I'd do some research before buying track tires. You're going to go through them so fast driving at track speeds, you really want to find out what is the best performance/price combination for you.
17x8 and 17x9 IS the mazdaspeed fitment, i agree its like the perfect size.

and yeah if you're gonna buy track tires, buy track tires.

Early '90's YOURS SPORTS bumper. If you look closely on the windshield you'll see a "yours sports" sticker.

one of the only spoilers that i think would actually look good if someone decided to mold it in.
Reminds me of the TRD spoiler for the old ae86 corolla http://www.knightracer.com/shop/imag...01-500x500.jpg Some people mold them into the hatch, or buy a aftermarket hatch that already has it.

It is the GP sports kit, but they modified it.

There is another picture that speedhunters posted up.

Stock rear bumper and smoked tail lights. Looks kind of wierd with out the matching kit bumper.. maybe he was planning to run a diffuser.

Here is my edit http://i55.tinypic.com/34t7rpu.jpg
It kind of reminds me of Ironman 's face lol

just use fiberglass resin strands to fill in the lines, then shave the bumper lights with fiberglassing , then coat with body filler.

With the FTP lights, just modify them, stick a bulb in there. Karack's ftp lights would be cool, just wire them up to flash. https://www.rx7club.com/group-buy-product-dev-fc-rx-7-268/modded-fc3s-led-ftps-ver-2-0-a-938644/

keiichi isnt in the 1st shuto kousoku trial. he was introduced into the seires from the second one to promote taking racing to the track and keeping it safe. the first one was banned from jap cinemas coz of the anti police, rebelious street racer image that was portrayed.

great movies to watch. very nostalgic feeling when watching. get em!
