Car is nice but it could use some help in the styling department.

I think the wheels look hyper black, not chrome.

Ummm.. actually a wing like that on are cars actually hurts the airo dynamics due to are hatch back.

Not the biggest fan of the body kit either, but cool engine...

looks fine to me. Prolly runs fine too. I just don't see what the big deal is. I mean, sure, it has a 13B-REW ( i can't tell the difference by looking at it btw) and it prolly hauls *** but I don't see how it's a cost-effective swap (taking the time and fabrication it probably took to make into consideration). I don't mean to be a party pooper but I just don't see what's cool or EXTRAordinary besides the fact that someone FINISHED a 13B-REW swap into an FC, kitted and painted it.

You could have built a nice 13B-T for the same amount of $$ (or perhaps even less) and still have a car that drifts around the track all day long.

BATMAN's wing was just as big as this FC's but not as ugly. Both he and the few that have ridden in his car can tell you it's a fully functional wing. Useless on the street, but funtional.

most of you seem to have forgotten the good ol' "Fuction over form" saying. Just cuz it ain't purdy doesn't mean it's totally uselesss.

Nothing TT about that piece of crap. My favorite part is that it has so much body kit on it they have to cut out the rear skirt to make room for the non functional rear diffuser. First time for that.

Bahahahahahaha thats a good one Drivarotor.... sorry only good wings are lips that came with the sport models and the wings that came with the GTu and the GLX were okay but not as efferent as that lip. when you have a hatch the wind follows the path of the car. because there isn't a trunk on are cars and the roof doesn't just drop off. Only time a wing like that would be good is for a car with out a slanted rear window and with a fair good size trunk lid. all about airo dynamics. whats the point of having a wing that doesn't flow with the dynamics of your car. plus I believe that the drift king made fun of a FC3s with a wing like that during a drifting event.

I dont like the front imo.

And what, the mounts are $280 to put an FD engine in an FC?

It's a stronger engine, why not use it instead. Though a 13b-re would be cheaper.
