i love the fabrication progress of something new and different. It looks like you are the "go-to" guy out there aren't you? lol

thanks guys, to get things made down here is pritty expensive. and unlike you guys in the US, we cant buy alot of things just by walking into the closes hardware shop with materials and such, thus no choice but to fabricate it.
this project is almost finished, soo looking into either a 1989 ZR4 so i can transplant some mods from my GSR to it or... an 8G VR4 Galant/Legnum, funny thing here is, all the newer import Galants are all VR4 but mostly auto and the rare manual.. if plans go ahead with the bank (missus), stay tuned for all the custom mods to an 8G Galant/Legnum. should be fun...
oh and 9G bro, your sig is freakin distracting!
a few extra things..
and my bonnet was damaged by rocks when i was following a truck so its currently in primer again..
i'll keep you all posted... i wish i was in the US to join you guys for a cruise!
Man that car is sex... love the fogs
Nice work
Very nice looking eterna :D
Most of the ones we have over here are scrap metal now, all except for the ZR-4's really
1994 Galant VR-4 GOKUH ( 230kw atw )
2000 Legnum VR-4 ( Daily, 155.5kw atw )
1997 Legnum VR-4 - Yes Another one
1995 FTO - V6 Mivec 200hp
i wish we had more ZR4's down here, we seem to have shiz loads of VR4's US/Aus/Jap spec's but only... 3 ZR4's that i know of..
currently bidding on a supercharger from a Merc Eaton M45, if all goes to plan that will be bolted onto my engine instead if the EVO turbo.... better on the fuel econ..
and many thanks for the kind words guys.....
wow thats a nice project u got going thier, i never seen one of those cars ever
00 Galant ES Turbo/5-Speed
13 GTR
