Was given the car to me for free. I saw it sitting on some land in BC. Offered to buy it from them fir 3 years in a row. Finally they told me to take it off their land for free.

K03 me thinks I will go with. Now what if I were to say that I was going to transplant a gsxr 1000 in the front. Would the k03 still work nicely?

I would, but the 7 grand for the front fiberglass flip is ------- gay. That or extending the front fenders and hood 4 inches. Plus cost vs cost. I'd rather do the z cars hayabusa rwd conversion.
