That black EF was at a show a few months back, and the silver EK was at USC a few weeks back. Both are awesome.

Ahh, not far off!

They look Mint on this IMO:

EDIT:

Diamond racing is run by 1 man, who does it part time. He has a store out by the airport with broken windows and to be honest the company I'm talking to is surprised hes still in business. He buys his wheels off American racing and rebrands them.

did not know this!

[Englebert]

K. Enough tin boxes.

 

[Gaz.]

That drifting Red S14 is on 15s, bit too small IMO.

project pheonix!! its on the boat atm and should be here in 6 weeks! i would love to do it the way he has but its a bit of a s**t the way it all came about...

 

[bendee]

i dont know the details he hasnt told me but i knew something went wrong with his last one?

 

[MaLicE]

had work done on it... then on his way home... it set on fire lol! massive fuel leak or something... which is what was done during the work... afaik anyway

 

[bendee]

ahh i thought something went wrong as i guess he wasnt giving details away on the net incase of messing a court case up or anything. was it totalled?

 

[MaLicE]

as far as i know yeh... he didnt say anything someone on the rx7 club spotted him on fire on the side of the road... then it all got taken off and hushed up....
