The FAQ has a buyers guide that will help you out with what to look for.

Nothing too amazing about that car. Lowered, rims, 99 spec side skirts, no spoiler, stock nose, stock R1 lip, missing turn signals for no good reason, that's about it.

I recently saw this car on Speed Hunters as well. I was looking for pics of a Type 1 FEED bumper and this popped up from Google. I see the appeal of form, but function is bassackwards.

As others have said, its simply too low. The thing probably handles dangerously bad. The FD suspension geometry is amazing.

Just learn about it....
