OS Giken is awesome. That motor really screams.

Another thing added to the shopping list.

Heldenzeit · Nov 3, 2014

Start saving haha. I've heard they are asking $30k+

Crossing out things on the shopping list~

Is that the whole package or just the head? I want the head.

Nevermind, just heard it was 7 grand. Screeewww that.

I'd be lying if I said I was a fan of 'stanced' cars, and part of me was gonna post this in the Questionable Mods section, but damn it, I do love the look of this. Still a tad too low for me though.

The wheels are too big and it's bit too low for me. I'd prefer standard 75.

That plate is questionable, but I do like the car.

Legro · Nov 3, 2014

Swagon.

As far as I'm concerned, the tasteful modification here is the lack of modification. The dang thing's nearly cherry:

Hard to find a stock S12 nowadays.

Don't I know it. I've been wanting another one since the early 90s and now that my daughter's striking out on her own I'm actually on the hunt.

I like it and I know I shouldn't.

It's quite old but i quite like this Q45 V8 twin turbo 240Z.

It's now low enough for easier zimmer-frame access in the boot 👍

Too much wheel and not enough rubber, and I'm not sure what's going on with the hind quarter but it looks awkward.

I had to look that one up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_(mobility)

Limited production race motors are expensive. Very expensive. :ouch:

I wish real life was like Automation. Just build your own motor from the ground up. Don't worry about money and increase the technology

Oh i agree. The wheels and tyres aren't to my taste either, same with the blue headlights.. The squared and flared front and rear arches quite suit it though (imo of course), although i do prefer ZG flares and such, just felt this was a little bit different from the norm.

Different view:

Well the lottery is really high this week. :dopey:

Yeah, I just assume go with something entirely different for what something like that costs. It's just an impressive modification for an L. Imagine the CSRV head on an L28.
