Beautiful. I've always thought that touring owners should put the sunroofs down when they take pictures. It disrupts the flow of the car when its up in my opinion.

Different cars, and I don't think the yellow one is his. But his sure does look beautiful. No kits are needed.

yea, i have 2 of them. there was once a point that i had 3 of them but i love this one. this is mine and i also agree with no kit needed.

palumbo1337: i have done the 99 spec conversion on this car too. also, i had a 95 fd to drive around until i got this fixed. it is currently at rotarypower getting a new engine with new rotor housings, new RA "unbreakable" seals, and a streetport.

i am throwing a party when i get it back!! (2-4 weeks if parts arrive in time!!

Get the lip from Jt-Imports. It's $165 and thats including shipping. Only takes 2 weeks tops to have it shipped from Japan as well.


The "other store" that sells it is $165 plus $15 shipping and who knows when you will get it.


You do the math



Tell me when you get your can back and running and we'll meet up in Westwood again.

Yea, only in Cali. I remember that night. I was driving on the 101 out to the cafe and there was fire on the hill in the distance. Crazy ****. Looked like armageddon was coming or something.

Nice pics. You might have wanted to put the antenna down so it didn't look like an R/C 7, but nice pics anyways.

Black rims on a dark car just don't look right IMO, but chrome would look awful. Keep em stock.
