Default Project update

After working on this car on and off for 2 years from a bare shell, its almost 100% and back on the road.
one the outside I still have to adjust the rubber stoppers to level the hood and install the soarer rear window from the original I totaled.
The engine needs to be tuned and the SupraStick transmission controller will be in soon.

One of the cleanest Soarers Really liking the exhaust tips and, of course, I like all the Soarer advanced electronic goodies, assuming it was originally a Soarer. Have to love the flush spoiler with a camera in it, very high tech, especially for the '90s and even still today.

Like I mentioned in my first post, the rubber stoppers on the hood needs to be adjusted so that the hood gap is even. This is why the bumper looks uneven.

The shark fin is actually my GPS receiver for the carputer.

Thanks everyone.

What brand hood is that? I was looking at the same hood and considering it but wasn't sure how good fitment would be and what not.

The company that was selling it (raceon)also didn't say anything about rain gutters on it.
