I doubt any FD owner wants to go 4 lug.

Maybe, just maybe it's because you don't know jack **** about the car?

Well, that right there can lead to problems.

Recommend alum ast, downpipe, silicone zip tied vacuum hoses. These cars are 13 yr old high performance machines, I'm not really sure what you sour grapes guys expect. You want a brand new car that performs like the FD? Go drop $80,000 on a 911 Porsche.
