Well as most of you know I recently sold my Lexus is300, I loved that car but it just sat in the garage doing nothing most days, so thought I'd sell up and get something a bit more fun that I could take out to work but at the same time have fun with in the weekends.
After a few weeks of searching I found the car it was pretty cheap as it need a a bit of work doing on it but I don't mind as I love getting my hands dirty lol
She is a 93' import twin turbo rz
She's had a few things done to her but its pretty standard still I've taken a few things off to make it more original but now its time to start making it my own,
She was painted a nice Volvo titanium grey which is nice but not in the best condition but I'm going to be reprinting the car next year anyway so that doesn't bother me too much.
My plans are to change the rear and front bumper modify the sides so there a one off design, either a trd or a drift wing on the back, get some new wheels but knowing my record with wheels they'll probably change a few times lol. I'm going to eventually do a 6 speed conversion but until then I'll do a simple bpu upgrade get it around 400 and then when I get the 6 speed go for around 500bhp and convert it to single turbo make the bay look a bit nicer, but that's down the line
I suppose I should show you properly what she looks like
So this is when I got her [Image: a2ejuzaj.jpg]

Here she Is at home after a 3 hour drive on a roads which was amazing

The first things I did was to rip the dark tints off the front windows
And de tint the rear lights as you couldn't see anything out of them and take off the rear plate surrounds [Image: suvyreje.jpg]

Gave it a good polish got the paint ooober shiny and the headlights were slightly yellow so I have them a good cut and polish an they came up way better [Image: 8azunaha.jpg]

Quick shot of the engine not a fan of the red but it'll do for now
