Sedanofdoom aka Laurel

So i got this car for around 1k a week or two back, idea is to build a simple, slightly mid (by my standards) car. Not calling it VIP, or VIpstyle. its just what i want to do. if it falls into something, whatever, but im sick of labels.


anyways
it was a stock C34 Laurel when i got it. 4 lug wheels with 5 lug hubcaps.
On the way is a UAS air setup, front wheels, and some other crap.
Ill be using this car to also make a series of How to videos on random stuff.

Anyways, here is my progress so far.
Installed:
Garson mirror
Garson Mink Chain
Garson Cig Lighter
KTS Coilovers
S14 5 lug swap
S14 brakes (i need smaller!)
JVC headunit w bluetooth.

Car is slammed as far as it can go on this aspect ratio of tire. 225/40 on 18x8 +30s isnt a great fit, but whatever. im waiting on tires.

nice, my mate built one few years ago.
he used s13 coils and that thing sat 50mm off the ground on highest setting.was on 17s tho.
we dropped a manual in it, chucked lsd and it was a mean skid machine!

I was thinking of that picture you took, of the guy with the Laurel changing a tire on the side of the road.

it snot like im asking people to buy me parts.
Im offering quite a bit in return of a small amount of money for the vendors of the site. I spent 1100ish on the camera to do this. If noone wants to help, its not a big deal off my back, saves me a month or two of editing and filming. and i still have a gangster car either way

Just wondering what kind of help you require to pull this through. Maybe then someone may feel compelled to offer you their assistance.
