well, thats about it for now. As we can all see this car needs help...lots and lots of help. This car was broken into when the previous owner had it. That is why the spoiler is ripped off and the trunk has a gap where the lock should be. The guy I bought it from did some work to it. He did some suspension work (Tokicko) and a Racing Clutch (I don't know what company). He also put Racing Beat Exhaust Tips on it. If you have any opinions, suggestions or questions please post them. I would love to hear what you people have to say (please try to be positive if you can )

Im thinking about painting the main body Gold and offsetting the gold with Black, or Carbon Fiber. I think that would like really nice, like some of the Top Secret Cars. Like...the black paint would go on the hood and stuff like thatl; you guys know what im talking about

Pretty nice actually, no rust or anything. Dont worry about painting it and stuff just do the basics and get some practice time in. Its not worth painting if your breaking the car in cause you never know if somethings gonna happen and you have to replace a panel.

Junpower- hey wanna save some of the last FCs for the rest of us?

Its kinda ironic when you say he wont have enough power and you have a picture of the drift king who stresses so much that you dont need power to drift or win a race against a bigger car...

Yea, blance over power is a vital key to some drifters. But I was thinking of putting a turbo in later, im going to first do some more suspension work to it and stuff so it can slide easier; then I will add a turbo kit
