I am having a custom set made in red since you can only get them in white or blue from Work.

They were only made in regular kevlar, never in any other color. You would need to go to an upholstery shop and get them covered in red kevlar if you wanted that look.

some shots with a real camera and photographer.











Just need some coilovers so I can lower the car, black lug nuts and some mesh for the front bumper, then the exterior will be complete.

nice shots B!

Why are you going with ohlins or aragosta? i know they are very expensive and probably one of the best out there but do you really need them? why not go with a cheaper option and use the rest of the money for the engine/transmission mods..

Your FD looks sick Bryan, very well done. I agree with the mesh and lug nuts. Have you considered the newer mazda flying M emblems?

Btw, not sure if you saw my thread and the 2002 cluster is installed, with a new chrome bezel piece and new 94 finish surround and hood. I just need to get more even lighting and I'll be happy, it looks awesome as is

Thanks. I am going with them because I am getting them used and even though they are $3000+ new, I can snag them for what an entry/medium level set costs here stateside. Might as well get the best at the price I am getting them for.

Thanks Rich. Not going to add any emblems, not that it would help people identify it anyways. Keep me in tune on the 2002 cluster and the operation of the speedo, glad you like how it looks I surely do miss it.

Im baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack.

Just got this bad boy in. ARC Super racing full titanium exhaust, 90mm piping! Only two titanium exhausts have ever been made with piping larger then 80mm, it is this and the greddy ti-r which was only available in Japan. Just a FYI, the hks ti 4" actually uses SS piping and has a titanium canister. Do not confuse this with the super silencer exhaust that I had previously, this is one of 5 and all 5 were specifically made for JGTC cars. This exhaust came directly off a JGTC car that had been sitting for a few years over in Japan. Can't even put a price on this, was never sold to the public. Craftsmanship and quality are beyond perfect, I only expect the best from ARC products. The sound is just amazing in everyway, DEEP rumble at start up and just absolutely screams at WOT - orgasm. Little highway drone and it is a bit loud, I expect it to get a lot louder once I get my r-magic titanium midpipe in. Suspension should be ordered in the next 4 weeks or so. You guys will be seeing a lot of updates soon.

Some recent shots I took:





Exterior wise I need to get the black work lug nuts, suspension, and paint the middle part of the wheel satin black where the centercaps would usually go. Other then that, I am saving up for a HKS t04z turbo and supporting mods.
