Check out this very unique fd conversion like ive found... in my opinion its not the greatest looking car. It looks like one of those 4 seater z3 coupes in my opinion... but they did a very nice job though. Btw, I believe its a 4 seater, you can see in the rear picture what looks to be the back of a rear bench seat, if the extended rear cab is there for another reason and you know, please correct me. I do not know if this has been posted before, but check it out.

dudududamn, i cant believe somebody did that to their FD. Why waste so much money to make it so so ugly?

It is a VERY JDM thing to do - That style conversion hatches are available for a lot of small hatchbacks in Japan - adds a lot of luggage space

i think all they did was re make the rear hatch

I think thats the ugliest FD I've ever seen...

yah the got rid of the trunk/spare space and added a seat i guess.. maybe good for someone with a family that wanted to keep their fd, and be able to get use out of it

I LIKE IT... I dont care what you think. Go ahead take your shots. I'm always ready.

I need room for stuff and I know I am not the only one. ...anyone else like? ...anyone?

I dont think it would add that much weight either, even so it puts it on the rear wheels.

Not much extra drag either... nice design.

"JDM seats?" me... They work well for kids but if I had that I could probly mod it to be comfortable. I still LIKE IT. Step outside the box!

I don't know man, I kind of dig it. I wouldn't do it to my car, but the first picture looks pretty cool. What do you guys hate about it so much. It stands out IMO.

You guys will react to anything.

The hatch is a replacement aftermarket hatch in Japan ... it's a Wangan gate. It serves to stabilize the car at extremely high straightaway speeds, though on this car it doesn't appear to serve any purpose other than added room since it appears very stock.

The back seat you are talking about is a common option on FDs in Japan ... it goes in place of our storage bin structure and B/C pillar and isn't functional for holding anything more than one of those cube-shaped watermelons they grow over there.

I think it's strange that the legendary back seat dealer Jesse Lau didn't say all of this before me. Say hi to Sean Kirby for me when you see him, Jesse.

Oh and I have a dream that one day Americans will stop refering to the car as "FD3" and start using "FD3S" as it's supposed to be. It's not the plural form, the chasis code is "FD3S" ... "Eff-Dee-Three-Ess", not "Eff-Dee-Threes." I'm not an **** person, but good lord it's everywhere and I just don't get it.
