    The hardest decision ive ever had to make was on what colour to have :confused:

    I must have changed my mind around 7 or 8 times before i finally settled on Red/Maroon with orange/gold fleck :thumbs:

    Rick was kind enough to keep me updated with some progress pics :worthy:

    Hopefully when its sunny i will get some pics sent of the car outside because ive been told it looks bloody amazing!

    I had about £300 of my budget left which i sent with the money for the car to square away some decent wheels.

    I decided on these, they are Hanbai M2 DT-05R 18x9 et.20 up front and 18x10 et.30 at back, the arches will be flared to match :D

    dt-05r-type-d-18-sub-15.

    And of course i have this sat at home just to add to the pimpness :rolleyes:

    JDMknob_flowers.


    My plans for the car are to drift it for now, then work on the chassis abit more and more power by the means of a GT3037S or something similar.

    Also want to get a decent bucket seat and cage.

    I cant bloody wait, i want to say a BIG thank you to Rick at ghost dancer and all his guys who are working hard on the car :worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

    He's put up with all my emails and decision changes (which happened almost daily!) and always kept me updated, i highly recommend GD to anyone :nod:



    As i get more pics i will keep this page updated, then it will just be the long haul from Japan to Southampton docks....
