And also gotta color code the side skirts as well lol.... lip is staying black, because i love how the skylines gtr pull it off... so thats my exterior inspirations :D
wow man that is sexy, i should get pics up by tmro , all i can say is mine looks similar to yours but im just not that expert at the mods n stuff. all i got is a cai ... but atm im just doing the look off my car then the engine and so on..
but yeah your car is great man , unlucky that ur in melb cud of went on a two man cruise lmaoo
initially my car wen i got it looked pretty ricer man but yeah i knew it had potential so yeah i began making it looking top notch , money is a biggie so yeah i started on the smaller goods then later comes the tank stuff. like i said il bring the pics from b4 and present and u can see a difference . what i need now is just foglights, rear em1 lights, side skirts and maybe rims if i have enuf money. also i bought a rear bumper which is the stock one and im going to stick that on the back but its red and i wanna get a rough idea of how much its gna cost me to get it resprayed??
just wondering how much did u put into ur car?
cheers man ur car is pree amazing and il try make my top notch ;)
thanks man.... melb is prbs worse state to be in, already epa'd once lolQuote:

so far i estimate total cost is roughly 5.5k of parts alone, depressing just thinking about it ahahhahaa... but at-least it brings me joy when driving it :D
but than add another 2-3 k for servicing... lol, just keeps adding up!
Id imagine if labor was involved, it be closer to 7k easy, but everything is DIY
Cant wait to see what other EJ are out there, always wondered what else is out there lol
@ Importsneezer yeah man your ride is sick , ive seen it before. was it on carsales?

parted it out and sold it before i spent too much on it and cant go back hahh
thats sexy man, miss the car or what? if i had of know i would of bought yours but again tahts job well done
Thanks man. Yeah I miss it hardcore :( slow but handled well and looked fresh for a 13yo car. Plenty of mods and cheap to run and insure. Cant lose!
Not bad on the track either
BTW your car is coming along nicely. Take it one step at a time and get the right parts. You will end up with a nice car if you plan it right. It's very easy to get it wrong with the ej8. Good luck!
