Default from stock to this.....still a lot to do. (pics)

I got this car for a steal last week of may this year. Car was bone stock with a few cosmetic damages but car ran perfectly. Even AC blew arctic cold. Paid $1600(CAD) not USD. Mileage was 360150kms when I got it. Still runs like a dream now at 370550kms. Still have a long way to go before its even done but for now mostly cosmetic mods to the car. Next year is when I hopefully go twin turbo and 5 speed. Here's pics of the car as she looks right now. Also still have to put on spacers, 20mm for the fronts and 25mm in the rear and also getting a higher mount for the wing done by a machine shop. Comments and questions are welcome even bad ones. Just try to be gentle with the bashing.















more pics on my flickr page.

Sorry but that wing is just... wrong, especially the endcaps.

Otherwise, your car looks ok.

i agree with the endcaps. i tried to take them off but i think the screw is stripped inside. the wing is functional though since i will be tracking this car and eventually drifting it once i get the 5 speed swap.

already on that. i have a buddy that has a hookup with raceonusa so gonna order that soon. although probably wont put it on til next year. only a few more months til its fall then winter. it gets pretty bad here in toronto in terms of snow. dont want to ruin the kit when i drive it in the winter time.

it still doesnt sit flush. currently running 17x9 + 19 all around. i know its stupid but im gonna find a way to get it driving without rubbing.

endcaps on that wing are horrendous. And you should tint your windows if youre going with that whole blacked out night rider batman theme or whatever. Just doesnt look complete lookin like a fishbowl

i really cant. i plan on dragging the car while its still auto and also tracking it. eventually when i get my 5 speed swap im going to use this a my drifter instead of the gtr. im also going for a gt race car look so the wing fits in the whole scheme of things. although i know most people here dont like it.

heres the list of parts that im getting and going on the car within the next year.

cf hood(already have this on my 92 just need to refinish)
cf trunk
cf sideview mirrors
full raceonusa bodykit

There is no reason why your wing needs to be taller than your antenna.
