How about the TV screens where the vanity mirrors should be?



Needless to say, that is one lucky kid.

The first one is parked in the same lot as my car right now, it is truly something to behold with your own two eyes.

That submerged GT-R looks better than it normally does!

Also, the 240 monstrosity is what most of the drifter kids' cars look like around here.

Sometimes you gotta put function over form.. why worry about the paint when its more than likely just gonna get smashed up again and again? Unless the owner doesnt actually take it to the track, then calling it a monstrosity is fair game

no, trust me... I'm being serious here. I see plenty of 240s, Miatas, etc. with these shift knobs





and a kid who works at a shop has a 240 with a pickup bed. It looks like even more of a work in progress than this 240:

^That car has too much What The Fuckery going on there.

1) Gauges on the passenger dash?
2) Zip tied Apexi unit?
3) Crooked as shit toggle switch placed off center?
4) Is that a blouse being used as the shifter boot?
5) Where the fuck is the steering wheel?
6) And of course, the dildo.

What's awkward is you called yourself out on it... and it's in an automatic TL.
