Little update:

I got the passenger seat in, put back my 92-94 tails until I know what I want to do with my 95-96 and changed the oil

Removed the front speakers to convert to 6.5" and still don't know what to do, my options are:

1 - Scrap the Ebay adapter and make my own adapter with MDF so I can re-use the factory enclosure

2 - Scrap the enclosure and just use the ebay adapter

3 - Use ebay adapter and make my own little enclosure.

Changing oil


92-94 Tails installed and speakers removed from door


---------------------

Couldn't resist, wanted to get an idea of how the GT-7's would look on the Soarer so I rolled them beside her

Your soarer has come a long way. Looks good! You must have had this before the ban?

Yeah, I bought this right before the JDM ban.. lucky me ey?

I decided to just finish off whatever I have now in case they decide to do something else about our cars, I really hope that won't be the case because I'd end up parting her out till it's just a shell that remains..

Thanks! I'm sorry that I haven't been able to get the brakes to you and it's been such a long time!! lol

Finals are going on right now, and there just isn't enough time in the day to get everything I need done. I hope I'll get them to you within a month!!

Update:

As much as I love the plush seats for the passenger and my Recaro, I decided to get a set of seats to match the interior..

Was leaning towards the ITR Seats that Hil has now, but that won't be original if we both have them :P Damn you Hil!

Ended up picking up a set of Recaro SR3 seats.. pics later..

Well, got some new seats.. don't know if I should keep them




ARC Bov also came in



I think that's the end of buying for now, no more budget to spend unfortunately.. I'll just work with what I have and slowly install

Received the new pedals I ordered, hope they won't be too much trouble fitting them



Better shot of the new seats


I haven't had time to continue on my tail light project. The other side still needs to be taken apart, it'll be try #2 since I cracked the first set. I decided that if the diffuser doesn't come out, I'll just end up breaking them out and keeping them as is. Stay tuned..




Also went outside to take a picture of the new black e-brake boot that I hate and the current state of my interior...
