You're wellcome

He came to the meeting with temporarily licence plate from 400Km far from Tokyo. Crazy...

No air-conditioner + high temp air from rear radiator.
He said the rear bulkhead(trunk floower panel) blown at 150Km/h...

The climate of Tokyo has became like south Asia, high temp & high humid,I hope he still alive

I LOVE IT!

by **Sifu** » Mon Jul 28, 2008 3:17 pm

Where did he get those front rims? It looks like a single lug conversion?

That is crazy. Definately one heck of a project. As for the fenders I would have tried to keep them more angular as it fits the car better. But regardless a wicked project!

by **hideki** » Mon Jul 28, 2008 4:29 pm

Rims are all same (F&R)
Put disc (with fins) like TTE ST165.

Wouldn't the stock water pump have trouble circulating the water from the engine bay through radiator in the rear of the car, and back to the engine?
