its a long story. rx7store sent me the wrong elbow. so they sent some old injectors to plug the holes while I waited for the standard elbow. But they never sent it. Now I HATE rx7store.

i like the plain and simple silver color center instead of having it painted black.

too bad mazdaspeed didn't produce them in 18" size or else i would be all over them!

Hehe, too bad Keisuke from Initial D doesn't even use those rims any more. His FD looks totally different now.

Instead of MazdaSpeed stuff, it looks like it's covered with RE Amemiya parts (vented hood, aero mirrors, fixed headlights with an air intake on the right-hand side one, new body kit, GT Wing rear spoiler, rear diffuser, and new rims).

And if you want a realistic shot of the Takahashi Brother's cars in a garage, it's supposed to be in a big car port of a large house with Benz's parked next to them. And with the noses face-out too
