Some night shots for me last night (shortly before getting defected whilst driving around looking for more good photo locations .. *sigh*) ..

You should be able to click on those for a larger image too.

Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the results.

Certainly not bad for a cheapy camera - just wished it had raw capability so I could have done more with them post-processing...

dude! what did u get done for? :)

Guy was just looking for something to get me for - tried for the tint (but it's factory), ended up doing test and finding the exhaust was too loud, of all things (annoying after I'd requested the original installer of the exhaust some 2.5+ years ago to make sure it was legal).

Regency subsequently took their piece of flesh in finding more things wrong (excessive movement in rear steering rack - my suspension guy had seen it long before and said it was well within spec), and factory xenons (which weren't removed during compliancing. Oddly enough they didn't even test the exhaust when it went through (which was the thing it was defected for!)

Wow Jenna. IMO the 2door spoiler looks ALOT better then the standard 4 door item. It looks excellent in the first shot.

Yup - I'm surprised more people don't do it. I'm stunned how much nicer it looks.

Now I just need to follow-up with the rest of the factory body-kit. I have the rear pods sitting in my garage, and I've organised for picking up side-skirts in the next week. Then I'll just need to get them fitted and resprayed.... should be good!

Good on ya stan! Just goes to show you can make a strong potent automatic.

If I hadn't have bought my gtr I def. would be aiming for something similar in my sedan. Always wanted to make a rb26 automatic :P

Thanks mate! It's taken a long time, but we're there ;)

Awesome Stan!! Congrats buddy.

Cheers~ Congrats on your ride in the "Best of the Best" issue - gotta be happy with that!

Thats one insane GTT satanic!

Thanks :P

There's a build thread being written up here (http://forum.jdmstyletuning.com/showthread.php?t=19866) if you're keen. Feel free to sign up and comment / join in on the rest of the JDMST fun.

Damnit, stupid thing about browsing this thread from work means i cant see half the photos :D

i can see a few, so im going to say

Nikolce: love that first pic, the sky looks wicked behind the car

Danski: loving that pic of your car with the river behind, glimpse of the city, very nice!

and John-e-boi what made you decide on blue rims???

I havent taken any proper photos of my car yet, going to do a shoot with my bf (if i ever get a spare day ever again)

passive - to be honest, no idea. just thought i'd try something different. i ended up liking them, so they're staying until i think of another wild colour i can go for lols. everyone seems to have safe colours. white silver black bronze. thought i'll just give it a go. some dislikes it, some loves it. each to their own i guess.

goldzilla - thanks dude. glad you like it (hoping you're talking about my car and not my mates rx7 with meisters lols) =)

satanic - your car is intense dude. awesome job

Dude, I'm definitely referring to your car - FD3's are nice, but your car kills it in those shots!

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
