LoL thanks guys. Yea i dont like the pillar either but its all i have right now but its only temporary i want the Dummy Cluster gauge pod.

Dont worry the wheels wont be on long at all and i have vert wheels on it temporarily..

The Intercooler piping hole on the Right side (driver side) isnt big enough. My piping is custom the previous owner had the greddy front mount so i guess its runs a lil different.

And the decal is also from the previous owner, i dont mind it for now.. i got lots to do to the car especially suspension wise... and i still have to get it tuned. I want her slammed i just need to find some coilovers.

What color wheels do you guys think would look nice.. I was considering all black even the lip, Gold/Bronze, Or Silver with Mirror Lip... What you guys think?

Nice car man...can't wait to see it slamed on some nice wheels. I think silver or mirror finsh would go better with the color.... Just my two cents.

Front bumper is correct color. It's the rest of the car that is off.

It's the pearl paint, has different shades based on the lighting, so it looks off at certain angles. But if you get close at look at the bumpers at the same angle, it's correct. Haters

Mine actually came with my first Turbo 2 it was an 87 S4 and the owner had some nice things done to it, and the seats were one of those things... Im just have some probs With the mounting brackets.. How did you get yours to work? Because mine dont just blolt up. But yes i also love the gray and the Mazda Speed emblem.

Thanks! Stock tii, minus a streetport, and exhaust, but I'm not too sure on the numbers. Feels like around 200. Just got done doing the powerslot rotors and hawk hps pads. Still need to put on my tie rod ends that have been sitting around since christmas time, haha. Have a few small things I'm waiting on, one being a Key!s Racing steering wheel, that I'm super stoked to get! But next is doing a roll cage, gutting out some extra stuff I don't need once the cage is in, getting the shine half bumper kit, and repainting the car. That should be it for a while.

I love the look of the shine half bumper kit.. I have some kind of rear half bumper on mine too... I dunno what kind it is tho but i like it... How many points you want on your roll cage i want like a nice 6 point... Im going to go check out that keys steering wheel, Im in love with my momo so ill keep that until the leather peels off lol.... You go a nice brake setup bro, where can i get all my suspension goodies from? Im want to build a street/drift/autocross car (i know its lots), i really want an all purpose fun car especially since its not my daily. I found my coilovers but i need help sourcing all the other footwork.

Yeah, I'm gonna go for this look here, but more wild paint scheme. It's gonna be the ****!!! And powdercoating my wheels; polished black lip, HKS Purple centers and gold screws. And painting my roll cage hks purple, and painting the car championship white with gold flake. I'm gonna love it when it's done! I don't care who hates it... it'll be my car. lol

And I'm not sure how many points I'll need. I'm just going to pass NASA specs and add on from there if I go further with my drifting career. It's going to be a drift only car, I wanted to do street/track/drift, but after realizing what I need to do to make it a great drift car, it's really going to take away from its cornering capabilities, haha.

Sounds like a member here (Grip) that thinks everybody is jealous of his FC.

But in all honesty, I like your fc.

Haha, I can read that. I thought you were gonna say blah blah tek. But here is the wheel I should be getting tomorrow. I hope it hooks up to my nrg quick release, if not I gotta buy this $15 hub, and will have to sell the quick release which I've now had for 3 weeks, haha.
