Sweet 240 down at Tophat (With RB26)

Not a drift car but man is this car clean and sweet. LOTS of money tied in this one. Gonna be sweet when its done. The rear window is a hatch made of lexan that has all the defrost lines airbrushed on it. Crazytown. RB26 swap.

wait, what year 240 is that. Do you mean they made an old HB look like a s14.5 by changing the taillights and extending the hatch down between the taillights or did they do some radical mod on the back of a newer 240. It's hard to tell from the angles the pictures are taken from. It looks like a newer 240 to me, but i'm having trouble picturing the way the hatch would open. could you post some more pics??

- peace

The way it works is the window was removed and made into a hatch. So the window itself is all that raises on hydraulics. The window is Lexan. The trunk still works like it should and the window itself also raises. The wheels are not on the car as of yet since it is still in the hauling around getting built stages. The car has zero gauges. Everything is on a touch screen in the center. The car was made into a right hand drive as well. It's insane the amount of stuff that is in the car such as electronics and what not. I'll get some more photo's next time it's at the shop. Insane.
