Thanks for reading!

**** YEA THIS THING IS SICK! would love to see pics of the front Tein coilovers and how there bolted up. The rear guards look so good

Thanks man, took alot of work, and the LCA's had to be extended to 430mm from balljoint to mounting hole. ive got some dodgy ones in there, but it will be going to a fabricator soon to get the final ones made up.

wow this is the greatest 200b i have ever seen, props for really doing something different. Love it
is this going to be a track only car?

Nice one. I'm loving that rear wing. It certainly won't look out of place on a drift track!

thanks heaps guys, it will see a little bit of street/hills time but it will be mostly for track purposes. I'm currently looking at getting everything done properly, so when i want to look at competition drifting, i wont have to do much to get it cleared.

more progress on this also, Got a new inlet plenum, but now the throttle body is hitting on the brake master cylinder. so ill have to get the plenum modified so it will clear. Looking at going for the JDM style master cylinder from datsport sometime. Have also spent some more time on the front gaurd, so it will match the rears.

will get some pics up soon of said progress.

Did you ever get any further with this? I'm keen to see some more pictures and progress.
