	not exactly retro I know, but this is going to be our main demo car once the shop is all up and running properly. few days after I picked her up (after id removed the spoiler to investigate the rust) going with a wide chargespeed kit, so pretty much stripped most of the interior out and front end off. surprisingly there was very little rot. sills had a few bubble, which have been ground back and treated and a couple of diddie patches on the inner wings/strut top area. Then got to dummy fitting the front end, along with a carbon bonnet 20mm wider wings on the front and 50mm wider on the rear, so I needed to source some decent low offset rims. Spent ages trying to find something to suit and decided I was gonna have to convert to 5 stud hubs. these are just mock up wheels.. came across these which should suit far better... 265/40/17 for the rears and 225s for the front. thought about calling in a favour with a powder coater mate of mine, then broke out the polishing gear, just to see what I thought... came out pretty well I think.....?? front sits spot on and I should be able to lose alot of the negative camber on the rear and make them sit well in the bigger wings once they're on, 265s aren't cheap either, so don't want to go crazy with the camber its actually resting on the arch!! fitted some leathers out of an s14 and few essential gauges.. thats about as far as it got at the moment. taken abit of a back seat what with trying to find permises and what have you. couple of other random pics of bits for her front mount intercooler set of 4 pots feed back....?

	charge speed kit isnt too bad, better than the URAS kits everyone jizzes over. whats the intended use for this car? the kit is one normally associated with a drift car so am i right in thinking it might be a drift car? saying that youve put leathers in and your name is incarsolutions so maybe just building a nice car?

	going to be a bit of an all rounder really. gonna take it up to about 280-290 brake and give it loads of toys to slow it down. gonna have fairly big ice system, full on security features and a TVR candy apple red paint job, sprayed over ford silver frost. Bit a a show car really, but want to keep it useable
