thanks for giving a bit more info. But i did say ~$2500 shipped which was the best i could remember from the thread. Iguess it was closer to $2400

 

I don't think anyone was trying to misinform Dave, I think people just wanted to have some fun guesstimating what Juiceh's car cost, but all told that adds about 1000-1500 more to my guess heheh.

 

id say that if you added about 45% to that estimate, you would still be short of reality. The nickel and dime items are probably close to 10K. The new door and various other seals from mazda alone are over 900.

 

by the way, SHOTTY for the st louis trip if you dont already have a passenger.

 

any new updates?

 

ya really, hows the upholstry shop doin?

 

Haven't been to the shop since last week. Probably won't be back over there till next week.

We ran into an issue with the seats fitting with the roll bar... Rather than cutup & take apart the seats to make them fit I'm gonna have to go another route. I'm looking for some Mazdaspeed sport seats or RE-Amemiya FC3S seats(basically recovered mazdaspeed seats). I thought I had a set of Mazdaspeed seats being held for me until I could verify the Cobra seats would work but that fell through. So I'm kinda *** out on that one. Probably have to pull the stock seats out of another vert for the time being since I threw the seats out that were in the car...

Anyone selling Mazdaspeed sport seats or Re-Amemiya seats please let me know...

The top fabric was selected and ordered. They are probably working on making the top right now. The top material is going to be made from AS5 "singed" cloth, same type of stuff porsche uses. The headliner will be made from a nice felt-like material.


Anyone want to buy my set of cobra seats with FC rails. They will fit in any FC, just not with my roll bar.

If I can't locate the seats I need, I may chop out part of the roll bar and have to redo it. I really don't want to do that though. I'm really tired of taking steps backwards... I should have just gone with a custom setup..

 

Price for the Cobras ?

 

Has this build seriously taken over 2 years?

 

It's a road racing car, earl. This ****'s serious. Can't rush it.

 

PM'd


No. The car was done in July of 07. Then had a failure which prompted me to redo some stuff including the engine. Then my body kit finally arrived and I got all the extra body parts I needed so that I could have the body work done. Body work & paint began in February of this year and took 6+ months.


Its going to be a show\street\open track day car.

 

Wow this is a sweet build. That's some serious wheel and tire. The cars looks kinda silly without the real wheels under it yet. Are you looking to compete in any race events? Scca? Roadcorse? What are you doing for suspension? Power goals?

 

read the damn post above you...

If you would have read the thread, you would know most of this by now.

 

hi,

could you please pull your **** out of your cornhole?

i posted that RIGHT after he posted the above post on my blackberry so i couldnt just hit F5 and refresh the page. but thanks for pointing it out. if you would like ill go ahead and edit it so you dont get more but hurt

and as far as reading the whole thread i was reading the whole thread and didnt find what i was looking for. didnt see any specific info on if he was going to race it at all and in what and were he was going to race it.

 

this is a fauked up post....

 

well, maybe if your reading comprehension was above the first grade level you have found some answers.

And that's not my ****, that would be Juiceh's ****.

 

Haha you have found some answers? Atleast I have proper grammar...

 

Stupidity not allowed. Please GTFO.

Thank you and have a nice day.

 

JUICE UPDATES BRO UPDATES!!!!

Your thread is getting bashed, post some pics so there wont be no riots...lol

Alex

 

That's right!!! There's gonna be some riots if there are no new pictures soon!!

Let's make them drunken riots. I feel like drinking now that I saw that emoticon.

 

right back at you

 

At least we agree!

 

Would you two idiots shut the **** up and leave my **** out of this?!


I would but theres not much to report right now. Last time I was at the upholstery shop the car was covered up and they were working on a Rolls Royce. Had to wait for the materials for the top. Like I said I'll be heading over there next week. I'll get some pics up when theres something to post.

I did put my LED mirrors back together. I can't wait to install these on the car and see how they look. In the near future I'll start to work on my other LED mirror idea. Once I am able to install and wire these and the Tamon wing on the car I will take pics of them and post them. That stuff will get done as soon as the car is out of the upholstery shop.

 

But its so nice!!!

 

i have yet to see this **** of emense proprtions... but by the size of the rubber you have in your sig i can only imagine
