thanks a lot guys. its a rotary extreme hood with hood dampers and rotary extreme side skirts. i have noticed a slight drop in water and air temps, but i need to add the undertray to see more imporvement. im currently designing a custom radiator panel, so once it's done, i should be running 89-95*c tops during normal driving conditions. my engine runs a little hot now, but once i lay off it, or am stopped at a stop light, it cools down immediatly.

thanks guys. my only complaint with the hood is that i can't close it with the rain guards in because my HKS Racing Suction Kit sits too high. i turned it down, and it still wont clear. i just put them in before i go to bed, in case it rains, and take them out before i drive. she's way too fast for rain drops anyways. 
again thanks for the compliments. if anyone is interested in certain parts of my car, i can gladly take more pictures for you. if you are interested in what i have done, you can check my myspace (what am i? 12?). enjoi!

i think the re hood is the nicest hood for an fd. just my opinion though. i used to think the scood hoods looked amazing but since i saw my friends re hood i've really started hating them haha. there is just no comparison

I think your FD looks really sharp and mean. I was admiring it at rotorfest 
. I should have taken a closer look at your sparcos, as I am in the market for seats. Are those the milanos/torinos? What did you do for brackets?

hey rich. you were one of the people i wanted to meet and thank for all the help on the forum at rotorfest. theyre sparco torinos with factory brackets. they really dont fit. i think Cekret messed up on the install, cause ive seen torinos cleanly fit in a full interiored FD. theyre comfortable seats, but i would get Recaro race buckets if i could.
eric-im sorry to hear that you have to sell the car. ive been meaning to head down to see ray for a tuning session, but ive been busy. ill give you a call when im planning on heading down. anything good lined up after?
oh yea, the R. Pierson vinyl is off. a 6 hour buff job killed it the night before the show (thats why it was an awful redish black color), so i finally took it off and buffed the roof. i have an extra set (black letters with a red lion) but ill wait til next race season to put them on.
