Finally got some pics of my suspension and exhaust... 56K NO WAY!

So yeah, the suspension is made up of Tokico struts and B&G Progressive Rate springs.

Thank you dDuB!

You can also see the Brembo (real) cross-drilled and slotted rotors. Which I got free BTW.

The exhaust is the famed Apexi GT Spec exhaust.

Enjoy the pics!

Yeaaahh brotha'! Looks like a sweet ride. What suspension setup are you running?

Unek87, the S13 lip was a squeeze, but all in all was a pretty much perfect fit. Even some of the bolt/mounting holes lined up... Not bad for a 'homie-hookup'.

Oh yeah, about the suspension; it's a VERY nice setup for daily driving. It handles like it's on rails (although there is a bit of body-roll) but the 'progressive' springs truly work. It's very comfortable, even on pretty rough roads.

i'm currently experiencing the worst emotion known to modern man... rotor envy.

seriously though... that's nice work and very clean, you must have put some serious time into it.

a TII will likely be my next project

Mmm... rotor envy.

As a medical elite in the field of curing 'Rotary Enviousnessianism' (a terminal illness), my suggestion would be to buy a beautiful Turbo II. Like mine!

Anyways, too many hours have gone into my TII... As well as too much money, lol. Regardless, good choice on your next project car.

Well, the interior was originally blue. So instead of tearing it all out and replacing it with a full black interior, I've gone through and created the whole thing in a 'blue/black' theme. I decided to leave the original interior handle because it looks stock in relation to the rest of the interior.

Black carpeting, door-cards, center console/drivers console, black dash trim, vents, glove-box etc. as well as black plastic interior panels, black rub-guards with blue Mazda writing and other blue/black stuff like black shift-boot with blue stitching and black/blue Sparco shift **** etc. Oh yeah, and all of the 'orange' glowing stuff and heater console have been blacked out.

I dunno, I'm trying to get some good pics of the interior, but I didn't have enough time before it got dark.
