Tell us more about this T2 and post some pics. If its cool you probably will have a lot less trouble finding parts.

Will take another couple when i get back to the shop on the 27th DEC
I have done a lot of engine work
Forged Pistons CP
Forged Rods Eagle
Metal Head Gasket
Head Studs ARP
Race Bearings ACL

Plan to see how stock turbo goes on that not sure if it will throw the blades if so I have a couple of N1 GTR turbos will use one of those.

I am in Brisbane QLD

THe Spoiler is only on there to stir the pot. Every body said there was no way of putting a Supra Wing on a City so I modified to fit it will grow on you the more you look at it.

I like the side-skirts, any chance of a close up of those? The car looks a bit like a City Turbo mounted to an intercooler, shure that's big enough.

My CT2 waits on car stands for some bits.

I have to go in and check the work shop after the storm last night so i took a couple of pic for you guy's.

NOW don't freak out at the front bar.
I know it's wild but it's the looks that we are chasing.

I have modified a CRX Bodykit to fit the city

Rear bar is also CRX Cyber with the large mesh insert.

ProT i'm not sure with suspension yet want to get so cusco P-Zero's but cant find any 2nd hand one's, maybe some Tein.

It's a bit dirty remember we have a water shorted on at the moment will wash it later when ready for the road test.

Wow, that is seriously effing cool. I love it.

I have a spare dizzy at home that you can have cheap If you havn't found one by the time I go home next.

I love how you kept it in the family with the Mugen MR5(?) wheels.

That thing has a serisouly big mouth!

You need some honda badging on the front, maybe stencil spray a big red "H" on the intercooleror something?

Thanks

WOW! IM speechlesS!

That is a beautiful T2! Loving the body kit, that looks to resemble a cyber kit, as I assumed at first, and then you confirmed right! I like the front, its something different, and its not gh3y!

Great to see you are keeping it old school with the set of 15x6.5" Black Mugen MR5 wheels, do they have all centre caps and any bolt hole covers? They are a great wheel and I am very fond of Genuine Mugen gear also, although I dont own any at the moment. I would recommend that you recondition those wheels, and get em looking new, and they will be worth a lot more and give you that feeling of owning some rare wheels especially the MR5's in black! But not only that, they will be in mint condition!

Good luck with the rest of your project! Will be happy to hear about how it goes when its near completion!
:wink:

very nice selection of vehicles also. I congratulate you for owning a NSX, one of my dream cars to list! Hope you still own that rare machine!

I don't really like the whole look of the car ( i like more of a clean look), but i can appreciate how much work has gone into it, so well done.

I might steal your idea for the side vents, very impressed, they look awesome.

Colour is spot on too, should really stand out when its finished 8)

I agree with bulldog, with those mugen wheels all spiffy with a new coat of paint they would look the bussiness.

You have had some pretty cool projects, the NSX is my ultimate dream car, I'm trying to work out how I can finance one in the next few years :p
