My new 93 FD!!

Here are some pictures of my new FD. Have changed a lot outside the car since i bought it. Still some to come inside (paint) and engine parts....

Plans (some already innstalled): Uppgradet ECU and fuel pump, Greddy IC, filters, pully kit, boostcontroller, turbotimer, 5Ziegen exhaust, Trust Brake kit, Tein coilovers, Sparco seats, Defi instruments and 18" Nissan R34 GTR wheels.. probably more, but dont remember now...

Pictures with the new paint (like the carbon and white look






The paint is all House of Color, white base with light blue and green flake. Its hard to see on the pictures..

you know what, those tail lights don't look that bad. Usually stuff like that looks rice on a lot of cars but it looks at home on the FD for some reason...where'd you get them? Also are the GTR wheels a direct fit? same bolt pattern?

The wheels are a direct fit Not many of them though...
There are already flake and flames on the first pictures. But its only fine flake, its actually very nice to look at. The flames are almost invisible, they are white, with no flake...
I don´t know what make the hood are. When I bought the car, someone had painted the carbon red. Had to remove everything and cover with clear coat.

The engine is still almost original... Waiting on parts from Japan...

I like these taillights... Nice to have something that not everyone has


Here you can see the flake, but needs to be seen in real life..

I am a hardcore fan of stock look,but considering the fact that you already have some bodykit work to your car,the tail lights are ok to me.

Nice car.
I like the tail lights - they are different for sure.
I especially like the de-badged look.
How are the Sparco's mounted?

The passanger seat is mounted or welded on to the original one... The driver seat is mounted on a Recaro frame, made for FD... Came out really good, and the seats are still adjustable...
