Awesome project, im insanely jealous...i have only 1 question.. Why start with such an expensive car if you change everything about it? I could understand taking the original car and making a few small changes (colour etc) but you seem to have change almost everything about it, including the engine. Makes me wonder wouldnt it have been easier and far cheaper to buy a standard car/damaged car, and do the work to it instead?

Just installed my Facelift panels from a US spec. except the one where my tacho is. i had to use my jap spec panel around the tacho since US spec isnt made with the 3 small holes.

had to do some cutting but looks great. '

Tanx alot guys.

it took alot of tme rebuilding the loom and hiding all the boxes. but it looks great in the engine bay.

the fuse box is now located in the glove box.

but with my bad luck the turbo gave up on me. so im looking for a new one.

does any of you guys heard of Master power turbos? they got last week a new version called Type R that im concidering.
