looking good :icon_tup: looking forward to more pix, and the finishing of that video! :beerchug:

that looks clean mac

damn looks clean. wish i had the time and enough knowledge to work on my engine.

MAC, your shit looks sick man. That's a sexy fc you got. :icon_tup:

What I usaly do is take out the spare plugs and get a flat head to push the apex seal to feel the spring.......

Coming together nicely! I have a feeling your car will have respectable pwr before mine gets pretty, lol.

Video is happening once I finish dropping in my motor and hit the track. Don't worry, I havent forgotten about the full length video.

Can you elaborate? Or just come by and show me when you pick up the other pair of wheels lol.

Haha we'll see we'll see, I do like the vmount setup you put together though. If I get anywhere near 220hp I'll be pretty happy especially since I'm not rebuilding internals or porting. I'm still debating between a high mounted fmic or vmic, I'll see how much I have left over after I have all the necessities.



Got a little done today, after I got out of class I went to go pick up a 2.5" downpipe from WhiteRice_7. After that I had a photoshoot with MazdaFitment.com, should hopefully be seeing the feature with them. Finally got home and did a little work on the turbo.

Of course it got fresh paint as well as the downpipe

lol you seem happy in this picture -.-

very happy haha

Thats the "fuck yah, downpipe and photoshoot are down the street from each other jump for joy" Saved me some gas.

nice aha. crazy how this was just taken and its already on the internet with 50+ likes

Maybe I just can't read or it wasnt included, but is this going to a 4 port or 6 port engine? And what exactly is port matching?

yea ill show you friday

4port TII Block
As for the port matching heres a pic to compare the s5 on the left and the s4 housing on the right.

Can I start a team nuisance in jacksonville? Are there stickers? T shirts?

create your own its not hard, fun actually.. start locally.
back in 04-07 I had started Limit Break! tho we kinda fell apart but im hoping to bring it back. http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._8096981_n.jpg

I was thinking about making an rx7 one Rotary Rival

Not sure if were ready for another team in another state haha. Only reason we have a Utah team is because we have relatives that are in the team. Bring it back hypertek! Looks like you had something going there.


Stupid s4 manifold flapper thing is getting welded tomorrow, thats all the updates I have for now lol.

Thanks for the explanation, and good article too. Love the pics! Being a grammar Nazi (well, sometimes) I did find some typos but overall cool to hear the history on the car and team :P

^^^ like the "214/45/17" tires? I wasn't gonna say anything if nobody else did....Cool pics nonetheless.

Mac/Hyper:
Lol, I was joking about the stickers and t-shirts (mainly because I didn't think you had any) lol

Haha yah I noticed a few as well but it's all good, no worries there.

Well I mean, we do have stickers haha. Currently working out a deal on shirts as well so yahhh. Waiting on the feature from StanceNation, going to be the same set of pictures but a different write up. :icon_tup:

mac. love the car! i wish i was able to do a build thread, it would be forever between updates :P

what bumper is that though, i love it!

such a sick car ive looked at these pics so many times now ... great inspiration

only thing i can say abt this build is wow always though s5s looked good but this build surpassed my perception. being stock looked sick and now its kitted n it still looks sick. great ride great build hope everything goes well when u get the turbo up and running

actually his car is a s4.5. started s4 then built to look s5

Feels like forever since I've updated. Heres a small one:

My motor mounts ripped when pulling the motor so I snagged these for cheap.

Then I got around to installing my Walbro that I had sitting around.
