Thanks man!! I like the look but at first it didnt fit with my RZ calipers.. I just put some cheapo spacers on while I'm waiting for mine to come in.

Here are couple of more..

 

holy cow. what size/offsets?

 

love your car

 

First Time Attack of the season with the FD. . .





only got 2 runs in. . .having problems with sequentials. . .I see a single in the future!


btw. . .fastest car of the day was another FD . . .beat out a 2010 GT-R

 

I hope you reported your car to the police Project D1, it seems someone stole your wing!



Car on track and no wing = fail, and i say that in the nicest possible way honestly.

 

meh, white and wingless = win imo. . .

3 fastest cars had no wings

 

Win in what way? Certainly not for handling and downforce my friend.

Have a watch of this vid where they test the differences between no wing, series 8 wing and a gt wing.

even at lowish speeds the series 8 wing provided a much better handling experience due to the downforce it created, then the gt wing was even better again. You can see how floaty the rear gets with no wing too.

Note the series 8 wing was set to it's flat neutral position and the numbers from the vid show the speeds went up into the corners:

Wingless 102 km 0.91g lap 1'10.000

Stock Wing 112 km 1.07g lap 1'09.417

GT Wing 117 km 1.14g lap 1'08.771

 

Hey, new FD owner here! Had my car for about a month, so I thought I'd share some pics of my new car. Comments welcome!









and just for some non FD fun, my cousin's MR2 at the same track day

 

nice pictures!

The one with you driving in the rain looks awesome

 

I too love the rain photo Very different!

 

Nice vid! I'm not really going for best times though. . .sure you've seen my footworks setup. . .and oem brakes. . .lowering springs. . .everything else stock. . .haha

I'm a fan of the wingless look. . .i don't compete in anything serious like GT-Class races. . .daily drive it and take it out for fun. . .that's why i put "imo"

 

Fair enough, just something to think about if one day you do find yourself wanting to get to the track more often and go for better times

 

Messing around with photoshop and layers... no idea what I'm doing.

 

I want photoshop !!! but dont have money to buy it

 

Sick car! Photoshopping isn't bad either, but the dodge & burn is too strong (white outline around the trees in first pic), and the background blur in the 2nd pic is too abrupt and looks a little unnatural.

 

look like you found a good one. car looks super clean. love the moving shot at night.

 

pm me i can email you a copy for a small 15$ fee.

 

Thanks,

I had never messed with anything outside of microsoft office picture manager before last night. I finally decided to download Photoshop Elements and play around. Pretty cool program, way above my knowledge though.

 

I love white FD's

I've been here a long time (even before the crash of 01) and it has been interesting to see styles develop/come-and-go throught out the years. This latest trend of the oversize wheels reminds me of the lowrider style of the late 80's. Obviously it's not exactly the same but they share similar qualities; e.i. streched out tires and wheels sticking out past the body.

 

My fronts are stretched out because otherwise, it would tear up my fender liner.. Otherwise, I prefer not to stretch. My rears, I'm running 295/30s and 255/35s front on 10inch wide.

 

Another try,

 

was that at the solo sprint event this past wknd?

 

Viking,
Thats a good start! I can see some potential

Here is a tip for next time:

Instead of walking around the car taking shots, move the car so that the background compliments it.

For example: the shots of your car from the front look cool with the industrial type background, but then the shots of your car from behind you can see a neighborhood, etc. You took the time to find a nice location and bring your car there... make the most out of it

 

Thanks, I'll take your advice next weekend.

 

i love white
