Looks good, body kit isn't really my taste. Your set though!

thanks,
what dont you like about the kit?

-Dustin

I'm drooling looking at that body kit, don't worry about it dustin.

I want your car's babies. Interior and exterior are both mint, way to keep it alive :icon_tup:

Wow, I've never really been a fan of shaved side moldings, but your car is definitely an exception. What are your goals with this car?

where are you in MI?

Thanks a lot guys,

(MaczPayne)- I plan to get my parts installed in the next two weeks, then drive as much as possible to break in the new rebuild;) I want to be at a comfortable 350hp. Next, I want to get some nice black cloth seats(MOMO) and mabie an MSD box?? Hey I was born in riverside back in 84! Moved to MI in 1990, havnt been to so-Cal since 94!

(Need RX7)-yea, I'm in Bay City area.

I too am not to much of a fan of shaved moldings, but yours is very nicely done. Makes the body more round which is good, but the kit is to rigid and sharp which in my opinion disturbes the flow of what you were trying to accomplish. otherwise good mod list, you need more coilovers.

Mmmm. Well done.

When shaving the moldings I was trying to clean up the car. I think the moldings disrupt the "clean-cut" of its sharp 80's lines. But thanks guys, anybody have similar set-up??

-Dustin

also... I will install intercooler set-up with new rebuild.

hey MaczPayne, we have the same B-day. Jul 9:101384_l:

Body kit - Nahhhhhh. Stock lines are much cleaner, the factory knew what they were doing when they put the car out. S5 bumpers, and the S5 lip is the best look for these cars.


However, the rest of it is done tastefully. :icon_tup:

well... I like more of an aggressive stance.
I like the offset for wheels to be right out to the top of the fender. The only problem with this is that the bottom of the rear fenders curl a bit in so the wheels appear to stick out from behind. My Aero kit takes away from that with a Slight flare, not anything to much like a shogun style or anything. I just like the look with it shaved, It just looks Sharper, I know the side moldings are functional(take impact from a door or shopping cart) but I would rather take style for that particular function.

...I usually park next to permanent things in parking lots to better my odds not to get hit by doors/other things. And I dont mind the extra walking;)

-Dustin

looks clean but its about a foot too tall for me but then again i like em rediculously low. cant even get the toe of my shoe under my bumper

Hey Stevensimon, post some pics of your 7, I am considering coilovers.

-Dustin

Here's one of mine on Stance GR+ Pro's. I'm going to be testing them on the road course next month, I've heard nothing but good things about them. I thought mine was too low, then I saw Stevensimon's. His car is like, 1 d-cell battery high.

Haha, small world ain't it? Same birthday, same hometown! Don't you miss socal weather?

I think that looks pretty good. The only thing that I dont 'fancy' is the front end. It looks like it was robbed since there aren't any visable blinkers or FTP's. I'd get the stock turn signals and smoke them black, along with some FTP's. But yeah, nice ride. It's my new desktop background for this week :) (And your car's gotta be something to go there).

ha ha! Thanks Pimpdaddy:)
I will install some front turns soon...I mean you ARE required to have them:cool:

man do I ever miss the Hot Dry weather of Palm Springs!

-Dustin.

Dude- I like everything about that car. Black, rims, kit, hell- even the s4 tails.

The wheels are rockin'- nice stance, sanitary interior. Very nice- don't change anything cosmetic. Liking the conspicuous absence of a wing- very clean.

nice, nice...thanks! I like the look without a wing too. Though I do like te efinni (however you spell it) wing.

-Dusin.

I too shaved off the moldings. Lot of people on the forum say the mouldings should stay. I think removing them makes the car look more modern. My only regret is shaving the handles (Sometimes it can be a pain in the ass). I have seen a FC with no body kit and shaved mouldings and that car definitely looked retarded.

Car looks sweet bro, nice! I that like a flat white?

-Dustin

Looks good!

nice clutch set, i have the same one also still in its package ^_^
