WideSam Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 Welcome to the club! Looks like that’ll be a great car once it’s done.
JayS88 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Posted February 3, 2019 Cheers, yeah i hope so, the landrover doesnt quite cut it the way a subaru does 1

JayS88 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 absolutely agree, its the lwb twin turbo too, but auto at the moment
ROSSCOSM Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Aw mate thats nice has it got the t bar roof?
JayS88 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 certainly has, jap spec with the seatbelts on the door aswell
ROSSCOSM Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Aww mate im a little jealous lol possibly the best looking car to come out of japan imo 1
JayS88 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 i totally agree, ive wanted 1 for so long its unreal, tho its nothing to be jelous of, its not exactly roadworthy ...yet 😂
ROSSCOSM Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Im more happy to see its not sitting in a scrap yard top man for saving it
JayS88 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 oh yes couldnt let it go scrap, its not badly rusted, mainly rear arches, its the wiring more, and its sat for so long, it used to belong to a friend and some kids tried to steal it, when thry hotwired it they blew the main ignition fuse, so my friend just left it sitting. offered it to me for a good priced and i bought it without question and before i was ready to do anything with it.
ROSSCOSM Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Awesome mate best of luck with it hope to see an update in the future when you get it back to its former glory will be a fairlady again 😁
