Do you put on two different styles of rims on each side of the car to display them at car shows? I am assuming this car will be mainly for shows, and not really street driven, but if it is going to get street driven are you going to put matching rims on both sides, or keep two styles on?

Not my cup of tea, but it looks better than the first impression I got of the kit elsewhere. The front (lights especially) reminds me of the Koenigsegg. I imagine it will look better when finished, especially with the kind of money you'll be putting into it. I'm also very glad the car isn't all show and no go.

absolutely phenomenal. i'm sure you had in mind the association to the premier FD in the new fast and the furious movie, which will make your car greatly desired and popular in the mainstream car culture. By far the best move I've seen an aftermarket vendor make, hope this turns out well !

Seems to me that in every exterior related post, you end up talking about your car. Although I too wouldn't mind saying I have some RE stuff on my car All this talk about the new "look" makes me eager to see pics.

Anyway, I can certainly appreciate the amount of work into iforged's car. I look forward to seeing the end result, be sure to post pictures when completed.

How funny after seeing pictures of your car, the Apexi drift car, and RJ's NSX I decided to take my car over there.

I use two different styles to showcase our product. For roadracing use I will be installed our 1 piece forged lightweight wheels. The car will mainly be a showcar.

Actually I agree with you on the Koeningsegg resemblence. I am not a total fan of the rear yet, but it should look better painted. I will be posting some pictures next week after it comes out of the paint booth.

I am not a big fan of re-molded cars, but I am curious to see how this FD (if I could still see it as that) turns out!


Definately drop the car down at the shows/events. It will make the car look so much more nicer than that NSX in the pic.



iForged FTW!

A-Apec Tuning's 500R kit has put down 500rwhp with 20psi...450 around 1 bar. I don't think you'll find a turbo more capable.

I'd prefer to see 'Arrow' style wheel on the car...Arrow is my fev Iforged wheel.

It seems FDs are being transfer to wilder cars every moment. It's now way different than 3-4 years ago.

Engine is out because I am painting the engine bay as well. SP Engineering is doing all my engine work. The engine is already built as of now, I am just deciding if I should upgrade my turbo to the TO4Z

i would say go all out on the turbo and sprint for a T51R-SPL its good for over 600hp and has great spool-up time IMO...plus once the turbo is spooled all you hear is the turbo screaming!

Ahhh yes, I remember when you posted the porsche a while back and got slammed. I think that the exact comment was "german rice"

Well project looks good, and I hope that all goes well.

I love that Veilside fortune kit! It isnt a bodykit you see everyday, like Cwest+feed+and so on. Keep up with the good work! Poste more pictures from the front and side "i dont like the rearwindow thought...." hehe

Best regards
