That MX5 is looking damn hot, colour reminds me of a certain truck though, maybe just me ;)

Update on myself, I made a very difficult trade today.

Okay not really. I traded my most recent hard work for a new project. It will be hard work, but I've been given a lot more to start with.

I was on my way in the AW10 to do a shoot this morning and some guy flagged me down and asked me to pull over to talk to me for a minute. We talked about the car for a little bit, told him about all the work I put into it and specs. I told him about my Skyline and then let him know I had to go do a shoot, but that he could give me a call in an hour or two. He called and asked if I had thought about parting with it. I said I hadn't thought about it, that I only had it for a small amount of time, but then he told me that he'd trade me for an R33 GT-R. Well that I had to see, so I drove over to his place and saw this thing. (Pics are at the shop)





So it is far from done, but the engine is built. Only problem is that it's not running. Everything I needed to assemble the car was in his garage, he had just taken it apart for engine removing purposes. This was a sacrifice I was willing to make. He says it should make 600 AWD HP with the engine running low boost, no problem. He also said if it didn't that he would give me $1000 just for my trouble. What more was there to say? We shook on it and we exchanged cars and titles. So I got it back and pushed it inside after towing it to the shop.

Cleaned up the exhaust manifold and turbos, just to throw them on for now.



Wanted to fit the front end (minus the hood, which I have)



and rear bumper



So this is the newest project. The R32 doesn't have big plans. This will have bigger plans. R32 will see streetable mods, nice look, more friendly approach. (400-450HP maybe?)

Plans for this are 700HP, no BS. This will take the place of the MR2 and be a step higher. Much more rare and much more to my liking.

Do it for the ratchets
