why havent you changed the led color of the PFC? blue would be easy to read and would match the defi gauges.

Damn it Jay. You car's gone through a big transformation since I saw it a couple of years ago.

Nice Work!

SO let me get this straight....
All the ricers were on one side of the lot and the REAL cars were on the other side of the lot?

That is a beautiful skyline. It's a damn shame ricers can simply go out to PepBoyz and Autozone and by themselves those GTR emblems.

It makes me wonder how many people thought the emblems on the GTR are fake...

That's the DEFi Link II controller... I had the DEFi Link I in the dash.. but the older style was vertical and the new one is horizontal.. so i have no place to put it just yet... maybe the roof liner??

thanks... my FD was off the road for about 2 years due to my wedding and my twin babies... but I've been saving parts here and there.. I've had it on the road for a couple of months now and starting to feel the pain of.. "what's that smell??".. "what's that noise??!!"

I have a whole lot to do still.. replace all my bushings, toe links, arms, etc..etc.. it just never ends.. lol

The show that was outside, had the typical honda, acura.. etc.. classes... I asked that my friend and I stay together... he was placed in the exotic class... I love driving together... I feel like I'm in Osaka or Tokyo.. even though it's just the Garden State Parkway.. LMAO..

- This is straight from Germany, I see the steering wheel is on the wrong side.
- So you imported this from Cali? ummm ya

RX-7

- That asian guy in the fast and the furious drove this
- OMG it's a TWIN TURBO RX-7... hell yeah.. TWIN TURBO (maybe I shouldn't go single )

wow, you and your friend both got some sad ricer comments there. some people are just way to uninformed about things and should either learn or be shot for their stupidity. once again, awesome looking FD man.

its cuz they are uninformed about cars and don't know what they come with stock. maybe as well they are in boost envy and want to see turbo's all the time.

Nice nice niiiiiice car, Very similar to what I was looking to do to my car, when I finally sell my damn honda and purchase an FD, with the exception of the PFC, I know a good AEM EMS tuner, and I wanted to mount an Alpine LCD DVD player in there, and build a custom computer with an RCA video out, and use the Alpine LCD screen as the computer monitor so I could tune through that, datalog etc. Nice stuff bro. Mind if I use one of the pics for my wallpaper?

hey Jay, i heard a rumor that your buddy had wrecked that skyline... is that true? it would be a damn shame if it were.

i saw your car at rotorfest and i was in love! it really is one of the cleanest FD's i've ever seen. i loved how when you and the GT-R rolled in, almost everyone at the show stopped what they were doing to watch you guys park lol

wow.. how news travels pretty far... yeah.. we where hanging out one night and on the way home, he decided to drift out of the parking lot... he came out sideways doing a awd drift but then was going to fast and was coming up to traffic at the light where cars where moving too slow... he had no choice but to dump it into the curb... if not he would of hit the cars ahead of him... I was going to faint when I watched what was happening... It looked worst then the actual damage... bend tie rod and cracked chin spoiler...

Since then the car has been fixed... new spoiler, rod... added custom Bride interior, system and a lot more coming... picked up a big sponsor that's been really helping him out...

Yeah, I remember the time at Rotorfest... I heard a bunch of people where like... wtf is the skyline doing here... it's not a rotary... sheesh.. I thought it was a good idea... some people have never seen a skyline before and thought it would of been great to add to the show... o well... some people are just one minded.. lots of people say they liked my FD.. funny how I didn't win anything...

Well that's in the past, I'm working on going to the Canada show next weekend... BF Goodrich is using my car and the skyline as their showcase cars... I just got my free GForce KD tires in the mail... so this is what it feels like to get free stuff from companies!!!
