Re: Nitin's 98 SiR S-Spec (page 7 - big plans revealed )

Thanks guys for the comments. Hoping it's complete by the end of this week, :scaredtoss:

Yes I do have the Red Recaro seats so should look almost identical to the Photoshop I did (including the S-Spec spoiler ;) )

I did think of Rota SpecR wheels as they're exact replicas of the 98 Spec wheels and they also have a better offset but I will see later on as the budget now is going on the respray. At the moment, I will just get the Enkei wheels done in white.

Regarding the overspray on some of the parts by the painter, they will be either getting replaced or repainted freshly to make the car look as new as possible. Will reveal how much I've paid at the end when it's all done.

I wouldn't consider this to be a Jordan Prelude as that's UKDM :nono: :violin: I would say it's a Type-R version that never made it in to productions. 220PS, LSD, Recaro seats and a rare JDM Colour = Prelude R-Spec :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :jdm:

Yep you got a point there, though it clearly shows yellow is a Honda colour.
Looking forward to the final pics/photo shoot - I predict awesomeness :mrgreen:

Looks great in yellow. As an ode to the love of your life, I think you should have some custom Jordan colour and style decals made.....

Thanks for the lovely comments. It was meant to finish this weekend but it’s pushed back to next weekend :cry:

Yes I’ll make some ratty stickers and yes you can take a photo with this car but you got to be nude.. :shock: :mrgreen:

Not usually a fan of yellow cars but have to say with that ride height it actually looks pretty damn good!
Maybe it's because most of Honda's factory options were quite understated/muted and so this is a refreshing change.
