December 4, 201312 yr comment_673086 Really love your car! Real inspiration for mine, those fendermirrors really fit the car! Report
December 21, 201312 yr comment_674099 Dude! This thing is looking sick! I've seen photos of your car around the place but for some reason I never found the thread... Until now! And I'm so glad I did! Everything about it just works so well! The fender mirrors tying into the chrome of your SSRs, the boot spoiler, stopping the body lines drooping too far and bringing back a more aggressive look, not to mention the fitment of those wheels are absolutely heavenly! And then there's the nardi... Holy shit! Ahahahaha Simply put, for a daily, this is the best ke30 I've ever seen if not the best daily driven car I've ever seen! Keep at it man! I'm keen for the video! Haha Report
December 22, 201312 yr Author comment_674127 Marcus, thank you so much for your kind words it's very humbling mate. Video has been delayed due to other commitments however should hopefully be done in January. Thought I may as well post the video someone has edited of Classic Japan up. Whoever filmed it did a few shots of my rolla which was cool. Thanks again. Edited December 23, 201312 yr by shiryo Report
December 26, 201312 yr comment_674306 I've just read this thread from start to finish and am in awe of the way your car presents itself. You have done an awesome job, not only with the car but with the build thread. I do however resent you saying its your "slap together" daily :P . I wish I could get this sort of quality on my 55 coupe and that's my one and only project :( Will be watching this thread and I am pumped to see what 2014 brings for this gorgeous example of a ke30. Well done so far. Bos Report
January 7, 201412 yr Author comment_675052 Thanks for the kind words Simon! As for my "slap together" statement, I merely say it because it hasn't undergone my OCD treatment I give my other car haha. Hopefully get some more photos this weekend if weather is decent too. It was an honour to be nominated and put in the running for car of the year, so thanks to everyone who voted my way, means a great deal! Edited January 8, 201412 yr by shiryo Report
January 10, 201412 yr Author comment_675184 I've listed the car up in the appropriate section on the forum, but for those who might miss it there, I'll mention it in here too. Car is now up for sale unfortunately, I need to clear some debts and having 2 cars isn't helping me financially in any way. Now listed on carsales too: http://www.carsales....0/?Cr=3&sdmvc=1 If mods don't approve of this let me know, thanks. Edited January 10, 201412 yr by shiryo Report
January 10, 201412 yr comment_675185 Just don't bump this thread for the sole purpose of putting it to the top purely for sales exposure. All I can say is you will regret selling this. Report
February 3, 201412 yr Author comment_676786 Probably right Reed haha. Car is still in my possession, my mate still hasn't finished editing the video as he's been crazy busy. I'm impatient, so for a laugh I did this last night to keep me entertained until the full thing is complete. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUL_t3xfOr8&feature=youtu.be Edited February 3, 201412 yr by shiryo Report
February 9, 201412 yr comment_677215 nice work mate it would be a shame for you to sell it such a good example of what a ke30 should look like! Report
February 11, 201412 yr Author comment_677298 Thanks Charles, might be going to a new home this weekend! :( I only hope it goes to someone who'll love it as much as I have. Report
February 17, 201412 yr Author comment_677749 Not at all? My mate who was meant to be doing it for me seems to have no interest in completing it now. Looks like I'll be doing it instead, except I suck at it. Report
