I'll keep selling these Fd parts. Then I'll rebuild motor, redo some wiring, switch to coilovers. Paint.

No, I'm on the waiting list too. I took burntorange's spot. I'm buying his spot from him.

Add about 150 more horsepower (pull LS1 and install cammed LS3), install my Ronin Mazdaspeed-style hood, HID headlights, and hopefully a 8.8 rear end in the spring.

I want to hear a review on fitment/quality of the ronin hood. I am looking to get a CF one for my FD this winter.

Initial fit looks pretty good. I went with the fiberglass version for my build (requires some modifications for the intake). I will post up pictures after paint.
