Mazdan's FC

I bought this car in 2007. Here were the 2 pictures from the craigslist ad:


Irresistible.

It didn't need to be good because I only needed to drive it for a couple of months while I redid the turbo setup on my B2200.

Here are some pics circa 2009.
For reference, this was with vert wheels with 25mm front / 30mm rear spacers. 225/50-15s. No fender rolling, unknown camber. There was some rubbing up front.









It's no longer my daily driver. Now it mostly sits around waiting for me to do bodywork, and collect parts for the turbo swap.

Car looks great!! Shame you don't drive it more. Do you drive the B2200 quite a bit?

I sold the b2200 years ago. It was fun but not as fun as the RX-7.

I agree I definitely want to drive it more. Just need to buckle down and get the bodywork done.

i like it. this may sound strange, but i think this is the first FC that i've seen made the Convertible wheels look good on one.

what the suspension setup?

I was just running some used coilovers back then, I think they were old Kei Office.
Plus a camber link and some bushings.

IMO the coilovers and spacers are what really set the wheels off.
