Abos Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Really love your car! Real inspiration for mine, those fendermirrors really fit the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerrySchmiddy Posted December 21, 2013 Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiryo Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) 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, 2013 by shiryo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bos55 Posted December 26, 2013 Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiryo Posted January 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) 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!

shiryo Posted January 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) 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.

B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiryo Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) 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, 2014 by shiryo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyricallyters Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 nice work mate it would be a shame for you to sell it such a good example of what a ke30 should look like! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiryo Posted February 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luk3333 Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 How's the vid going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiryo Posted February 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
