Rextreme Ver.I Replica Progress

Currently working on a replica. It will be close but not exact. Wheels are hard to match, but I think I will finish it with a gt wing also.

Where is it now?

Last known location. Ipswich.

Spec remained unchanged except for C-West Rear bar added and blended. Prepped for paint. Re-Sold.

Final

maybe the last shot of my car...

parked up in the garage with old parts ready For Sale.

Last days

These are some of the last pics of the FD in my ownership.


It was really looking good with the rear spacers and I was enjoying it until the end.

Lessons learned... NONE

Money Spent... TOOOO MUCH!

Advice.... keep it standard!

Photoshoot

This is the car looking it's best! Spacers are on. The wheels are filling the guards nicely, It is tuned with bags of tyre burning power.

I was driving hard a lot. And still using the car daily. I replaced the clutch and installed the Header pipe and got a new Catalyser.

Polished up, the car looked awesome.

But it was getting time to sell. The cost of ownership in Australia is very high. Insurance is required and is very expensive.

The car was not efficient on fuel and with the daily nature of my driving, I needed something else.
Hmmm. What to do?

Merry Xmas 2004

 OMG!

This was a long time ago, but I found some pics.

The roach... Low and ready to squash!

Photochop

After returning to OZ. The tuning scene is a lot about 19" wheels. I chopped these on to see what they weould look like. OMG! Amazing... Now I had to have some...
But which ones. ADVAN RG II create a mad look , Enkei RP-F1 look almost elegant and the TE-37 are just race inspired.

I did actually choose 19" Enkei RP-F1 with 9 and 10 inch combo in +20 Offset
