^^nice flamage
where you breaking? First gear and completely let off to get that flame? or is your car that low up front?

 

Good Call^
I think it was 2nd gear......Did a hard pull and let off..
it is a little low up front compared to the rear

 

wtf? i thought dolphins spit water..... not errrr, flames??

 

This is the only good quality picture i have of my FD before i went widebody.
I miss having the stock look.
BTW the SSR GT3 are for sale

 

^looks 10x better imo.

-Austin

 

+2

 

I love your widebody though. Stock look is great and all but it also makes it look like everyone elses 7s. You gotta remember that you have one of the most unique 7s out there. Your 7 is the only one ive seen with that wide body

 

^ Thanks, thats the biggest reason why i like my FD so much because there isn't another one like it.

 

Dennis, your re-amemiya exhaust looks great!

 

Pics from today. And yes, I know....my R1 lip is absent...awaiting for the 99 bumper and wheels/tires.









...perhaps my favorite upgrade yet: new/restored interior with NO scratches!

 

^^^ **** yeah!!!
Would you redo my plastics? I'll pay ya! PM me.

 

Those stock base steering wheels are f'ugly! Love the new interior!

 

A couple pics from a little gathering that happens most every Saturday night at a store parking lot in Okinawa, Japan.

 

oh my goodnes...FDZero, your FD is NICE! I really like how your engine bay look, very clean and tidy! I and also in love with your interior! It's beautiful! Very clean too!

Great job dude!

 

FD Zero,

Love your v-mount setup, especially since you were able to keep you AC. Do you mind giving out the specs of the intercooler?

 

FDZero, Spirit R interior looks amazing! Great job. Sent you a PM with a few questions.

Great job on the car, can tell you put a lot of time and effort into it.

 

^ Hi man. Thanks. The plastics was actually quite simple process. Sanded down (thoroughly) and then coated. Then, requested for an professional auto/restoration shop to coat a couple times of paint...however, wished I had requested for couple more coats but the results were still great. Since I never never felt or seen an actual Spirit R interior before(...would be so lucky!), I had to take guess at the actual tactile "feel" and "dark gunmetal" color. At the time, I've researched a lot of photos of authentic Spirit R interior...I noticed the authentic plastic interior would sometimes be dark, bright, etc depending the time of day taken...it's not very consistent (oddly) so I tried to pick a neutral color too and results were pretty close!

^ The stock steering wheel, though not bad, and in my opinion, doesn't fit the design of the car...it's too "boxy" for such a curvy interior and exterior of the FD body lines.

^ Thank you, Sato. I really like the new interior now. I used to avoid taking interior photos during photoshoots but now, I take a lot of it. LoL. I will have to take more interior photos soon after the next wash, wax, cleaning inside/out. Yah, I recently had my entire motor + toys done at IRP (they did an EXCELLENT job...see my thread in sig. below) so I had a chance for them to clean and degrease engine bay and then add the new toys.

No problem. The V-Mount is actually the new design from RotaryExtreme.com (Ben, the new owner). The previous design had box end tanks whereas the new ones have curved. However, I was one of the first 3-4 adopters of this latest design. I believe Ben went back and modified the newer kits. I would PM him or check their website or for full specs: http://www.rotaryextreme.com/monsterdragvm.html . It was this or the GReddy VMount from RHDJapan.com at the time...wanted a huge VMount.

Thanks, Mrs. Yah, I really wanted to interior to be anew again or at least remove the ol' plenty scratches it had previously. Checking PM now...
