Michi Takatori's/Bridges Racing Facelift

It was a long Friday/Saturday as the team gave the car a new face lift/give the car a once over before sending it to HotLanta.

Still waiting on some Work XSA03 so pardon the boo boo sunken wheels.

Thanks to Origin for sending out the new kit!

Kinda going back to the basics. R34 -> S13

See you guys at Atlanta.

Before:



After:

Nice work! Though I must admit I'm going to miss the R-34.

i know this thread is kind of old.

super autobacs owns the cefiro and the r34.

this car is owned by bridges racing in california.

super autobacs didnt have the money to pay for takatori to drive this year.

therefore..no cefiro...and no r34.

the cefiro isnt even running

the r34 is prolly a show car now lol

I would rather this car just have a sponsor roll call on the back window and then a small decal on each side that just says "Michi Takatori is driving this."

looked better bare.

I don't think the JDM cars were ever owned by Super Autobacs as in "Autobacs Seven". I think it's by Carlife...like a company that owns the Autobacs franchise in Kyoto. That's one of the reasons as to why the car was never really welcomed with open arms by either of the Super Autobacs stores in California (Stanton and Covina).

BTW, I spy a hooker in one of the photos... ;-) I <3 Bridges Racing!

LOL...True Zilvia flames people for running Sportmax wheels, but look at the top of the Group buys always the guy selling Sportmaxs.

I am very glad Takatori is running this year. He is a great driver and a good guy. Bummer he had to build another car, but as stated the R34 was not accepted well over here.
