Looks beautiful in the front and mean in the back. I love it, nice job!

 

has that center piece in the interior been refinished or is it custom?

 

Thanks BigBoosting.

It's a must to leave the sunroof open!
It's like putting in your hands in the poket when you try to look cool...haha

 

Center piece? You mean my CF dash kit?

 

very nice~~ keep it clean and happy~~~~~ that all ya gotta do~~~

 

yup .. good job .. love the stock 99 front end .. those real 99 tail lights as well? if so kudos

 

Thank for nice comments!

*No, that's DIY a spray painted 99spec wanna be tail lights.

 

I was considering going with the same suspension set-up, as I already have Tokico 5 ways. What is the drop rate for the springs, I believe it's an 1 inch all around but I could be wrong.

Thanks in advance and very nice car, the MB paint looks excellent on your FD.

 

I dont know how much it dropped but I have no problem with fender rubbing with this set up. It seems to me that it dropped alot more than 1in. I have less than one finger gap between the fender and tires.


thanks for your comment

 

car is gorgeous... just needs rims. i need to get one of those Rx-8 shift ***** they r sexy

 

and get in on the floormat groupbuy!

 

Thanks my carpets are still good. Plus I've heard that those are thinner.

 

Looks fine to me. Unless it lasts for longer than 2-3 minutes or smells sweet I wouldn't worry.

Oh, and sweet car! Yours is the first I have seen with stock wheels and the '99 spec front and wing. Looks a lot better than I predicted.

 

Is that 99 spec spoiler?

 

where'd you buy your dash kit from?

 

i am so jealous! it looks real good, as for the smoke it looks normal to me.

 

damn nice! i wish i could afford the 99 front end, it's clean and sleak

 

Wow, very beautiful FD. Must be the first MB '99 spec I've seen. You make me want to go '99 spec even more now.

off topic: Long time no see NeedFD!

 

yeah, it's making mine look bad needfd *orders* the 99 front end and wing

off topic: Rx-187 yeah, long time, how've you been?

 

Nice FD, I always liked that coler.

 

Thanks guys for the nice comments I should have washed my car and take some pic, its little dusty...




Jolie7: Thats the VIS Replica with CF center deck.

poorboyracing: CF Dash kit came with it when I bought the car.

 

none of you think that exhaust smoke is coolant?

 

why? does it smell sweet?

 

I've never understood the "sweet smell" but it does stink...
The mazda reaman motor i have now has 5000miles and it smokes like how my old motor with shot o-ring did. It starts to smoke after 1-2min of morning start, and it continues to smoke for 5-10 min.
It threw up some coolant from the resvr tank couple times after driving on hot days as well on this mazda reman. I'm waiting for another mazda reman to come in so that I can replace with this one under warranty, but I'm just wondering if it is really the case.

 

Having gone through 2 engines with bad coolant seals, I can almost gaurantee that is a shot coolant seal. No way in hell that is condensation.

ONLY other time I smoked that bad was with a shot stock turbo. Secondary turbo seal went out and smoked up the whole block.

Car looks nice with the 99 specs.
