| Nah, my car is too ripped apart to be worth anything, especially when I have the IS300 LOL.

me too but its getting badly rusted, and the only high temperature red i could get was almost orange and looks shit. can't afford to have it properly re-sprayed. keeping the firewall red and the tops of struts, the rest will be covered by engine bits!  | |

| Did you say you had to change one of you're linkages on you're build cause it was too long? which one was it? may as well do that now before the engine goes in  | |
