Default April '02 Super Street

Anyone see that red GSR with the JDM front and ITR motor/tranny/susp/brakes?
Pretty nice...
Anyone notice something missing on the USDM motor?

It's pretty funny how Super Street is trying so hard to be Option2. Not that I'm complaining, because I like Option2 (from what I can gather from the pictures and smattering of English), but I'm wondering if they're alienating the brunt of their bling bling retard readers.

This month's issue has some killer rides in it.

I went out and bought his months issue of Stupid Street for that car alone. I told myself I would get a J-spec nose by spring. Coincidentially, I got a new credit card in the mail the same day. Funny thing is that the article says it was, "built on a budget". WTF? Are B18c5/R whatevers and 5 lug conversions growing on trees somewhere?

This JDM brand is getting really popular. I think it's going to be bigger than APC soon.

Considering that he works at his father's body shop, I guess we can deduce where part of his 'low budget' came from--at least labor-wise. He probably did the nose for under 2 grand total.

Sheng probably gave him a nice hookup on parts, as well.

Even still, there's no way that car is 'budget'. Way too much expensive stuff going on there.

Well Jeff, at least you'll know what your car will look like w/ the J-spec nose.
