Project Z Week 5 : Chosen Garage and Rust/Chassis Repair Specialists

[ddv_nk12]

Kevin, stick to its original shape. it is already a beauty. no need for extras which i think will only make the car less authentic. I am also driving an old car but not as old as this. I rebuilt it a nd maintained its original looks. some parts like rims, seats n trims have been changed due to its age and no replacements. but thats it. furthermore, my car is not even close to this car. this car is by far more beautiful. just try not too take the looks away. not even trying to make it a ferrari look alike. just my view. decision is yours.

btw, that's a killer wheel. just in case if u need my opinion, hahaha, maybe not. good choice though. cant wait for the end result. any estimation how long will this project take?

Just wonder, how much the retail price of that rims in M'sia? I mean in size of 17 inch...

 

[Kevin Lee]

Cool rims. Hopefully they agree to your request! Best of luck!

But since we're talking black rims with yellow striping, how about the rest of the car color theme for interior and exterior? Retrim etc?

actually i took that pic because it was large enough and clear, hahah. theres many colors to the pinstriping, just need to choose one to go with the theme well, ahhaha

i think exotic mods do sell the rims, u gotta call up shedden and ask for him. ive been contacted by the asia pacific team, hopefully some good news!

on the side note, forged racing radiators have been enthusiastic on our build and willing to sponsor a radiator. ive asked khoyos about the right one, he did point out the r33 rb25 would be the best choice. lets hope for some great action in the car, german, american stuff in a japanese car, great!

Talking about widebody, huge rims, gullwing doors, spacers...... after this ice, airbrush, gt wing, when theres still no engine .

and i thought this was supposed to be a supercar killer.

 

[Kevin Lee]

the engine will come, still have to negotiate, but hey, the body's the important bit in the car, have to get it puspakom certified for the name changing process, engine can come later, seriously

 

[Veloc]

Haha... Patience... Supercar killer I believe that includes the looks too. So it is certainly important!

Widebody = Finding wheels that fit.

If you're going widebody Kev, PLEASE get proper wheels first

 

[adamckc]

there are reasons why those guys make it to the last bit for the originality, i think it look best original, , already fierce enough..

 

[Kevin Lee]

well sadly the condition of the car and the rarity scale in the world does not make this a candidate for full original restoration, i did see a better car for 28k back then, with everything original, so with the cost and everything involved, putting this back to original is no go

widebody, NO


Over fender, YES!



I think most voters are voting for widebody since there's no option for overfender..
