- Suspension & Wheels:
- 15\" Charcoal Lenso VE rims (Volk TE37 Replicas) with Yokohama AE59s tyres
- Peddars lowering springs on stock shocks. (I think its 1\" front & 1.5 rear but im goin lower soon with new springs & shocks)

Interior:

That rear panel was introduced around '93 according to the ones I've seen.

Man, that NA looks tough. A punchy combo of dishes, rollbar and rearflaps. And the hardtop doesn't hurt either! :D

Looks super tough..but I'm not really a fan of that wheel design or the bonnet. I do like the matt roof though. It's like... "my roof isn't mismatched because I can't afford to respray.. it's because it looks f**king tough".

Looking forward to updates here too :mrgreen:
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
