Is that gradient at the lower side of the car genuine?

Yep, it appears to be!

It's got a few factory looking bits that are interesting.

In the centre console thing it's got a factory fitted looking pioneer fader for speakers front or back.

Funny decals on the side of the car as mentioned, fog light switch (although doesnt have fog lights anymore) and factory aircon (which doesnt work anymore)

Interior is really nice condition, it's got TA63 front seats fitted though is only non standard thing.

Really awesome seats, will put some in my other car if I can find another set!

Or might just get factory seats to match the fabric in this, put TA63 seats in the other car.

I also got some factory power steering carina arms for my other car, they're so much shorter! Might make the steering a bit too heavy, haha.

Same as the gradiant decals on the side of my wagon Smile Mine has (non functioning) A/C too. The fader switch sounds sweet Cool

Can't wait to see it in person!

I am going to another track day to go to on April 13th, should be fun!

Prior to then I am ftting some of the shorter PS steering arms, from an ST141 Corona. Have got one side done.

Hopefully doesnt make the steering too heavy Smile

Was such an awesome day, Both me and my Dad were driving, so we smashed through about 60-70 laps I'd say...

Put the car back on the trailer when running low on gas at the end of the day, rather than because it was broken haha.

Few changes lately...

Nissan 4 pots fitted,
Wilwood bias valve fitted,
softer rear springs fitted (needs to be a tad lower in the rear)
softer front springs fitted
better exhaust hangers fitted

and 195/50/15 all round for the moment, but will go 205/50/15 or 225/45/15 if I can get them, for semislicks when I do. I've got the room under the gaurds for them anyway.

Aahh sorry... Was a bit late at night when I posted that.

Was meaning either 215/45 or 215/40...

There's an R888 in one of those sizes, bit more tire width with about the same sidewall as a 205/50/15.

Got 195/50/15 street tires at the moment, which is fine but on the track I wouldnt mind a bit more rubber on the road... None of this stretch business!

Might get some seperate wheels for semis at some stage, but not too much of a hassle to swap them over for a trackday.
