Default buildin a car...need ur opinion

alright well im in the process of building a show car with a lil go....around 300whp go..lol =P but witha rice flavor...

now right now i have

r33 front
buddy club sides
buddy club rear
seibon CF hood
Ground controls with AGXs
17in g-racin sekis with kuhmos...(soon to be changed)
megan strut and tie bars
holley exhaust
AEM short ram

the body will stay pretty much what it is right now...but goin to add f1 fenders with feels rear wide body panels and gonna add a BW spoiler.

engine i think imma go b18c1 turbo and push somewhere between 250-300...either that or k20a2.....what do you guys think?

Be honest...

I don't know what car this is but...

if you're going to put a r33 front-end on anything...other than a r33 skyline. Its going to be butt ugly.

And how in the world can you have "need ur opinion" in the title, and try and cover the eventual negative remarks by stating "to each their own" within your thread?

well if you have a body shop who is going to give you quality work, then i say go for it. If it were me I would do the engine mods/work first and get the car running strong and then add what ever you would like. What are your plans for the car?
