Paint it

That's one nice looking ride. I would love an FD like that if I could afford it and was willing to put up with a degree of unreliability.

I would paint the hood. I find it makes it look like somebody added a widebody kit in a lazy fashion without painting the hood to save some money.

But that's just an opinion.

Car looks awesome with the hood as-is. I don't usually like wings, but yours fits really well. In my opinion the ONLY thing that could make your car look better would be if that sunroof was smoked glass instead of solid white.

AWESOME ride man. I haven't seen you around, but if I do, I'll honk

You'd better get your *** to the May meet... and all the other Ottawa meets for that matter!

Shouldn't you have the lense covers if it were genuine Mazdaspeed?

Good to see a nice FD like that in Ottawa.
Got a dyno sheet for the 480 HP, and a timeslip for the 11.6 @ 122 on your Cardomain site?

Who said anything about it being 480HP??

And yes, Thomas's FD is stock. Just for those 2 air intakes... otherwise, it's stock...

Well, that's interesting..... He's got a few shots of a single turbo and a front mount... and yet, when we see pics of the car, you can't really tell from the front if it's got the intercooler installed.... Hmmm...

Oh well, I'm just happy to see it's still on the road... after all that poor thing has gone through... lol

Not trying to hate

Just want to see claims like that backed up, since if they are real, those are some substantial numbers worth giving credit for

I have to admit, for a car that has seen winters, albeit mild southern Ontario ones, it looks really great...

I was thinking about a big single turbo the other day (not that I could afford one :P) and then got stuck in traffic downtown in the market...it changed my mind really fast. More than 350 or so in this car would suck to drive in town...I guess that's what a boost controller is for lol ...but I was just thinking how frustrating it was to drive in traffic as it is :S
