What the F is this. Kill it with fire!
Lmao it's Veilside's widebody kit. Although I'm not a big showcar guy anymore (I liked their drag racing days a bit more) the amount of time and effort put into it is astonishing!

Thanks man! I'll be visiting J's and Fujita Engineering in a couple days so hopefully I'll have some more pics to share. Not to mention everything I tool with my camera 😂.

I'll do you one better: https://cardrugs.com/products/broadway-cardrugs-great-wave-mirror?_pos=1&_sid=9aac58c17&_ss=r

I originally got the mirror with the gundam overlay from carDrugs but unfortunately it doesn't look like they have it anymore. I bet if you bought a 300mm Broadway mirror and got a gundam dyecut to put on it it would be similar though!

Little update:

I'm staying in Hakone for a couple days and happened to come across another A90 supra. The owner was the nicest little old man. I told him I liked it and showed him mine and his face lit up and westarted talking a bit in broken Japanese on my end and broken English on his hahaha. What a great little experience, I wish him well and plenty of miles 🙂✌

Supra has to be one of the most driver friendly cars I've been in

Alright, now that I've been back and settled for a bit, I cobbled together a quick montage of the drive in the R34 GTR! Enjoy!

They have a whole list of stuff they've re-done and such on the car's listing page! But oh man I'd imagine it's had a couple engines in its lifetime 😅. You can find it here: https://www.omoren.com/ at the Noda Head office.
