its Nate P's car from the old Team Kosoku days

yea its showy but still a nice car

 

Gotta his license plate.

 

hey charlie....probly for the same reason they used to put supra tails on

 

i remeber seeing it in some mag.....didnt it used to be a darker blue?

 

it used to be black with the jdm 6 light front end

 

It was on tha cover of IMPORT TUNER back in spring 99.....................

 

He was on the cover to an old Superstreet issue too....before the Lambo door days.

 

needs some apc lights .....

 

who's your fren?

 

wow the owner of jdmhondaparts' car is right next to it

 

Definately different...back in the day.

 

I remember that car when it was not wide body yet and had the MR2 side intakes getting mold on to it. It was at A&A autobody. I think Alan was helping him out too. I don't remember it was too long ago. I do remember them telling me that the old bumper was made by using an integra bumper with a supra bumper and custom lip molded in to one. I used to love that car back then. Except the color. What ever happened to that car?

 

looks fugly, poor integra

 

I never liked that car...... But the work looks quality

 

I have the Super Street issue where that car was on the cover, from early 1997. It was that same color, same side vents, MR2 tails, but it had the Saleen wing back then, I think... regular doors, and I forget which wheels

*edit* what the?! RHD conversion?? cool if you got the money I guess

I agree, his license plate is kind cool though.

 

i talked to nate just a few days ago...he said his car was in peices in his back yard...all wrench time and it ends up in peices...

 

ah, the olden days. when nobody used the word rice to describe ANYTHING they didn't like. i miss those days.

 

nates car was OG...

 

Dayam, thats old school for ya! Nate Pagtama's 94 GSR. That car was a turning point for the import scene. Crossed the line of keeping it original and started the whole taillight, headlight, and bodywork trend. Indeed back then, that car would be gawked at to the caliber of say Shawn Hillier's hatch. Back then the whole modifying your car with quality JDM parts wasn't as prevalent -- best days in my opinion. These days you got all these trend followers trying to emulate it all. Sad how something so divine, became so diluted.

 

yea i remember my fren telling me nate was offered 30k for his car but he turned it down

 

 

those car show days were a lot of fun...i personally like that teg and whats been done...perfect show car thats not over too exagerated! Now most of the people in the whole import scene are POSERS!

 

some how..i think if that car wasnt RHD, this board would some how forget that they liked it 3 years ago, and flame it hard..
