Originally an early '91 red GT. It was side swiped and I found a clean LX body in the JY for $200. Everything except the hard brake lines was swapped. During the rebuild, nothing was done to the engine, which had 157,00 miles at the time. Instead the suspension was improved. I love the turn out of the stance, it has a nice subtle rake effect.
