Quality. Styled, rather than just get the latest kit, and spray it bling colour. Maybe needs slight spacers on the rear?

It\'s this car that spurned me into trying to make mine as individual as possible.

Fantastic to see it nearly completed finally! (Well, at least in the looks depertment :) )

RE Amemiya AD-9.

Quite a lot of people here have them now as it seems a big batch came over.  Just phone up a few of the tuners.  I know RE Worx has had them before, dont know about other place.

Be sitting down when you hear the price :rollin

Thanks for all the comments guys.

I am passionate about the FD.

This car has been a pain and a joy. For almost 2 years. Its nearly there and In the end It is definately NOT how I invisaged it in my mind when I started.

But things come along when you dont expect it.

The car was one I didnt select. Was bought for me in a strange situation.
The body kit was purchased at RE-A stand at Fuji Speedway during 7\'s day 2003 for 30% off. It sat in my room for 6 months!
The Wheels were impulse as being extremely different. I wanted Enkei RP01s. Bad timing, and too much choice meant I missed the 4" FEED titanium zorst and ARC air box for cheap as. and many other parts that I regret not buying

The import process was a bastard and parts missing was worse.

The colour was a surprise when it went on, a lot darker than expected, but in hindsight was a good choice. matching the wheels. I dont want to change them any more.

As you all know, an FD is a special thing and I think its growing on me too much. Im driving it 50Klms to work every day now.

I\'ll have to sell it before I do anything else.
I am already installing HKS Super flow filters and I have the Dump pipe ready. Wheel spacers are here and ready to go soon.

I wont be going back to Auto salon this year. I think I\'ll be in OZ for a while. Another year at least.

Need to save some cash for the next FD.
I wonder what it will be like when it\'s finished.

And the same again in airfreight, duty and tax for a legit importer.
