Not yet... FMIC is just there to cover up the big hole on the bumper. Going to wait till this NA dies then swap FD engine with 5 speed on it.

Those 18's and overly stretched rubber make it look like a silly Characiture of a RX-7.. ( over the top in a silly way. ).

The side skirts are also not quite right, proportionally they are too bottom heavy, throws the 'balance' of the car off.

That Spirit R badge & fake Japanese lic plate are overly pretentious, too much supa-kun, not enough tuning for me... but at least the car is clean, paint looks good and the work is well done, kudos on that.

so, he has a good NA motor and decides to do all aesthetics first and will wait till his motor dies and then go turbo but it's not good enough for YOU?????




I want to see YOUR car please.

Looks good!!! You should consider swapping the square headlight out for two projector style round ones. Just a thought.

OK, so both guys have very nice FCs. I think there is something to be said for both ways of rebuilding your car... Looks first and then performance or performance first and then looks are both viable depending on who you are and what you want. I think there is some common since in waiting until your n/a ***** the bed before proceeding. I have over 210,000 miles on my n/a and it still runs great. I think it would be a shame to remove it before I see what its ultimate lifespan is.

Yes, my NA motor is still running. But I trade the FC vert with a friend for a clean stock FD. He just love how my FC look. So another new project for me on the FD. Even tho I have not finish my RE supre Greddy FD.

Wow. This idea came up in another thread a couple days ago, and I thought it would be ugly, but it actually looks damn good .
