I didn't have to use spacers in the front. I actually lucked out with the flushness in the front. The front tires are 245/40/r17 and the rears are 255/40/r17 with 20mm spacers. I think the rims are 9" wide and about +32 offset I think lol. I did a roll and slight pull. Looks pretty good

Nice. A set of sideskirts would really complete the look!

1)If you 'quote' a message with pics in it, delete the pics you aren't talking about. Better yet, don't quote the pics at all, and link back to that specific post.
2) This thread is for non-technical car pics. Pics outlining a problem or details of a project are fine for their own threads.
3) If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it. If the person is specifically asking opinions, be respectful.


I have had this car for about four years, working hard to get it right.
Many of ur cars have been my inspiration, so think there should be a thread paying homage to those cars.

Talking Help me find this part

I went for a casual drift in the neighborhood one day when suddenly my steering wheel sounded like it cracked. I disassembled it and then saw that this plastic piece behind the steering whee was damaged. I have pictures and I know what it does but I do not know its name nor where to find this part online. I've searched just about everywhere I can and I'm hoping someone can find a solution. Your help is greatly appreciated.

For those of you asking for more pics of my dumptube setup, I'll cover it in my build thread soon---> https://www.rx7club.com/build-thread...build-1027698/ I'll take some pics so you can see where the pipe runs and how I made the heat shield. I get some pretty interesting looks from people to say the least.

I added some more bits from the motherland. Amemiya type I wangan spoiler to match the mirrors and reverse scoop, and jdm window visors to go with the jdm ftps and bubble sides. Love the japanese FC wangan style.

And I agree about the amemiya mirrors not being that bad. Mine are powered and I can see pretty good. Not the greatest, but totally worth it.

iiiiAlex, your car looks great with that amemiya type IV spoiler man. IMO that spoiler looks great with vented mirrors like yours but looks off with aero mirrors. I feel like mirrors and spoilers flow together. That spoiler sticks out a lot, so the mirrors should match. Mine is the opposite! Just something I noticed when looking through the japanese influence thread.

Demon, it's a damn shame that we didn't get any pics together for desertfest.

New wheel and tire setup. 17x9.5 with 275/35/17 all around. Car looks like a complete POS until I get it painted.

Thanks guys! I'm liking where the car is heading. Unfortunately, it's down for a while. AEM water/meth controller malfunctioned and flooded my motor. A new controller is $150 and aem wouldn't cover their old one being a POS, even though they know it's garbage. Anyone looking to go water/meth injection, I'd suggest going with literally anything else over AEM.
