Welcome to my thread, I have been a long time lurker and have finally bitten the bullet and bought my self a Japanese classic. The car was bought unseen and was first delivered to me a day after doing the deal. Was covered in bird poo looking sorry as ever and making me wonder if I had bought a rotten Apple.
The car arrived with a shonky front bumper and faded paint on roof, bottled and driver wing.
What the plan? Lower it Get bbs style 17s Lower it And colour code bumpers anf sort paint work. Deadline is to have it Done during the summer holidays.

Bought a set of these very retro indeed ... These speakers were a lucky find, it's a bonus that they are brand new and fit like a glove on rear shelf. They don't make Japan cars how they used to. All the new J stuff now either rusts to bits as seen on civic eg's or just falls apart when it has a bump

Bad news went to clean up the rear arches as they were starting to bubble and instead chunks were falling off from the lip or the arch. Never welded or dealt with rust before. Don't know if this is a major job or can be fixed cheaply
