Combine with oldschool Jap rims and you're sorted.

Is it just me, or do Watanabes make any old school Japonese car look HOT!!! 8)

Anyway, period race modifications are the only way to go, and when you see some of the older Japonese racers, you'll know why :D

Yes. Yes they do. Combine with bolt on flares, chin spoiler and in some cases external oil cooler, and folks...... we have a winner.

Still, I'd prefer a set of SSR Mark II's if I had to chose.......

Yeah it's good to see the curve of the bottom of the panels, especially if theres a wide-ass rim sticking out.

Bolt on flares and chin spoiler's should be exceptions to this rule.
