    Very nice build man!
    would say theres not much point to massive tubbed front arches, just keep in mind having room in that engin bay.
    You got a spec list done up? what power you sending it dude?

    i am going to be putting a full type x kit with the rear spoiler widened 20cm to suit the size of the car all being made by magic aero as used his stuff before and all very good quality and fitment and the price is very good compared to buying a full oem kit so makes more sense as its a drift car :thumbs:

    just a quick update with lots of pictures as have moved house and have been mental busy. The kit and car are almost finished with the paint shop so will soon be alignment and a few tweaks to the engine and ecu from greg (protuner) and ready to rip. Just a quick note to paul over at Magic Aero the quality of the kit and fittment is absolutley unbelievable. Normally fiberglass can be a pain to paint and fit and get a good finish but the way this thing is turning out its going to look awsome and top job by everybody that has helped :)

    Nice project. What numbers you expect from hx35 turbo? do you have some experience with it? because i think about this turbo to go on my 1jz.. i want about 500hp.. or better go for hx40 with 12cm hausing?

    Awesome build, love it

    EFKA- Smallest housing for a HX40 is 16cm IIRC.
    HX35 with a 12cm should get you up to 600bhp depending on boost. Most 1J people seem to have ~440bhp at low boost n stock internals. Depends how much boost you run really.
