2nd to last row 4th col.

they all look nice to me!

So are you looking for the bling award, want a pat on the ass or just need validation for your work. Just playing with you. Your work is outstanding and most of us appreciate the quality and effort.

Now, not to insult you, I have to vote for the bottom row, column 1 and 2. The 3 rotor is a given and I am partial to that purple. I have some purple powdercoat on my 2nd gen. When I posted pics of it on the 2nd gen forum, I got ragged, so I spend most of my tinme here.

Damn nice work on the collage.

rxtory 02-19-06 08:52 PM

3rd row 4th is mine i like the red, not to fanc, just right

blwfly 02-19-06 09:09 PM

i love them all whish i was evan close

rotaryrudy 02-19-06 09:16 PM

last row, first column just b/c its a 20b with a massive turbo. After that i would like the 3rd row 3rd column. I like the black and not so much "bling" as all of the others. I like simple understated speed over over the top looks.

Lee Lyons 02-19-06 09:25 PM

I want them all...

pimpncuba 02-19-06 09:58 PM

no pvc!?!?! i would vote for any one of them with pvc tubing, but i guess that 20b and 4 columns right and 1 row down are purty

diabolical1 02-19-06 10:02 PM

2nd row, 3rd column :)

MattG 02-19-06 10:07 PM

5th row 3rd column! God I love orange!

Lt. Dan 02-19-06 10:23 PM

5th row, 2nd column... velocity stacks are cool!!!!

southernrunner 02-19-06 10:52 PM

1st column, 4th row. I just love that blue o the housings. I want mine like that, The car the same color too. Hell I just want an engine that runs. lol

R×7 02-19-06 11:09 PM

vipernicus42 02-19-06 11:29 PM

2nd last row, 2nd column. Go Carbs!

Where is the stock nikkie? Am I the only one who likes the way it looks?

So are you looking for the bling award, want a pat on the ass or just need validation for your work
... I'll take "Pat on The ass" for $100:D

I actually made the collage so that when my car is ready I can Put in there and make a big poster for my room. When I'm finished, I'll probably blend a pic of a rotor or housing with photoshop so it looks a bit cooler. I hoped to add alot more cars though.

Show me a clean stock engine bay, and I'll put it in there. I ran with a stock nikki for a few years myself. I lost my pic collection when my PC crashed, so my library is limited.

85 FB 02-20-06 04:03 PM

3rd row, 5th column. I like how he did the orange, along with the orange lettering on the manifold.

And can't neglect the 20B motor.......that's one huge turbo. :D

Hey, you forgot one important one. Mine! :rlaugh: j/k But check out that alternator man, that's 10 extra horsepower because there's no dirt to cause wind drag for the pulley. :rlaugh: Sorry, couldn't help myself.

MattG 02-21-06 03:25 AM

Note: This is for trial basis only!

vipernicus42 02-21-06 05:50 AM

And after all that, the car with the downdraft that I loved so much turns out to be an Rx2. It's featured in this month's MazdaSport magazine. Nice engine bay, very sweet... but not a 7.

Jon

luiml73 02-21-06 10:02 AM

I know..I know.... the orange one is not a 7 either.. I think it's an RX3, but they look so good I had to throw them in there.

Max7 02-21-06 11:34 AM

At least my car made the list, woo hoo!. Too bad it don't look like that anymore :(

luiml73 02-21-06 08:21 PM

I'm going to throw it in as a wildcard:D. My question is: Why go through the trouble of painting the housings, Front Cover, and Alt to leave the radiator like that. It could look alot better in my opinion.

trochoid 02-22-06 06:59 AM

If you are refering to my stipped to the bare metal and clearcoated radiator, that is the old ratrod look to go with my matte black body paint. :D Old school all the way with the body kit, Epsilons and paint. I've been pleasantly suprised that most people like the matte black paint in person.

Btw, that is not paint on the rest of the engine and accessories, it is all powdercoat, and I dood it meself.:rlaugh:
