Default Sunkist/Orange Crush J-Spec Car!

Not sure if I've ever seen this one on here before...some very creative things done with the body. My fav is the rear bumper and exhaust!!! Least fav: the color and the drop.

Notice the switches like Dr. Dre and Snoops' 64 Impala! LOL Ghetto!!!

All that work and you can see the red wires coming off the back of the switches. Nice car
a bit loud for my taste

Wow, talk about being modded.....Agree with Hoovey, all that work and you do a cheap wire job on the toggles. Would like to know what engine mods are done. I couldn't drive it, the steering is on the wrong side!!HA!

Isn't that a Soarer badge on the steering wheel, but the rear deck has SC430 ID? Who knows what the front grille badge is from, unless it's the company that did the mods.

And I wonder who made those tires?

I really don't mind the color; it just makes me thirsty for an Orange Crush!

it appears to be "Forte". They make custom rims, but I didn't know they made grills (and body kits???) too. I did a search but first couple of pages didn't come up with a forte specific site.

If this car didn't have hydraulics and was just tastefully lowered, I really like it!!! If you were a college FB fan of the Texas Longhorns or OSU Cowboys or the Tenn Volunteers you would kill for a car like this! LOL

DUB edition.
If you are into DUB style, this is the car. lol

It was indeed built by Forte in Japan a while ago.
I didn't post that kit because I am still not sure if they are going to produce the kit. (more likely not, I think)
What they did was to take the Tom's kit and modfied the hell out of it. 22" wheels.

Here are some of the WIP pics.

DUB is not my thing but I respect the work put into this SC. I really like the kit (minus the grill).
