[CrispyFries]

Started shaving the bump strips the other day, there's a decent layer of bog, so will have to sand it all back to see what I've got. Going to remove the bumpers and see if I want to leave them off or replace them with early model ones.

It's not going fast by any means.

[KURAUN]

Yeah, it's going to be a very slow process - I haven't decided if I'll do enough to get it registered first, or do a complete strip and do it properly from the start. Each has advantages and disadvantages

Didn't mind the study tiles, looked alright, maybe just how they look through the camera though.

No quotes yet - have to collect stuff like certificate of title, existing plans and stuff first.

I don't have any walls to come down, I do want to add a larger door opening in a couple though, and some bigger windows

you need to roll your guards a bit more. not a fan of that look, wheels will look great on a 350z, v35 or r35 GTR (maybe) with wider wheel arches but not on an R34. wrong wheels for stretched tyres etc.

major concave or dish on stretched tyres

ash you need a 235 on the front and a 245 on the back and roll your guards accordingly

[KURAUN]

No no, it's not regoed, but I could do that first - haven't decided yet

Decided on a colour though - I think lol

[dezz]

Agreed, those wheels look HIV+

agreed, that's an oversized rim for wheel arch and it looks like you couldn't afford low profile tyres in the right width to maintain the same rolling diameter.

In layman's terms... that just looks habib spec with povo tyres in those pics.
