I don't know if the pictures are now visible, but I've uploaded some pics.

It came with some nice parts:
-Apexi Power FC ECU (without Commander)
-Tein Street HR Suspension
-Facelift front
-C-West Hammershark Wing
-HKS intake piping and piping from IC to throttle valve
-kevlar 'airbox' called AirDancer
-complete OEM Exhaust (great because our racetrack here has strict noise limits)

Shipping in Japan

At first I only want to get it through the TÜV (German mot), to make it street legal.
But I also want to participate in race practice days at my local racetrack to improve my skills.

2020 maybe I want to participate in the GermanTimeAttack series.

Mods I planned for this winter:
-new rims (9x18 ET40 all around with 255 tyres)
-maybe a new suspension (I'm in love with the öhlins supsension, buy it's super expensive )
-new intercooler
-HKS high power exhaust
and some gauges in the interior

Mods planned for the future:
-twinscroll turbo
-decat
-brigdeport
-link or adaptronic ecu
-diffbrace
-cage
-some aero like diffuser and stuff

Sounds like you've got some serious stuff planned for that car. Good stuff though. I've never seen that type of wing before, but I must say I like it a lot. Looks like the '99 spec wing but way more aggressive. Congrats on the purchase!

Thank you

It wasn't very easy to find out what wing it is, because it's very rare. Same for the TBO sideskirts or the AirDancer airbox. Never saw them on any other car.
I think the previous owner purcgaspu a lot of cool stuff. Sadly he removed some of that before here got rid of the car.
Another sad thing is, that my Mazdaspeed shift **** has been stolen in the way from Japan to Germany :-(

​​​​​​​If I find some free time, I will start an CFD analysis of that wing and try to compare it to the OEM 99 spec wing
