    Building this as a daily user and a bit of fun.
    Not going to be in a hurry, just to fill in time between jobs that make the wages.
    Been thinking about doing this for ages, realy thought a 33 with the back cut off would look shite but, well you judge....

    Yeah i was amazed how much better it looked once the roof came off, budget build so front end will be pretty ordinary until anything interesting comes in to break up, I have a GTR33 bumper, might repair it and put it on for now.

    I don't like R33s in general... but this could be cool if it's anything like your last project.
