[quote author=kurai shimo link=topic=2893.msg25036#msg25036 date=1267751921]
while the dimples arent something i care about as much as everyone else on here, i like the placement of the p/s reservoir! if you have time and a tig, it would be cool to see a custom reservoir (you could make it larger if it fit the space in that corner)
[/quote]

Changed the shape of that gusset so now the p/s reservoir will go right in there and yes custom one will be cool.

plus closed all the extra holes and some gussets on the frame rails to firewall

Here is some shit I've done today: pre fitted my pop up's , they will always stay up I think it looks sick.... on a hatch :P and got my rear brace with a spot to jack up the car...... since the car will be super low and jack wont slide under my bumper ( my old car was like that I always had a hard time lifting it during tire changing and the kit was not as low as this one )

to be honest i didn't even really care about the car it just looked like every other drift car build thread, and then i saw the color u painted it and now that shit is one of the dopest fucking 240's alive, I'd be interested in seeing what wheels you're going to go with, the 5zigens are just drift spares correct?
