It's probably the only $25k car that gets mistaken for a Porsche lol. I've had people come up to me at shows and ask how well this "Porsche" handles

Cracks me up!

Well done on sticking with N/A! Brave but will be awesome when completed.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the TRD trunk plaque? I didn't notice on the TRD JP catalog site. Also, is it a 3M tape sort of deal?

I like what is going on here, but I am curious, are you building the motor up and adding a turbo just like Quirt's BRZ or are you just building the motor up and keeping it NA?

I would prefer to stay na. I figure I may add a turbo later. My son and quirt both bust my chops about putting a turbo lol. My original plan was to make it like Crawford BRZ but I changed it to an NA build modeled after my ex nsx. Lets see

I like my women natural as well lol
