My pride is, above all, the wax-free body color and one-off… [fragment]
I love the body color because it needs no wax, and the one-off styling! The suspension uses HKS Hyper Dampers and feels great. We’ve had a child, so tuning is difficult, but I drive it for outings and work. I’d like to persuade my wife so I can build a [car/part]…

Tomoaki Uesugi (22); Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture
My pride is that there is absolutely no other one like it in Kyushu yet… [fragment]
My pride is the B-Wave front bumper, which you hardly see in Kyushu! I also love the paint: pearl white mixed with blue, which glows subtly at night. I often visit a certain mountain pass, so say hello if you spot me! When I’ve saved up, I plan to buy a wastegate.

The rear spoiler and TOMS rear under-spoiler complete the aero kit; the homemade triple round headlights and Type R emblem make it stand out! The suspension is firm with TRD + RS-R; TRD parts are fitted for intake/exhaust. I’m going to add Levin taillights and turn it into a “Trev Levin” [wordplay]!

…but it looks like it needs an overhaul soon.
I’m still not satisfied with the specifications, and it has already traveled over 100,000 km, so it may be time for an overhaul…
