Some of you guys may have seen my non-roadster build thread stating that I was going to convert my daily driver (2003 Lex GS300) into a toy by way of swapping in a JDM Aristo 2JZ-GTE, single turbo, 500whp, suspension, etc.

Scrap that.

I just put a deposit down to hold my next project and it is another roadster. And I won't be starting from scratch on this one. It's already a spectacular example and what's been done has been done right. I'll be taking it, babying it and putting my spin on it.

It will be phat.

That is all. (for now)

SHORTCUTS:

Got the car home from Tampa, FL to Dallas, TX

Got the '95M seats recovered in '93LE red and installed

Installed the Nakamae carpeted center console

XIDA installation woes

Got my M2 1028 steering wheel and Runabout Mirrors

Teaser pics of interior with M2/Revlimiter/Nakamae goodies and exterior with custom Eunos stripes and other misc. hotness

Great pics from a photo shoot with Justin (tsxser)

The last bit of "Miata" is gone from the car. All of the branding is now "Eunos Roadster".

Installed Bellof low-pro headlights and a unique "EUNOS" badge on the rear. - GOOD pics of the Bellof Lights here.

Awesome, cheap eBay aluminum radiator install. Took a chance and it paid off. This thing has been great.

Scored some legit wheels off Yahoo! Japan auctions.

Takes 1 and 2 on the SSR Watanabe RS-8's. All Bronze. Follow for a page or 2 to see all pics.

Final take on the SSR Wats. Bronze center, chrome lips. Also...Rooster goes to Albuquerque to hang out with Sharka and Flipper.

Rooster gets a feature

Road trip blogs and route coverage. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

The work begins on a built '99 head swap.

^^ Awesome! My new desktop for everything I own with a screen :) Can't wait to see the rest of the series! :)
Must.... Have.... Red.... Interior!

Your car is looking so beautiful now, can't even imagine how it wil turn out in The future!
And congratulations to you and your missus with the baby girl:D
Thanks! I think silverstone over red would be even nicer than white over red. I'd love to see that combo.
Do you have a higher resolution, I would like to wallpaper it aswel :D I love the car

Very nice pics!

Question is...is that plate colored just to go with the car, or is someone an Aggie?

<<<<has an Aggie wife
*NOT AN AGGIE*

Just color-matched to the car :)

I thought so, but figured it couldn't hurt (too much) to ask :lol:
Those mirrors are wonderful.
