That's a SWEET car!
Questions
- What kind of body kit and spoiler?
- What kind of engine mods does he have?
- Do you know his HP or 1/4mile ?

He might not respond for awhile, but I can answer a few questions.

He's got the Mazdaspeed wing, with the Bomex body kit and the stock side skirts.

Stock block with a full 60-1 turbo, Haltech, NPR front mount, and a few other goodies.

He is pushing close to 400 at the wheels I believe, and it should be good for low 11's.

He gave me a ride before his new turbo was tuned in with the haltech, and all i gotta say is wow...

Thats an absolutely amaaaazing fc.
Great looks and great performance (by the sounds of it)
The only thing I dont like is the yellow in the interior. All in all it's probably one of the most well rounded fc I have seen.

Thanks Jameson and thanks everyone else for the compliments. I have a list of mods that I will post when I get home from work this evening. Jameson was correct on everything. The car is pushing around 400rwhp as it has ran a best of 11.8@120mph with only a 1.85 60 ft. This is on pump gas and 15 psi. Once I finish tuning it for race gas and 18 psi it should run in the low 11's. On the yellow interior note. The seats have been changed since these photos were snapped with nice reclining all black race seats and black 3-inch harnesses. I will hopefully be getting a kickass hood and better sideskirts when I find ones that fit the rest of the car right.
Take Care,
Ben

Like I have said before, I love the exterior of the car, but too much yellow for my taste. But w/ a 11 second ET, who the hell cares how it looks?

What year is your car? I noticed on the Bomex website that the front end does not fit the 86-88's properly.

I love the Instrument colour. Silver would look awesome on mine. What type of paint did you use? Was It air brushed on? Or spray painted?

Thanks again everyone,
The car is a 1991 and yes I have tried to install one on a tenth ann. and it did not fit very well. The dash cluster is painted with automotive type paint after sanding and primering.

87GTR--I ran Mickey 26x8.5-15 ET Drags on the rear and Falken 205/50-15 radials on front. I will be switching to a 26x10.5-15 ET Street soon to allow me in more race classes. I plan on getting this thing into the tens hopefully on a stock motor. The car usually pulls 1.6-1.65 60 fts. but ran 1.85 60 fts at the track because it was so hot it actually made the tires slimy and they wouldn't stick for ****. Hence the high trap speeds and only 11.8 time. I would like to take a look at your map sometime if you don't mind sending it to me.

Ben

P.S. Yes I did beat the Supra as that run was for 1st place at our last import event.

From you experience do you think that you could get it to fit on an S4. If so how hard do you think it would be to make a clean install on an S4??
