FC like initial D?

Ok, so a couple of days ago I wanted to check out what was so nice about Initial D. I got a couple of the books and shows, and as I watched I saw the FC that was on there and it looked amazing. Does anyone know how to get the FC to look like that?

Like what body kit did he use, etc?

I know for a fact that Ry's car is actually both series 4 and series 5 parts mixed together. I think he has s4 tails but an s5 gauge cluster or something. It would be difficult to recreate.

I know for sure he has s5 tails, but I want to know what lip and side skirts he's got and does he have a different rear bumper?

I believe if you go to the site, it will show you what parts are on the car. In the Initial D arcade game as you race you gather points and you get parts. It has a list of parts you get as you progress. Let me try and find it.

get your flamesuit on bro. as for the car, well first you have to find the rs watanabes and those wheels are expensive, second the lip spoiler it has i don't know what brand it is but corksport sells one just alike. i think the spoiler it has is the re amemiya wangan spoiler if im correct and the mirrors are amemiya also, i think, and that's about it for the outside.ohhhh and i think he has stock S5 sideskirts. here's a pic.

Doesn't it have a FEED lip or some jazz? It's a stock S5 with a bunch of stickes and some fancy wheels. Also, it's the most generic looking S5 you'd ever imagine.

It's an Infini III, FEED lip, RE-A mirrors, RS Watanabe wheels.

It's nothing special.

I think that most of the parts that Ryosuke used on his FC are mazdaspeed parts, S5 tail lights and all that good junk, i dont think he uses mixed parts. You know what you should do, go to the Arcade, buy ryosuke's fc and then play through the game and see what upgrades it gets. Its a fruity way of finding out but its a surefire way to learn.

Thats the most correct answer I've read so far. I only have to add in some parts of the series he has a mazdaspeed rear wing (which is nearly identical to a normal series 5 wing), and a standard one piece series 5 front lip.

Remember it is a Jap spec Series 5 Infini III Rx7. An Infini III was the best series 5 you could get in Japan, if you look at pics of the model above and you'll see an infinity symbol on the rear of it. If you don't know who Infini were and why an Infini Rx7 is so special, go search in google for Infini Rx7 and read about them.

Anyway it's the driver that makes it special, not the **** hanging off it

This question would be better placed on the Initial D forums.

GS GT if you buy a white FC and slap a "Red Suns" decal on it, I will smack you upside the head when I see you at the Friday night meet.

In Battle Stage, it looked more like a Mazdaspeed lip and wing, Watanabe wheels, and yeah, that was about it.

Pretty simple to replicate.

Call Corksport for their type MS lip
Wing might be a bit hard, though I have to take a closer look, it could be a stock wing
Wheels, call your local JDM Wheels importer.

You could make your own infini performance wise

Engine/turbo: find a Infini turbo and manifold
Diff: Buy an aftermarket 4.3 final drive plus a FD torsen diff
Interior: Buy random infini pieces, seats are key
Wheels: Get some JDM Infini wheels

That's pretty much 90% of the way there!

And boom, you have 12 more horses and a good feeling inside.
