Very nice CYM! Love the rolling shots. Anyone else agree that the best angle to take pics of the FD are those from just outside the driver side rear and passenger side rear (rolling or still)? For some reason that angle just shows all the sexiness these cars have to offer.

Thanks Hus and everyone else for contributing pics. I really like the B&W pic of the Mazdaspeed 10 AE wing. One of my favorites, but not sure how it would look in CYM. It's definitely badass in Silver and White (the two colors that I've seen). Keep 'em rollin (I mean coming). More shots anyone? We should have called this thread "Rolling FDs."

1/100s - 1/250s for panning works for me. Whatever gives you the maximum blur on the wheels and background without losing sharpness of the car. It's much easier to use lower shutter speeds if you're riding alongside of them. If your camera can't be controlled by shutter speed, good luck.

HOw is the ride on the tein Flex? I have the GC coil over kit with Koni Yellow running 350 front and 285 rear springs but I'm not satisfied with it.

The GC are good for daily driving to where the teins arent really made to daily driving standards and would wear out a lot quicker.. Friend had them and they needed a lot of repairing after a year to where i had GC and tokico's on my gst and not a problem yet.. Are the koni's adj.?

there is something about these cars that just makes your blood boil...I can't explain it, but it's always been there...nothing on the road grabs my attention like an FD, with the possible exception of a Copperhead Viper

Sweet! I like that. The FD looks really threatening from the sideview mirror.
