alot of japanese folk buy these tints and brackets to avoid the toga speed camera's. toga's are the like toll roads where you pay to get on because its faster. so when im fixin to go out and about i just angel it really down so the camera dosent pick up a picture of it.

and thank you all for your kind comments the sad part tho, is that those were taken yesterday morning, and at id say 4pm the raining/monsoon season started here and in japan, there is so much pollution that it basically rains dirt on everything and it will be this way for another month or two *cry*

^ that is the truth. I hate this time of year when it rains, because of the damn spots it leaves on your car.

And be carefull with that license place bracket, when they setup checkpoints like at the underpasses on 16, if your plates are angled too much, its a ticket Its rare, but it happens

yeah, no problem. I have things planned for the next few weekends, but I'll see what I can do about getting over to Z to give you a hand soon.

As far as an engine, I'll see what I can find. Probably looking about $1200 to $1500 for a Gen 3
