Actually it's the smell of a short in the wiring harness somewhere, but hey, it's still a nice car. Anyways, my friends at Davis told me about a fancy new parking structure so I thought I'd take some pictures there this weekend. My EGI fuse started blowing so no other locations for at least a week while my mechanic tries to track down where the wires are a-rubbin'.

Only plans for the near future are to fix the wiring issue, remove the seatbelts and motors and install the 5-point harnesses. I may also add on a ShineAutoProject front lip because they have so many available with a group buy going on. Oh yeah, and paint the freaking mesh black.

Mods include:

Mild porting of the engine (still smog-able)
K&N intake kit with heatshield
Rotary Performance high flow catalytic converters
Custom dual exhaust with two Supertrapp mufflers
MSD 6D Ignition box and shift-light
Racing Beat 9lb. flywheel

JIC FLT-A2 coilovers
Racing Beat front swaybar
Removed rear swaybar
All polyurethane suspension bushings

Corksport front and rear strut tower bars

Corksport 30mm wide body front fenders
5Zigen FN01-RC wheels (17x9)
Cobra Milano S bucket seats
Porterfield RS-4 brake pads
KVR cross-drilled rotors
Goodridge SS brake lines
Motul RTF600 brake fluid
Mazdatrix Short Shifter
Momo Race shift ****

Loving It!

 

i just creamed all over my computer screen......oh jizzz

 

 

sweet, loving it too..

 

i love those front fenders! clean car.

 

Wow....nice fenders...hows teh fitment quality of them?

 

Well, fitment isn't 100% perfect, but it's fine if you ask me. I care more about stuffing 30mm more rubber under the front fenders than how flush they are.

 

Yeah, though I just peeked at corksports site...they seem to not carry em...unless i missed it...or misread your modlist...

Thats not too bad a price actually.....another item to add to the long list of parts....the project jsut gets bigger, thanks for the info though, nice car too.

 

wow that is relly nice did u just buy that ????

wish my offset is flushed like that!

 

Looks like eriksseven's car.

 

that car is the hotness

ps. please lose the chicken wire in the headlight holes

 

sweet ride... what is the color code / make?

 

2nd that....otherwise looks good.
I would also pull the lower part of the front bumper cover off (bottom lip) and
sand off the white paint, so that its black again.

 

god damn you make me want to put those fenders on my fc.....i'd just have to shaved the "moldings"

 

Makes me miss my old GTUs turbo..=(

 

F#$%ing beautiful man! mines white too but it needs to be rebuilt otherwise I love the grilles where the ftp lights were nice touch.

 

Very nice, Sir!

i think i love you....

 

The first set of pics were the best. You picked the best time to shoot pics IMO.

Nice backround too. Great car.

 

Sick car! great scenery, and that "chicken wire" really doesn't look that bad, better than a gaping hole at the least. Now about that engine bay...

 

Soooooo.... clean!!!!
