First Post!
Well I have been reading the forums for about 4 months now. Took it upon myself to register a while back but havn't had anything to say yet.
So I thought I would just drop in say hello and introduce myself.
My name is Simon (yeah tough name to grow up with), I'm in the army, 82nd Airborne Division out of Fort Bragg, NC. I'm currently stuck in Iraq, but looking forward to coming home soon, they won't tell me when but they say soon.
My car is a 93 , had her for a little while now. Current mods are;
Greddy T-78 Single Turbo
Greddy Type R Blow-Off Valve
Apexi PowerFC -Datalogit System
Blitz Front-Mount Intercooler
Koyo Radiator
850cc Primaries, 1600cc Secondaries
MazdaSpeed Short-Shift Kit
Nippondenso Oversize Fuel Pumps
Illumina struts (want to switch to new coilovers but can't decide on brand)
Toyo Front Anti-Sway Bar
KAAZ LSD
4.40 Rear-end Gears
Greddy PowerExtreme Exhaust
Nitrous Express Nitrous System
Race Port w/ 3mm Apex seals
I'm looking to redo the interior but prices for new parts are expensive and can't decide whether I want to stay oem looking or go all out crazy custom. Also want to go 99 spec front but also working on a budget.
Sorry I will post some pics soon, i'm waiting on an email from a friend who is going to take some!

Welcome. We have many members from the military on this board. My hats off to you for doing what you're doing.
Crazy custom will probably get expensive. You can find good interior parts over time if you are patient. There are some guys who have also recovered or repainted their interior parts so that is an option also.
Good luck.
