In that case, it turned out nicely. Not quite Top Secret gold, but the car looks good.

It looks really nice, I love the color.

Sweet, turned out well.

Would look great w/CF hood & trunk, I imagine.

isn't the top secret gold darker? on their website it looks darker and my friends accord is painted their gold too. whoever painted your car though did a good job.

Let him know how unsafe his restraint configuration is. In an accident, the seat would collapse... as would his spine. The restraints need to have a fulcrum point at or be mounted at the same elevation as the shoulder holes in the seat for proper support. This is not a safe setup right now.

Other than that, the car looks terrific. I don't know about that Azenis Sport rubber... looks out of place on an essentially "no holds barred" car.
G-force 04-03-2004 11:50 PM

it's a show car - I SERIOUSLY doubt that he even uses the harness for street use. Notice his factory belts are still there. Also those Takatas are a "Hassle Me Mr. Policeman" green!! :lol:
MB38 04-03-2004 11:57 PM

Nonetheless, the car *will* hit the street for some amount of time at some point in its life. At that time, the occupants will be safer using the factory safety belts.
collegedropout 04-04-2004 12:06 AM

Wow.....It doesnt look like a steamin pile. Your first post made me think nasty pile. Looks alright. You need to upgrade them headlights though. If the gold car in the pics is the Top Secret car it isnt that bad.

I'm still not sure if I like the Top Secret gold paint job or not. For some reason, it doesn't seem to goes as well w/the WRX's lines, as on other TS gold cars, like the TS 350Z, R34 Skyline, and Supra TT.

But MUCH props on being original, and [color=red][b]even BIGGER UPS for your kicks!!! XII Retro Playoffs are NIIIIICE!!![/b][/color] :)

that is correct.. the deflection for the shoulder harnesses should no be no more than 0 to 35 degrees parallel to the floor of the car or seat. Azenis are decent street tires with a lot of grip.. I use them for autocrossing.. it's sad to see that it's missing a full rollcage to scare off the people.. if anyone is going this far for a show car to be gutted, it should have a full functional rollcage painted in the same color with the ECU remounted on the back of rear seat bench.

My 2 cents..

Car looks clean and good paint work.

MB38 04-04-2004 01:27 AM

I know the Azenis Sports are good tires, I'm stuck between them and ES100s for my car, but I'd expect R-compound rubber on a show car. :)

Damn that looks pretty sweet.
:eek:
500hpwrxsti 04-04-2004 08:39 AM

I think the color of the car is very nice although, I dont feel that the bronze Volks look right with the paint. I would ve went with a black rim or had the volks color matched. Just my opinion.
Sokudo 04-04-2004 09:40 AM

really nice color !...i love everything about it..:)
Maicca 04-04-2004 10:54 AM

Car looks nice, but I don't like the color..........maybe in the daylight, though?? :confused:

Change out the lugs to black ones............are those Ray's Lugs??

Change the badge to carbon fiber bunny :lol:

What's the engine looking like??

DAMN! Beautiful car. Everything is perfect. Love the color. Are you thinking of doing a carbon fiber hood?
quest 04-04-2004 08:40 PM

ooh ooh...pic request! If you take some shots, could you please take a pic or two of the hole between the trunk and where the back seat used to be? I'm obsessed with the folding rear seat idea, but have never seen a pic of an 02 or 03 with no rear seat.

Thanks!

ps. that thing looks better n better each time i see it...love the CF trunk

It'll take you all of 5 minutes to take your own rear seat out.

wait do you know Flux @ all, jus wonderin they told me they will have a top secret gold WRX roll, so I thought that was you?
Raslian 04-04-2004 10:29 PM

Wow, I absolutely love that color. At certain angles it looks like a really deep gorgeous gold, and at others it turns out to be a really metallic muted gold...best paint I've ever seen I must say.

lol...I'm a giant puss though ;) not to mention completely retarded when it comes to anything car related....guess I'll just have to give it a shot.
quest 04-05-2004 05:38 AM

also: for any monster garage fans out there...that color reminds me of the color they used on the hot rod they made with all those old legend guys.

I believe he was referring to the lines of the car.
palmerx141 01-19-2005 11:07 AM

I know this a super old post but i just wanted to tell the guy who said you cant get Top Secret gold that hes wrong. You can buy it right from Top Secret for 465 a quart.

[QUOTE=subaruwrx0_0]i dont understand your comment, but getting the actually paint code, and paint matching is totally two different things. I am an autobody painter so yeah i do agree paint is never the same. but getting WRB like paint and getting actual paint code is something different. Similar means nothing. Especially with such high quality paint like TSG or VG. I have tried getting those, even being a painter myself, and they refuse to hand it out. Maybe i just dont have the right connections, but I find it impossible in my own experience. hey you know if the dude who got the paint says it's real then imma a$$, but most likely not, i would appreciate it if he say if it is or not. Like yesterday, i paint a civic seal grey metallic, which is the color off of porsches. Paint code from porsche, they don't offer it exactly, color is 3 tones dark or lighter. It is like copyrights, it's illegal!!![/QUOTE]

an autobody painter huh, SOMEONE SOUNDS LIKE A JEALOUS DOUCHEBAG!!!!!! :disco:

whoa!! old thread!!!
blaznasn 01-19-2005 07:52 PM

you can get the paint, it is no secret, i have two friends who have painted their accord and supra that color.
