I remember seeing your FD years ago, I believe in Houston. You're a real nice guy, and the FD looks very very nice Tony, congrats!

P.S. I also remember you warned us about cops on the highway, I should have listened....both my friend Alan and I got pulled over and ticketed for speeding on the way back to Fort Hood, lol.....

FD Pics

This is my 93 FD. When I bought it three years ago it had a blown engine, bad turbos, and every body panel had some damage. It took me about a year to rebuild it but it was definitely well worth it. The color I used was that for the Mazda 6 copper.

Very nice.

What brand side skirts are those, kinda like C-west, but I think they are different.

Heavily modded yet one of the cleanest cars I've seen. Very nice.

Curious...what did you use around the intake pipes? Is it painted header-wrap or something else. I've been looking for something to suggest to a friend on his single-turbo and that looks good.

Looks good. Do you have HID's. The box to the left of your plumbing coming off your turbo...

Thanks for the compliments. It took alot of time a patience to build her, and it takes alot of time and patience to maintain her. Its been alot of fun. I've enjoyed every single knuckle busting moment working on her. The side skirts are Ings which came from Chuck at Rotary Extreme (thanks Chuck!). I used 2" exhaust heat wrap on the intercooler pipes which I then painted with the black DEI heat wrap paint. In 97F heat on the highway my intake temps are at about 40-41C not bad. Intake temps would be about 4C higher without the wrap, every bit helps. I think the $30 I spent for that mod was well worth it. And Yes I do have HIDs they 9000K. Its literally a night and day difference with the East Bear light kit and the HIDs. I love it! Thanks again!

^I thought about wrapping the intercooler piping too, thought I was the first to think of it, HAHA. Imagine that. Someone told me to watch out for corrosion after a while though. How long have you had it wrapped? I'll probably still do it. That is one crazy engine bay though, DAMN nice. Good job!

Professional Pics of the 7

A friend of mine took some pics with his uber expensive camera. I think they turned out pretty good.
