Is the cup kit in? Also, I love the tail. That is what I wanna do if I can get my hand on a set.

His car is definitely awesome!! Definitely an upgrade from his previous look. I would have loved to see the BN Sports Blister kit that was originally supposed to go on though

i have mixed feelings about it.

I love the quality of the work (obviously this guy SPENT money).
But i never really liked that vertex wide bodykit. that color scheme of chameleon paint is so palyed out and probably would've been cool 8-9 years ago. the overall stance and wheel fitment is...okay i guess.

honestly i think anyone with deep enough pockets and sponsors can build a car just like this. I've seen cars on this forum that have way more character(JDMuscle, 1JZ/240sx, CamberSC, etc.) and I've never had a problem giving my honest opinion on a car. And i find it hard to believe that EVERYONE on here is really that blown away by this. (waits for "hater" comments to chime in)

Anyway, props to the owner for selecting top shelf parts.

Autoboy's SC looked hard before. Now it's in a league of Elite SC's that have been built right. Now my question to you AutoBoy, is the Cusco cage that you run a straight bolt in affair or does it have to be modded? I purchased one for my buddies RSX and it didn't fit.

Thank you. Yea, but the Cusco cage was a pain in the butt since you have to do a lot of adjustments and cuttings. I think they are all like that.

Im glad that this car was parked on the outside and wasn't blocked by other cars so everyone could see it in all its glory

What kind of rear diffuser is that?
Are you running the v160 now?
Do you still have the BN Sports kit?
What other parts do you still have to put on?

they are flush and fit like any other tails would. he has over fenders and thats the gap you see. modding the lights didnt change how they fit.

The car looks great and props to you for opening up the tails and doing your thing to them. i just have one question why didnt you red out the amber lense in them. still looks great i just wanted to ask.

Sick ride, man.
Zachs tails were all redded out with candy. and then had the blacked outline and reverse lense.

Yep orange was redded out, and the chrome trim was matte finish- I like the gloss black Autoboy used better. I wonder where my ol' lights went?

Again, sick setup man, can't wait to see what else is on the way... MOAR pics

Anyone with deep pockets can build anything. This is nicer than most SC's on the forum.
