Thanks for the words homie. As much as I tried to finish this car completely bogless, there needed to be a tiny amount (less than the side of a palm) on the driver side rear 1/4 as the PDR couldn't ever be 100% back to factory in that position, due to the lines of the body. Also, the rear bumper has filler, it was in a terrible state when I received it, and I can't PDR fibreglass lol

So glad to hear that man. Ive found most of my stuff on Yahoo Japan auctions, I search them probably around twice a day with various keywords in Japanese. But some stuff (Ganadors, ski racks) I had to persuade friends to sell them to me!

I think I've locked in the paintwork within 2 weeks finally. Once painted, the car will be put back on stands and then underbody restore will commence. All suspension will be disassembled, sand blasted, powder coated and be installed with Nismo bushes in them.

I'm currently at a crossroads with this car. I'm in a state currently where I can afford to buy an R34 GT-R (my all time dream car) but only have 2 garage spaces. I'm looking into putting a 4 point hoist in so I can put the VZ-R up in the air and the S14 underneath, with the GT-R in the next spot over. If I can't get a hoist in... This 14 may be for sale... Who knows, one step at a time.

Also have an S13 drift car which I might made a build thread for soon.. not sure what I'm doing with it.
