sorry to hear u had to max out ur CCs to build a car for a measely HIN show :/ ...i LOVE the interior and engine bay, as well as the rear diff, but...

the rims, fenders, canards, lip, skirts, and eyelids arent mixing well at all..

not to be an ***, but your cars lack soul.. sure there clean and have alot of parts on them.. but thats what are parts.. i have won alot of trophy's for my evo in the show circuit. but here is couple of things to do to, or not to do.... unless your car is a pile of parts, or have a stupid amount of money to put too many parts on, stay away from the shows like hin. your just asking to be let down..

also get rid of the fire ext. in the window, its a honda thing, buy bigger tires for that evo..

im just giving you an opion on your cars as any qualified real would judge would tell you.. your cars lack soul..

I think your 2 cars look great but, not enough to win a trophy. The judges look for certain qualities like is it unique, different from the rest, a car that really stands out. As far as the 3000GT is definitely not a show car because it has some flaws>>first thing is the boost gauge(no turbo), the GTO valve cover when it's not a GTO, played out body kit by bomex, no sign of crazy engine work or upgrade, wheels are to plain and serves no function, the rear spoiler, the paint, interior I can go on and on but, that's not the point. The point is to win at one of these shows you need money, alot of resources, and uniqueness it's not that easy it takes alot of money and time. If you want to win next time check out Gtpro, Pitroad-m, kazi aero these are places that sell high end stuff and are definitely unique in terms of products(str8 from Japan except GTpro). So check it out! Better luck next time..

Seibon and VIS sucks. I have all seibon and am unhappy with all of it. Mass produced CF parts FTL...

Car shows are lame with the judging most of the time.

Yea it is called a GTO in Japan the japanese version 4 the U.S. it's called 3000GT not much difference in the engine although there is a slight difference in power though but not much.
