well right now the interior is spoken for in the GXL, though the dash in the vert is still up for grabs, the vert seets, umm....theres a few things left on both cars just need to see what you need/want before they both end up as scrap metal.

meets what? I spose I can arrange to show myself in something this weekend, either the Mazda or my DSM still kinda undecided on which needs to go somewhere. But I DID get some new mini cd-r's for the digi cam so pictures of that thing to follow as soon as the rain stops being a ****, and the bumper/fenders are off of the black vert already, slow progress on it till seats arrive.

But what I dont get is, how can you be an enthusiast if you cant be bothered to drive a bit to go see a few OTHER cars besides the ones you and your buddies own? I mean hell I drive to ******* Knoxville and Maryville on a nearly monthly basis to do **** with other rotards....even if it is the same ones.

The tiny *** throttlebody and only TWO injectors...


The massive Griffon radiator with a slim Efan wired into the stock efan harness(still need to clean all that up.


The huge mitsubishi afm/mas/mafm(dunno what they call it but you get the idea), its got a K&N filter already in it...but that just looks ghetto in there but it pulls cold air from stock piping. And you can see the absolutely tiny Mitsubishi 12A turbo sitting in place, must....get...bigger....turbo...


And my optima pulling new duties in the 'quest, which right beside it you can see the AC pump (which will get pulled) and the MSD coil for spark.


All in all not a bad score for $1000, had to buy new rear calipers and soon gonna get the other head put in, and get new rubber and a new front airdam...since I dont like my stock FMIC to be that noticeable...

yeah, I think the turbo inlet could suck down a golfball...but not much else.

go go na fc DD's still decent mpg and still a rotary, and much more reliable once all the emissions are jerked out proper >.>

Lol why not, im sure im gonna go nuts when it comes time to 'play' with the **** in the engine bay of this monster. And its a damn good thing we have no emissions laws on this side of the state, I probably make up the amount of pollution 15 of them hybrids are supposed to save. Though if I had to redo the NA's exhaust id probably want the RB y-pipe and cans to complete my system, but as it stands I would have to replace the presilencer after the header since my stainless piping is welded to the silencer and then bolted to my header.

And come to think of it....my T2's 'stock' turbo was almost 2x as large as this and spooled far faster. I think ive seen full (like 7 or 8psi) boost by 2k (redline is like 5.5k) and IIRC the T2 got to 10psi by 2k and hauled *** the rest of the way.

Good Grief! The interior on that thing looks like the FC. Door Panels, center console, gauges are similar style. Wild.
