thanks for the responses guys.

all the aero parts are from feed japan, and if you purchase the front from them, the combo lights + covers come with it

i'm on tein HA coilovers, and my car is actually really low. the only reason it would seem otherwise is because the shots were taken utilizing a dvd player box as a tripod. i only have maybe 2.5 inches of clearance. it might not look too low because i'm riding on 17's, and i should be picking up advan RS's in 18's pretty soon, which would fill in the wide front and rear gap pretty well.

i also have a set of authentic RE-A sleeks that are going in, once my friend figures out how to fabricate a fiberglass enclosing for the HID projectors.

I haven't talked to him for a while, tell him I said what's up and my car is running like a champ!

Here's a couple of pics I took a few hours after I dyno tuned my car...

FM-10.. I don't know.. I have to see it on the car.. but as of now, I kind of like the Volk RE30. Like Kenny's car (Zonblitz).
Thanks bro.... you know what man, this FD definitely has been the most fun, impactful
build I've had.... I have it up for bids, but not desperate to sell since the article
did spell out my life story on high chances of keeping this ride!

OMG this baby is stupid fast! Pics...

Just picked up my R1 today. Checked the compression--good. Turbo spins very smoothly and has less lag than the BNR stage 2 that I had on my FC.

Interior is a little ratty. I need to change out the passenger side interior door handle and the radio surround as well as dye the seats.

This baby is stupid fast! I can't even perform any decent timing tests as at full throttle I can't keep it straight in the first three gears.

I took it down one of my favorite roads to terrorize in my well modded Miata which I can usually drive at 80-100% throttle. All I say is I scared the crap out of myself.

Here are some pics I took with my phone.

I don't think it is a 99 spec wing. It is big and a cop magnet. I really don't care for it, but It should probably help on the track.

Thanks! I know this is not the "for sale" section, but the house and Miata are for sale.

Current survival plan is:

a.) Don't wrap any car around a tree or park it in a ditch or spin out on a public road (like I did the Miata)
b.) Don't break anything expensive like an engine or a turbo
c.) Don't get arrested for excessive speed

Just look at your commander for your PFC, all your questions about injectors and a lot of other things can be answered there.

The r1 strut bar is blocking my view of beneath the UIM so I cant tell if you have a custom fuel rail or not.

You just need a few other body parts to take the focus off of the wing.....
