Got the car back this weekend
Very awesome driving it around to get to that 1000km, however i am very tempted to just give it a little...but safety 1st and slow.

Looks great man, not sure how far you are into your build but a few places here in jhb that you could use for future resources is Japan auto which has tons of motors for our line of fun toys, turbo toys as well but are sometime a tad more pricey, import wise you could use import parts which is also expensive but some of their stuff is relatively priced. as for other parts im still finding sources myself.
Thanks for the help and i will give it a look. The build does bring joy and also it can hurt your pocket real quick,but i guess its always worth it and what brings joy.
Decided to change the rubber and i think it looks nice! give a really better view and even greater drive. Just can swing it like i use to when they hot.

I know these Post are very very late but i just wanted to save it on here. In Dec 2016 i decided to give the car a full respray and the results was very good. Also changed the front of the car and getting a shit load of trouble with the cops. The car is still dirty and needed a wash but i was advised not to do it and instead wait a few more days. This is how it came out. I decided to stay with the pearl white.
