I'm SO pissed I'm gonna miss ECB because of work. Really wanted to see the car in person

blueshark123 · 06-20-2011, 12:28 AM

car looks great but the pics dont really make it look sharp idk car seems dusty to me.He might be using to much light or something or like if the picture was Photoshop to much.

edit: it might be my laptop oops

EjMalernee · 06-20-2011, 03:45 AM

This is suck an epic build. Great job man.

95KA-Turbo · 06-20-2011, 08:14 AM

Thanks for the complements everyone!

Yes Nathan, ECB photoshoot!!!

BlueShark...the car actually was dusty, haha. A few mack trucks drove by on a dirt road and there was huge amounts of dust that got blown onto the car right after we set the lights up for the first shot.

OBEEWON · 06-20-2011, 08:37 AM

This car brings tears to my eyes.

HOLY CRAP ITS MY FAVORITE KOUKI!

I can say that with confidence.

I just shivered. Real talk. The thought of this doing the bank at E-town has motivated me.

wacko2 · 06-20-2011, 04:02 PM

JohnnyDrfiter22 · 06-20-2011, 04:09 PM

600SX · 06-21-2011, 04:08 PM

Car looks great. I always like to see more LS 240's.

totally
bonkers

jorge1190 · 06-21-2011, 08:35 PM

The whole car looks awesome. Im trying to convince Patrick to tub the front of my car right now lol.

RurouniMidnight · 06-21-2011, 08:38 PM

Big fan of the color, nice job man.

95KA-Turbo · 06-21-2011, 08:47 PM

Thanks guys!

Here are a few more pictures I took the other day.

*revat619* · 06-21-2011, 10:10 PM

any plans to run turn signals?

95KA-Turbo · 06-21-2011, 10:12 PM

Not at the moment. I cut the mounting brackets off and filled the angled part with fiberglass. I still have them though, so if I change my mind I can reglass them back on.

Style · 06-21-2011, 10:32 PM

u running same bodykit all the way around?
back lip and sideskirt look funny to me...

harangatang · 06-21-2011, 10:43 PM

^^

Same here koop. What rear valances are you running?

edit: belay that.... looks like a gp sports bumper to match the gp sports front...?

Those fenders get me all hot inside. I'm jealous lol!! I need to find someone to help me weld my shit back together down here so I can do the same thing.

95KA-Turbo · 06-21-2011, 11:03 PM

The aero is URAS rear valances on JDM rear bumper, 'friends style' sides that I had to shorten so they'd line up with the front bumper, and GP Sports front bumper.

These side skirts line up, but the Bomex ones would be a better shape. So they'll eventually be replaced with those. I just have to hope the Bomex ones aren't too thick because I don't want to have to shorten another set of side skirts!

harangatang · 06-21-2011, 11:44 PM

That front bumper is seriously the best looking aftermarket front ever. So close to jdm, but slightly larger.
I'm gonna drive up there and steal it lol!
The valances look pretty crazy. But they line up really well with the sides.

I'm hoping my friends style front with vtx sides and rear look decent after paint... the front is just so huge

95KA-Turbo · 06-21-2011, 11:55 PM

I am 95% sure there is another one of my bumpers on Up Garage right now, but the picture is awful and I kind of don't want to know since you can't ship it without spending gobs of money. It would be nice to have a drift spare, LOL.

Put this together with a few shots I took with my point and shoot camera.

turbo2nr · 06-22-2011, 07:51 AM

amazing knoop!

think you'll end up ducting the front bumper or making a skid plate ? front bumper looks very open imo, but car is amazing non the less

95KA-Turbo · 06-22-2011, 08:00 AM

I have a skid plate, I actually took some shots of it because people were asking for them. Its 1/8th inch stainless steal and has run into a few things already, haha.

Yes, I do want/need to make some ducting as well!

CamryOnBronze · 06-22-2011, 08:41 AM

I really wish I could make it out to ECB to see some of the cars out there... this just keeps getting better!

T.O.D. · 06-22-2011, 04:14 PM

Killer build..love the attention to suspension. The green metallic is so greasy! thumbs

silviaguy240 · 06-22-2011, 06:35 PM

i think you just need to jam a FMIC in there for aesthetics. it looks empty....or just do a small twin setup for next season.

Ratpack_Chad · 06-22-2011, 07:04 PM

I really dont think it looks empty at all. The car is a dark color and everything behind the bumper is black. It not like shit is sticking out like a sore thumb or anything.

HS13KLS · 06-22-2011, 07:56 PM

That car is disgusting.

DISGUSTINGLY AWESOME. hahah

The paint turned out really really well, I like the detail!
and your roll looks.. perfect. good work.

IIIXziuR · 06-22-2011, 08:02 PM

Knoop, are you trailering the car up to NJ?

joel.e.krueger · 06-22-2011, 08:03 PM

So what's next duder? What plans for the car?
