These are pictures of my current FC3S. It needs some work.
Currently in the process of restoring the body as you may be able to tell by the preped areas with grey primer. In the spring I plan to buy 2 quarts of por-15 for rust treating then I will paint it at work where I have access to a full prep and body work area where we plan to paint it a deep metalic blue.

This winter I will be rebuilding the transmission. it has 135,456 on it.

Only problem I really have with the engine is its been flooding lately which I've heard could be a blown apex seal but a tune up reduced its flooding from 3 times a month to about once a month so I dunno. I'm gonna go with rotary resurection on that.

Let me know what you think of it!

yeah I didn't know this would happen either so I had to get another pair that actually turns the hole face green or blue, that might be what you need to do.

I can see them well enough to drive. Heh I guess its one of those things you get used to after a while.

Nice.. that's a 86 sport right? Nice color Artic silver is one of those colors that people look at in pictures and go.. ehhh.. but then they see it in person all waxed up and go wow.

I'd stick with the stock gauges myself. Factory it's almost a reverse orange indiglo at night



Give love to the orange!

The blue wipers might go nice with the blue streak on my GXL. (I didn't do that to the car, it was on there when I bought it.)

once my car is blue I think that they'll go a lot better but unfortunatly I have to drive it this winter.... the beater took a dump and I can't afford a new one. I figure why paint it untill spring? I should have myself a mx-5 for a beater by then

To be compleatly honisty with you I'm not sure what model it is. Its weird, I have the 15 rims and most of the sports options but some of the GXL and I was told when I bought it it had the LSD but I'm not sure how te tell because my car doesn't fit any of the "what version of my car do I have?"

jsotelo

looks like a sport to me. One way to check the LSD is look under the car on the pumpkin.. most of the time the LSD will have a metal tag on there that says LSD on it.

Nice little S4 ya got there. There is a thread posted about the reverse indiglo lighting problem- check the main page or do a search for "reverse lighting solution".

I think the guy did it with some blue led's he got off ebay as well as painting his needles.
