I love the car on page 1 but really really wonder why you would go from the sexy stock VR4 bumpers etc to this body kit crap? (money problems?) Just my opinion

I was thinking the same thing, but given her location; I'd say to be different.

Still its a VR4! atleast you can get them there we cant get stuff like that here with out importing or buying it from (correct me of I'm wrong) Cali

Different =/= tasteful

But then again, she's the one who can get a Legnum. Teh sigh...

I really like this bumper. I like the look it gives it, more aggressive, and I just really really like it and have liked that style for a while.

Why would I want to be like everyone else on the road being stock? A lot of people who have seen it in person think it's the most awesome Legnum they've seen :)

Stock bumpers here are very cheap, and I really don't find them "Sexy". You can get a bumper in good condition for US$30, this cost me about US$200. I just sold one from a VR4 we wrecked for NZ$40 (about US$30 I think from exchange rate) with foglights etc included.

I binned that original bumper cause it was damaged so hence wouldn't be worth anything. Stew about that one before you fall asleep at night ;)

I sold my stock 1992 Galant bumper for NZ$1.50 (in the picture below). I'm not even going to translate that to US dollars cause I think you get the idea. Just goes to show.

[keith6110]

Can you find me like 10 bumpers and I'll buy them all?

JK, shipping will rape me. If shipping wasn't more than the bumper, I would love to have.

[Jasmine]

Really, if I were having money problems, I would not be doing this twin TD05 build, Just saying :)

Haha yeah in regards to shipping. I wanted the Halo lights off Ebay, but shipping was going to cost twice what the lights were! :(

[Jasmine]

New wheels...but I don't like them, so on the look out for others:



My car has been accepted into a show n shine happening next weekend. I am honoured as they were only selecting cars up to standard... So I shall get better pics then. Since it's got adjusties in, we were gonna set up then slam it just for the show.

New boot install will be done this weekend.

[keith6110]

Nice! Looking forward to seeing pics.

Should we assume it runs good? I don't remember seeing it with the engine in.

[Jasmine]

It's still got the original motor in, still need to make the custom manifolds for the engine we're working on. We had a donor engine from a crashed VR4 because we wanted this to still be drivable whilst working on the motor :) We just did the timing on the project motor.

ahh okay, makes sense now. I was thinking you took the motor out to re-work it and throw it back in. lol, I should've known better.

[Jasmine]

Hehe I wouldn't have been able to live with so far what's been like three months work without driving my car! We're hoping to get the other engine finished by next year -fingers crossed-. The guy we were going to get to do the manifolds, looks like he may have moved...so we'll see. It's a W.I.P

Your stock VR4 bumpers look 100% better then our stock US spec bumpers and if we could get your bumpers here as cheap as you can get them there well you get what I'm saying anyways nice build

[Jasmine]

Compare your stock US bumpers to our stock bumpers here.

You're wanting something different from that right?

Imagine your situation here and then tell me you wouldn't change your bumper ;)

You can't even compare your sporty stock bumper to our stock bumpers lol

[Jasmine]

Stock for stock, it's all the same from country to country.

I can compare cause they're a dime a dozen here and not desirable. We'd probably think the USDM bumpers were quite cool because they are different :)
