Yeah, ill take a picture of it. Kevin, if the 323 is a GT or GTX ill take it. If its just a plain jane 323, none of the parts interchange. Everything is different.

 

Yo,


Okay, I'll check on it. When's the ETA for your CYM running? Gotta burn all the cobwebs offa it!! *grin*

KS

PS: I got a FAT RX-7 poster you'd kill me for.

 

Opiston well as for the last drag meet we both ran the same time but track was not friendly to us and my boost controller **** on me. but as far as who is faster it s the one with the most skill, and we know who that is! (me)!
here is a pic with the hood on the car finally still waiting my turn patiently to get in the paint booth
i used to have a 323 gtx turbo here it was called a familia though 4wd fun as hell to drive blew the clutch and both front cv joints and junked it, wish i would have kept it now!

 

Yo,



Soul Assassin, your rig is gonna be SICK when it's painted. Keep those pics comin'!!

KS

 

Cool, thanks man. Couldnt start it last weekend, the downpipe im borrowing is cracked. So rather than fire it up with a big exhaust leak, im getting the downpipe fixed. Also, need to figure out why the starter isnt working. Other than that, its ready to drive home. Looks really sweet.

 

Yo.




Seth, once you get it running, bring it up here to Sacto on Wednesday night and we'll run it at the fun drags! Only 12 bucks!

Alf.... You suck!:-)
I think after your car is done, it will be the most beautiful FC I have ever seen!
Hope it's done before the snow flys!!

 

well it should be done no later than sunday! (knocking on wood)
so no snow till dec (knocking on wood even harder)
CYM i would also like to see a pic of that wing

 

well what do ya think? got them rolled today.

 

of course we still need to put some filler on it to get rid of the ripples but overall i like it!

 

Wow, you really went to town on those poor fenders...
i like it-

What size rubber are you going to try to shove under there?

 

well i am running 275 40 17's in back but now iam thinking 315 40 17 nittos 555r's would look nice!

 

whp makes the fender roller in the pic? got a link?

 

it's just a little tool company here in japan highly doubt they have a website let alone in english.

 

most tire/rim shops if they are worth a damn will have that tool. especially if the shop sells rims 21-24" in size. They will usually rent you the tool so YOU can do it yourself right there. Or you can rent it from tirerack.com.

 

Yo Soul Assassin,



About the fender rolling...I'm torn. With the square fender flares the FC has, the round lip might look a little off. I'm sure once it's painted, it'll look a lot better. Also, since you've got so much power going to the rear wheels, it might be a functionality over aesthetics kind of thing, which I understand. Either way, your car will still be the FC all others are compared. *grin* Get to work in the booth!

PS: If I go on the TAS trip, you better take me for a Wangan battle!

 

i take my car to the TAS every year iwill be there this year also! and all ya got ot do is gimme a call when ya get down this way and we can go play on the wangan, hopefully i will have my 6th gear in and we can top out over 300kmh!

 

how much do they charge for one? I am interested in one for the shop. Beats the hell out of a baseball bat.

 

You really need some wider front fenders to go along with it ... rolling the rears was something I forgot until after the guy was done painting it. Instead I just cut the inside lip off. That's good enough for an extra 10mm or so.

 

the one we got we actually bought it, it came up to about 300 bucks but once we are done with it we can sell it to the tunning shop and make our money back

 

Should look great. I have seen an RX with the rear lip rolled just like yours. It works well with the fenders (aesthetically speaking) and that guy had the biggest meats I have seen on a 2nd gen stuffed in there. Love that nose. Can we get that here in the states yet. I'd like to make that front work with my Tri-Point flare kit.

 

shipping would be the most, if you like i cn hook u up with a front end kit ut be woraned it is goiing to be about 2k including shipping

 

SOLD! But a few questions I must ask. What is the shipping alone to San Francisco, CA (estimate) vs. the actual cost of the nose. Also, does that include the lights and lens covers? How flexible are the ends that cover up where the lower half of the front fender is/was. I ask because they must be able to somehow bend out more than stock to fit with my flare kit. How soon could you 'hook this up'?
