if it was mine, like i said, kept in a case for years. I bought at autoworld in metro a few years ago for some stupid price , i sold it to them for 25 $ lol

you get an parts list/order sheet and you fill it out and then he gives you a price breakdown. that much i remember... if you look at his other stuff there is another s2000 he finished and that is the one that made me do it. that one was something like $200-300 in a total ground-up rebuild. it even has plug wires, coilover suspension, and working lights 
too scared to do this stuff on my own. results are never good.

kodamu do you know anyone at daboxtoys?
i wanted to try daboxtoys (i like their dioramas)... 
but when i wanted to order gt spirit stuff, daboxtoys charged dearly for shipping and did not answer messages online... which is why i ended up going to mini911 instead
