Could use more car footage with him ripping it like that evo clip instead of his sob story about money being dominant.
It was a personal story that not all would be willing to share about their financial obstacles in a project. Showed how much Brian loved the car.
Except I think he could've showed the Richmond Subaru black car story as well :troll:

I know this is a car forum so I'll probably be flamed to death over this but how does one get into $12k debt for car parts? At one point do you not just go like, "maybe I should pay off my debt before buying more parts?"

Let me get this straight, - so you got your 15 minutes of fame by putting yourself into $12,000 worth of debt for a stupid car?
I have a suggestion - Buy a better car with real money, not your credit cards.

liked the story and the dedication behind the car
video was a little too sappy for my taste though...caption and sad piano music felt a little too strong but agreed better than 99% of your other click-baity work...last tunnel shot was sick.

Well done. This car has definitely come along way. Seriously loving the colour and the whole look of the car.
Inspiration for me to never give up as well!

More ripping, less talking would have been a bit better.
However, I can totally relate to the sacrifice and the money. This hobby is a fickle bitch and it will swallow your soul if you're not careful. Curious why people would fail him by speaking on it. We're not all mainland rich and even if we were it still takes a shit ton of money to get a car to this level. Most of us could have stock Porsches for the money we've spent on our Japanese tuner cars.
The car itself doesn't WOW me(I'm more of a GD guy) but the dedication is pretty epic. The sacrifice makes the juice that much sweeter.

Why are people butt hurt? Video was good, car is even better. One of my favourite STIs. Not sure why him going 12k into debt on the build affects any of you

Next time ask Singular Entity to make the video.
Nice car, nice video, but the commentary was overly scripted and felt like he was reading off a screen. Also, I recognize the body shop! Must've been before the new owners took over.

I'm normally not a fan of bodykits and such on any car, but this car is completely different and very well done. The colour couldn't be better either.

Only depressing thing about the video was it wasn't long enough...
Nice work!

would have loved to hear more on how he overcame the thought of selling it and gone into the build process. Other than that, i like blau and his cah

Not like he made a gofundme asking for donations to pay off his debt :badpokerface::troll:

what about his FD

I think he ended up buying a supra instead of the FD

You're right. This car was done there way before the the new owner came in.

first i would like to say the video was awesome.
i dont know this guy but he has earn my 100% respect, this video was not just about the car it was everything to do with the car he dreamt of and the difficult journey he went thru, the fact that he was out front with the financial situation, makes him real and not sugar coating it.
i have gone thru the 4 am breakdowns and had to bus it too. spent all my money just to achieve my vision of a perfect ride, even tho friends and family disagreed.
i have given up twice left her in pieces, there are times i avoided the garage so i dont have to see her like that. i blew 3 motors and spend countless hours wrenching. sleepless nights and gallons of tims. but once it was finally completed. i reflected on the 2 years of new friends, the knowledge i learnd. late night pho' or no.9. runs. just to listen to her screammm and drive the way you want her to.... it was all worth it.

Thank you for the compelling story. (Not.)
The video was great. Sure. Whatever. But why make it a sob story over money? I don't care how you spend your money but to make a video about it like some kind of memoir where the real theme is "I blew my money irresponsibly on a car so I could buy some peer approval" from a bunch of dim witted dweebs off the Internet and think this is Initial D?
You kids need to get out more and stop living at home.

That was a nice video. Good job for sticking through with the build!
If you guys want ripping video just watch his track videos:
