New pix

So I got my FD about four months ago, worked my *** off, put all my cash into it, and now im here posting some pix. When I first posted pix after I got the car everyone suggested I get a lip and drop the car. So I got stock lip from mazda and some rsr race springs + gab super r shox. Then I took it a step further and threw on some Desmond Regamaster Evo's which I had powdercoated in flat black (thx to batman). I got a lot more plans for the car but I thought it would be cool to see what you guys think again.

Its actually an awsome combo and I really like it. Its not too stiff to the point where its no fun for street (to me at least) and at the same time its stiffer than most other shox/spring combos out there.

I was going to go with a set of Zeal B2's but in the end went with this to save money for other things. Im happy with the route I took but if I had more money I would have went with the Zeals.

I got the springs from auto rnd when they were on sale for $200 and I got the shocks from osumo3 for $450. Both were local pick up as well.

AWESOME bud. Your car looks great with the new wheels on there. Stop by the shop so we can see it in person. We can take a pic with our two FD’s together
