They did about 1"-1 1/2" from the looks of it.we didn't really ask for the fact that it looks good the way he did it.

Those guys were trying to sell me on flaring my deuce, I couldn't envision how it would be done, or look. I was hesitant having the body cut up, but now that I see it, it all makes sense. Looks like you could easily run even wider wheels, 10's?

turbo_dave 05-14-14 09:54 AM

At first we asked about just adding some small bolt on flares like most rx3 guys do.he convinced us to go this route do to the fact that it will look stock-ish....we were hesitant at first but after seing the work we were happy with it.once it's all painted up we will see how it looks.

Those guys did a pretty good job Dave, from the pics you can hardly tell that it's flared. You taking her to SS?

turbo_dave 11-11-14 02:38 PM

Started to port the irons and changed out the exhaust sleeves on rotor housings in favor of turbo sleeves.

Engine was sent to mazdatrix for some stud work and machining a few months ago,all we need is a few seals that are on their way so we can start stacking this motor up.

Dope car!

turbo_dave 11-02-15 09:24 AM

Stud kit was bought at mazdatrix,and mazdatrix did all the machine work for it to fit.

freddyrx3 11-02-15 03:07 PM

Really nice block

diabolical1 11-03-15 03:14 PM

yes. i love the port work. the stud kit looks pretty spectacular. all around you seem to have a pretty solid setup ready to put some work in.

Such a nice build. I can hope my car will come half as good and I'd be happy.
