yeah, I'm american living in Japan getting stared at everywhere I go. we shall see on the covers, I thought about doing the Japanese Imperial Navy flag.. might be too cheesy though.

Imperial flag would look sweet navy_army_ww2_flag.gif, or you could go a bit different and really test the artist out and do one of the following:

Imperial flag out of Beer bottles:

Freaky Mickey Mouse one:

Or the Ultimate Cheese.... Hello Kitty:

I also found this cool Mix of the American and Japanese flag. It's called the Obama Rising Sun:

^thanks! Update coming. Been slower than expected progress on the trunk. There is so much surface area on it (slightly more than the R33 door) and it's curved every which way. Looks good though I think.

just incredible. cant wait to see the finished product.

this is the kind of thing i love the forums for, never would of had the opportunity to witness this otherwise; thankyou so much for sharing the photos with us. Keep up the great work!

More to come.

I have to say i'm quite intrigued by this.

At first i didn't like it, but after seeing a few more pics, it's definitely growing on me.

props to you for going through with it. And thanks for keeping us updated with it. I'm sure the end result will look epic!

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
