Yahoo auction. Long story on how I found it...

 

I've been monitoring those auctions, I even learned how to search for "Subaru" in Japanese スバル so anyway, I spoted an auction that kept showing up for subaru + ff-1 but it didn't have a photo. So I babelfished the page, and it said "weber", "manifold" and "IDF44" in there when translated, so I figured it might be one of these manifolds.

 

I did more digging, clicked on the user name who posted it, and it turned out it linked to the SAME blog i've seen before (and posted) that had that manifold in it. So I had my source ask him if it was indeed the same manifold from the blog, and it turned out it was :)

A modified RX sedan that I found surfing Cardomain.

I think it looks better with the OZ wheels on it in one of the pictures.

I like the widebody retrofit. Front looks like bits from a WRX fender. Some of the lines are kinda hard, mainly the blending of the rear flares with the body, but theres something about it I like.

 

I do think the Silver wheels work with it, the White O.Z wheels are cool too.

 

This car could have really been something, its too bad the person doesn't have a real eye for detail (Interior for instance) and the Scoop. But to each their own, it does have some work put into it!

this is why we dont make rice rockets out of 30 some year old cars. i mean its cool, but i wouldnt want to drive it

 

You wouldn't want to drive it in fear of damaging all the work you put into it? Or would you be embarrased of being called a "ricer"? :drunk:

 

I know sh*t happens, which is why I'm not going to spend all the time taking all the little door dings and scratches out of my car. Some a-hole will bang his door into me regardless, or pull out in front of me, or smash into the back of me. So I will just make my cars look decent, but not mint; as long as I daily drive them that is. ;)

And I know that any car I build isn't going to be catagorized as "rice", it may not be the fastest thing around, but it will be boss. :cool:

Could you explain why do you Think that, sir? :confused:

 

I agree, the Sedan is still practical (Its a driving car lol) plus, its not so low that you have to pull into a parking lot at an angle. I just think some of the lines are a bit harsh and doesn't flow. With a little more work, that car could look really cool, almost a WRX-RX.

 

Pooparu's Widebody First gen is boss though!
