that last pic, this happened on the highway on the way home one day.
Some guy in a truck slammed on his brakes, cuz he thought a cone was in the road, since the road was wet I locked my brakes trying to stop, and hit his trailor hitch. ...LAME!

Later.

Yes I am....
My friend Brad from Evolution Motorsports is a fabricator, and is doing it for me.

He built his own car using a ford festiva, and stuffed in a Nissan Pulsar AWD Turbo drivetrain in it, everything is custom. it has 500HP.

When it's done, I'll send more pics hahaha

FY!-- go for a better IRS than the FC. try miata if youre going to go for it.

looks pretty good. imo, get rid of the Z decal on the rear, fix the front header panel, put a dual tip muffler on(i personally think it looks beter than a single tip) and you'll have a great looking car!!! glad to have you back!

Sorry, could you enlighten us heathen Yanks please? "The N rule"

Mark04 05-19-07 09:59 AM

yeah hahahaha!
The "N" is not a "Z" decal on the rear of the car.
it's a Magnetic "N". It stands for "new Driver"
you have to have an "L" for one year while you're learning with parents, or in driving school, Then, you have to have the "N" for 2 years, Enabling you to drive by yourself, with One Passenger, or as many family members as you want.
While you are on your New Drivers license, you must display the "N" until youhave your Full license.

I couldn't agree more. The FC's IRS is, well... definitely not even half as great as the Miatas. And as far as the Miata goes, yes they had an optional lsd in them. Even if you got one that didn't have an lsd in it, you could always buy one. The Miata has one hell of an amazing IRS. If you are going to be going through a lot of hassles doing a IRS setup, make it a good one.

Mark04 05-21-07 12:27 PM

haha ok, but the 2nd gen car is right there, in front of me........but not a miata. I don't have the money to go get a miata lsd rear diff.
