[tetsuyagarage]

[asianrice02]

damn you fd owners!!!

 

[Greg G]

Don't you need an extraction hood when using a V mount setup?

Nice FD!

Nice FD!

I was thinking the same thing. I think he was going for the sleeper look (as much as any FD could be called a sleeper...).

and it's a billion times sexier in person, and i just glanced at it

there's a montego blue twin turbo rx-7 in the area with a new front bumper with some sweet looking turn signals (and i think different headlights). i think he has some pics on myspace. talk about sex on wheels... and it's amazing to drive pant pant.

 

[LagunaMiata]

Mmmm.... is drool bad for a keyboard?
Amazing FD!

I love how FD's seem to look like they're made of liquid...

I was also wondering about the non-extraction hood/V-mount intercooler. Looks like it might have problems later. Nothing a hood change can't fix.

Thanks everyone!!

Yes they seem to have that effect. I purchased the car already painted and the guy that got it painted spent 13k on the job and it has like 20 coats of paint on it...so that gives it the liquid effect. Whats funny is most people ask me what kinda car it is at random places like gas stations. And then they ask me if it was just released or if its a 2006-2007 model. They flip when I tell them its a 93....the design is so ahead of its time really.

Yeah he goes to VTech so he is rarely in RIC

Nice FD!

I have fans on my I/C and I have it setup where there is no extraction hood needed. I have a FC commander in th ecar so I can monitor my water temps and underhoot air temps and they are always much cooler then your average FD. Plus I really like the stock hood

nice, i saw this car on jtuned forum correct?

yeah it was on there...I have posted a few cars on there

nice signal lights in front, led's?

Yes LED's...and thanks

Nice. PFS is still in business? I though he'd been run out of town for ripping people off?

PFS is backed up about 4 months out with all the business they have.....they are booming

Peter Farrel sold the company to his employee Ray Wilson about a year ago and business has been booming since then.

I called in last week to get some more dyno tuning and he said earliest he can take me is Late November..lol
