Good thread

 

Here you go



Lifting her skirt a bit

 

Banzai, I see you finally added those flares. Here's mine!

 

Is that a plexiglass rotor shaped window on your hood? WHAT thats so sick!

 

Thx! Yea I stole the idea from the Zr1 Corvette. It's a nice way to show off the ITB's. It's actually more than just a glass panel. I also reworked the underside with fiberglass and built a rotor shaped air filter. When you close the hood, it seals against a carbon fiber panel on the engine for a ram air effect from the front scoup. I would show pics but it needs some more refinement. Its also got red and blue leds.

 

 

looks like you have a blown halo... very nice builds gentlemen

 

It's an older pic. Halos been fixed!

 

Rejckt, what color scheme you going with?

 

I've been meaning to ask you were you buy the red wrinkle paint or is that powerder coated? I bought some red wrinkle paint for my intake but it had more of an orange tint.

 

Desert red, powder

 

Thx! My intake is kinda hacked together so I couldn't powered coat it. Over the summer I'm gonna rebuild it out of aluminum. We'll see how it turns out them.

 

Just solid vr. stock mirrors, stock hatch. Not a fan of the 2 tone even though i'm a ricer.

 

Damn those are nice cars! My own looks terrible right now after some idiot backed into me in a parking lot and I decided to fix the holes from removing the spoiler…but it sounds great.

 

^ Hey you got yours running so that's an accomplishment. Sounds good!

 

^ love watching these swaps come into life!

Now you have a good excuse to put a nice paint job on your FD!

Probably not the prettiest, but definitely one of the most innovative

does rx8 count?

 

^ Nice! I like that you moved the engine back also. How does it handle?

 

thanks! handles like stock. kept electric power steering and rack in the stock position.

 

^in the stock location??? I remember following your build on 8club(I think it was your build) I thought you had to move the powersteering. If you decide to fab up another engine mount kit, I'll be 1st in line to purchase.
