Its going to be good Rain....Although we can`t say too much about the project now, we have a few finished proto-type parts that will be going on the car, and it will be exhibited at the Osaka Auto messe in Feb.

we will have a full photo album available for Rain on our home page, which I am sure he will be wanting to share with you.

Gonna be fantastic, i may have more good news later on (after christmas holidays) but ill let you know.

Let the hunt begin

Rain · 1st December 2007, 10:24 AM

Woo

So, hunt is over, and we have a base car to start ripping things out of

Interior is super clean except for the odd bit of...interesting design aspects.

Mileage on the chassis wasnt super low but not too bad either.

A little icing on the cake. Logo looks familiar

More pics tomorrow as it was late in Japan so couldn't really see the car.

nice cup holder

its going in the garbage, same with those pedals and probably that steering wheel.

I spared no expense on my interior setup, and particularly with steering wheels, I was prepared to pay whatever it cost for the best possible one.

Ironically, it ended up being the Momo Tuner (as pictued above, but in all black with red stitching). Out of a wall of steering wheels, it's the only one that felt right to me. YMMV, but for my hands, it's the most solid, comfortable wheel I could find. And it's bottom of the line. Fancy that!

Rain · 2nd December 2007, 02:32 AM

I have another in mind for this car

will be also black leather with red stitching,

This is what i will upgrade to.

Spectacular, is the closest word i could find to describe this wheel

Toby,

Pez301 · 2nd December 2007, 06:14 AM

not so much that, as i dont drink drinks in my GT-Rs i reserve the messy normal life for the WRX, covered in husky fur and road salt currently from these wonderful Canadian winters

More pics of the donor car, Chassis and interior is really nice!

This is the last time it will look like that. Fresh start for this car.

Engine bay looks pretty nice and clean, time to start rebuilding.

Engine it self was in no shape for use, new bits on the way

Id like to give a big shout out to Rick and Sugino-san at Endless-R for all their help and guidance this car is going to be pretty interesting to see it develop and grow.

Thanks everyone for taking the time to look.

Good luck

Rain · 3rd December 2007, 01:44 AM

Pez301 · 3rd December 2007, 10:12 PM
