Nice wheels, but I would have went with a 35 on the rear.

 

And I found his long lost cousin....

 

what front is this? do tell . and what kind of fmic ?

nice ride buddy. you just inspired me

awsome !

 

It's the Mazdaspeed GTC front. It's the best non stock front for this car. It only looks good with the stock head lights and lenses but when done right looks amazing, good job Kensin. I have a JKL race version. I can't wait to put it on my car.

 

Hi Guys,

Here are some pics of my Rx7.

Regards

 

 

Nice, not feeling the wheels or spoiler but not bad. ADGT kit is the BEST KIT FOR THIS CAR PERIOD.

 

nice! love everything about the car except for wheels and wing

 

the RE car is great except the wheels and the wing and the CF fender vents. dont know why but makes the car look very weird to me.

 

Nice wheels. Nice Car
What suspension does it have?

 

Mazdaspeed coilovers

 

WRONG!!!!!!!!!Period.


i might be getting some MS coilovers too...

 

Any reason in particular??

Someone told me the front wheels should have a shorter wall than the rears. IE: 35 front 40 rear.

Right now i have 45 front, 40 rear though lol

 

A 40 in that size is a little tall in which a 35 will be a little more pleasing to the eye. Also, the overall diameter is closer with a 35:

Stock 225/50/16: 24.86
275/40/17: 25.66 (0.8 difference)
275/35/17: 24.58 (-0.28 difference)

 

Go search around for a 275/35-17 tire and tell me what you find

 

Here are a few pics of my current project. I'm fairly new to the Fast turbo scene though so I will need some help to get her ready for the track.
The only experience I have with turbo cars was an old Merkur XR4Ti that I used to beat the hell out of on back country roads.
This FD is a whole different world. 402HP @ 379lb-ft on the dyno and she's a handful on the street.
Alot of mods that aren't documented though so in order for me to put her on the track I need to spend some time figuring out if she was built right and if she's tuned well.
I will keep you posted on the progress, but I'm sure I will need alot of your help to make any.
Thanks in advance for this forum and the help you provide.

 

^Car looks really clean, congrats on the purchase.

my RHD FD

 

Some nice Hoosiers.

A 275/40/17 is still IMO too tall. Even a 265/40/17 would be better and available in some decent tires.

 

There are zero street tires available in a 275/35. I know because I've looked exhaustively. Kinda sucks. I agree it's too tall, I went with a 4.3 final drive years ago to offset the larger rolling diameter.

I've found that if you want a nice selection of wide sizes (beyond 255) you really have to look to 18 inch diameter nowadays.

 

share the same issue with rich... ive always contemplated 295s as there are some availability..
however.. this would require sacrificing the stock fender and camber..

 

Your car doesn't make enough power to justify 295s Jio lol

 

archusangellos- Nice car, that second picture makes the car look amazing!

 

What headlight kit do you have?

 

Wow those headlights look amazing!
