I think it looks great, but the missing piece of trim at the bottom of the c-pillar is really bugging me, I'd have to mock up something that shape in vynil or something to stop it drawing my eye.

Good work there mate, big fan of the cream

I'm from a dub/stance background - only thing I would say is that front fitment is pretty far off. Arches look huge overkill for the wheels? Could you space them some more?

Wheels are 18x10.25 et20 and there just not big enough. The camber and final setup hasn't happened yet.

The plan is to go a 18x12 but after a phone call yesterday she may be going a whole different direction wheel wise and I will get stick for it but my "marmite car" game will be strong

Like the look of that if the front wings could have been curved back in towards the door it would be perfect.

Been busy few months doing my bhp shows but back to the car. Final test fit but now to strip down and finish







Engine now out and goodies coming from Brian Crower.







New cae shifter arrived, nice bit of kit





With the abs and everything under the bonnet now gone it was time to think brakes, so gone full compbrake front and pedal box




Rear end will be gtr diff, shafts and twin caliper rear brakes but bracket allows for full fitment to all subaru rear suspension




Just waiting on the frt and rear tubular subframes, going for 8-900bhp on run in and then hit for the 1200bhp up once settled. Its taking its time but all heading in the right direction.

So engine is away to have all this goodness hidden inside





3.4 stroker, lightweight crank edition, Carrillo pistons, Bc rods and 272 Bc cams plus every other bits they do for a 2jz. Heads being ported while there.






Flywheel and ttv racing should help get the 800bhp running in power down to the ground.
