Cool wheels. Paint looks great, is it original?
So, you're running the PFS purple on top of a JDM flashed ECU? Interesting/ballsy. How do you tune? Do you have wideband?

Thanks,
The car bas been partially repainted.
Yes, the flashed ECU removes all the internal factory limiters, bringing Some interresting base tuning, while the PFS allows fine adjustments for final tune, as well as 3 tuning roms, witch is quite practical.
As you can see, I effectively installed a wideband in the new midpipe.

Cool. See that now. If it works and you like it, then that's that.
Some people swear by the purple, and a lot of people call it the purple motor eater, but it was a bit before my time. I wonder if using the stock ecu underneath created some issues you're avoiding like the limits, cuts, etc.

Yes, Pfs purple only does what tuner asks it to do. It's a bit old flavored compared to modern standalones, but for my needs it's perfect.

I must confess I fell in love with the rotary.

For those who are interrested, my S13.

I too love the rotary, but came from a RB25 S13. I have to admit, I love the RB sounds way better than the rotary. I have not have much luck with my 13B builds and have thought about going RB in the FD.

I must admit that an RB26 screaming par 8000RPM is one of the best engine sound ever.


I was asked for a pic of the underside of the radiator ducting. It was done quickly. I will try to do better next tome

Broke a rear omp line while mounting 850cc primaries.
I décided to repair with heatproof téflon tube instead of buying genuine Mazda one.

I wish there were more info on this. I assume this person had to run a dry sump to get the motor low enough to fit in the car. That and the sump on the stock oil pan is on the front if I remember correctly.
