Sorry to be picky, but you appear to have uploaded the "edit" view of the youtube page that carries the video clip we're trying to see.
Clicking that takes the reader to their own youtube content manager page and not the informative stuff about a car.

The "watch" view of the page will allow other folk to see what you've been doing with the car.

Nice work, it's always good to see someone putting this high standard of workmanship into a car that's yet to achieve the universal appeal - and higher resale asking prices - of the equivalent European cars from the era. You can't have too much Japanese content in an old car forum, IMHO, and these things can't be cheap forever so my (impartial? :oops: :lol: ) advice to anyone who wants something older, different or just plain weird that can withstand daily use without displaying undue temperament is this:
Buy Japanese cars now and soak them in your rust preventative fluids of choice, you can't really go wrong. There, that wasn't at all subjective now, was it.. :mrgreen:
