for one thing. The paint is plastidip so it's not a full respray, I'm not cheating out and skimping, it's function over form. Any knocks or dints that may occur I can just peel it off an do it again!! Real paint job = more money putting it right = less money on maintainer an over night parts from japan lol

I'm not a scene homeboy bud am couldn't careless wether the car is perfect in every way.

If you're planning on drifting/tracking that, there will be definate tears when you kiss a wall with that rear carbon bumper. I'd be getting a standard one for track days!

Looks fantastic though!

Still have some more fabricating to do to get it as functional as it can possible be
