Purchase

Miguel from www.neweraimports.com has sourced this 1996 FD with a few nice extras. The car will definitely suit the RE-Xtreme project II plan.
Inital test drive proved interesting. Drifts well and pulls very hard indeed for a boost up car. Pan Speed works well and Kei Office Suspension is stiff but compliant. Clutch requires replacement in time. But otherwise a great machine.
