Coils springs racing beat drop 1''
sway bars racing beat
bushings energy suspension
end links en euretane
mags rx8 18''
power slot disks
brake pads hps plus
racing steering wheel :P
front strut bar ( Mazdatrix )
rear strut bar
new ball joints
new tie rods
Short shifter
camber kit
new 4 wheel bearings






After handling, i tought that the 160 engine would need some steroids

Here is a lil sound clip

I kept the N/A hood, and you can barely see the intercooler, no1 knows its an turbo engine until i pass by
Im currently runnin on 8 psi until i get my mags done and i reveive some parts that took a lil while to get shipped, then ima tune it at 11 psi for a estimated power of 265 engine HP

Id like to thank francis for makin this swap happen

hope youve enjoyed it!
