Default Red aristo in modified mag

Anyone read the write up of the red aristo in the new modified mag. Like those side mirriors. Looks like the one that was posted on here a little while back. Has anyone did there side mirrors like that, and if so how hard was it. Would like to pick up a pair of these. The engine looks a little dif to, like to intakes. Looks good. Nice write up also.

"engine looks a little different"? You mean a WHOLE LOT of difference? There's a HKS T-51Kai turbo kit slapped on a 2JZ-GTE powerplant. Interior of the car has been stripped bare except for a rollcage. The car has been done up in the full Vertex T&E kit and driven by the super-crazy Nobuteru who used to drive a 4-dr Skyline GTR during the D2 grandprix....

....I think the guy has a deep interest in drifting 4-dr sedans!

Ueno (owner of that Aristo) is the owner of Vertex. He is the D1 driver that competed in the red Soarer, and also an all-motor AE86. Nobuteru Taniguchi (N.oO.neB.etter) is going to be the driver of the car. Up till now he was driving for HKS in the genki s15 and then the new Altezza. Jon, you are thinking of Ken Nomura, or NoMuken in the Blitz 4dr R34

Default rear view

Anyone has done that mod? If so where did you get the mirrors from, or can anyone direct me in the right direction?

Default Drift Aristo

Ueno's rollcage is worth more than my car.
