rxheaven93




i only know how to upload pics onto nexopia so yeah there she is
i got inpatient had to post early car is still in van should be here shortly.. i have typed the known mods done below

Modifacations: Aftermarket Greddy t78 Single-Turbo Kit including Stainless-steel Exhaust Manifold & External Wastegate, Front-mount Intercooler kit. "FAST" Rear Spoiler, Rear EURO Tail lights(have stock in car), 17" Advan 3-spoke Alloys (front), 17" Enkei Racing Alloys (rear)still undecided wat wheels i want, HKS Hypermax Fully Adjustable Suspension, ALCON (GREX) Front Caliper & Rotor Brake-kit. A/M Engine Pulleys, A/M Fuel-pressure Regulator, A/M Stainless-steel Turbo-back Exhaust(just bought fujitsubo exhaust from allen), Greddy B.O.V., HKS Air Filter. HKS EVC Boost Controller, HKS Turbo Timer, Greddy Gauges: Boost (X2), Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Exhaust Temp, Water Temp. Evolution Steering Wheel, Mazdaspeed Shift knob, A/M Pedals, Battery Re-located in rear..i am going to be taking off that crazy rear wing and replce it with stock or my buddys cf wing off his fd and give him stock one..

i got a few things alreaddy (c-west front bumper,apexi safc neo,apexi rsm, flush mount head lights. fujitsubo exhaust, cf hood, 5spd rx-8 shifter knob) front bumper and head light giving to me by my buddy sam with the 3rotor fd. also trying to find side skirts and rear bumper to match front bumper.
and now for the cons: The exterior has a pin-dent on the driver's/passenger's doors, has paint-fade on the RHR QTR panel. There is a piece missing off front lip spoiler. The interior is missing the rear floor carpet, glove box and rear seat. i got glove box put in b4 it left japan. but still no rear carpet and rear seats.. i might just oreder the cargo space from my work so it dont look retarded..

i am looking for wheels but dont know what i want yet... im selling the mismatch wheels so if ne one want to buy them pm me..

wow thats a long time i was thinking it was blown in japan already and will come here blown hahahahaha

rxheaven93
i guess well have to wait and see i have a video but i dunno how to upload it

First of all sell your safc. Its garbage and you can't use it to tune the fd at all. You should get a power fc asap if it doesn't come with one otherwise I give you 1 hour before you blow it up. Also the hks evc; throw it out and get a good boost controller. I had one and spiked up to 20psi and blew my motor.

I'm also assuming that you have bigger injectors to run that turbo otherwise bye bye motor. Also make sure the turbo isn't blown when you pick up the car. I have a strange feeling that its toast.

Next match up the wheels so that you don't have 2 different wheels on the car; unless your going for the jdm looser look.

Then I would take it to the dyno and check the wideband to see how your tune is. By the way don't take it past 16psi on the stock map sensor because you are reaching the max boost on it (17psi). If you want to boost more than 17 psi you have to get a 3 bar map sensor and set it up (again you will need a power fc).

Good luck and hope to see your car at the meets.

What's the fuel management? I don't see a PFC or aftermarket ECU system there.

I hope that SAFC isn't for this car, because that would be pretty worrisome.

T78 on stock injectors? Oh man...

Crazyrx7: You beat me to post by 2 minutes!

Edit: Contact 'Amar' he has the same Advans on the rear, between the two of you, you have a complete set!

Low blow? WTF IC lets there customers pick there own cars, not like they make them buy them.

Anywho, the car has to already have some sort of fuel management, even if it just tuned ECU.

rxheaven93
i imported it my self.. i am getting anew wing and wheels... car is graded 3.5.. and amars wheels are 4 bolt.. and i have a lump some of cash going into this car when its here soo it will eb totaly changed ina month of it being here

elementfd
i re-read my posts and i was a little harsh. im sorry. i have seen sum pretty sweet cars on import concern to be honest. But its cool you imported it yourself.

~Will
P.S; cant wait to see it once all your dough goes into it.

I know what you mean. It makes me want to sell mine and get something more rare like maybe a vette, or a mustang or a camaro or even a skyline.:lol: :thumbup:

Wookey
It is dissapointing to know that all these FD's are coming in. But there will be lots of spare parts:thumbup:

Why dissapointed? I would rather see a FD drive around than almost any other car.

It will take away that little skip of the heartbeat when you see one now, but still...

(I remember when I was younger, I would literally drop everything and chase a FD around they were that rare).

crazyrx7
Just wait till next year; the mkiv supra will be even more popular. There will be tons of them around.

I don't know about that. They still sell for a fair bit in Japan, so you won't be able to get them here for anywhere near as cheap as an FD.

I think it will be kinda like the GT-R. Sure there are lots of GTS-Ts around Edmonton, but there aren't nearly as many GT-Rs. Plus I think the MKIV TTs will be selling for a fair bit more $ than the GT-Rs.

To each his own I guess. But I personally hate RHD cars over here. Seeing them gives me the same feeling as when I see a riced out sunfire or civic.

nismo_silvia
just wait till the supras 93+ are able to be imported. there are going to be hundreds

Prudz_lude
who cares if there are hundreds of any car. Honestly you guys make me laugh my ass off. Its not like ANY of your guys cars are rare at all. There are hundreds of thousands of all the cars so who cares. FD's, im stokked. it means i get to look at nicer cars on the roads compared to the shit boxes and huge dullies that flood our streets. More supra's the better. All of our cars can be found everywhere. the only thing that makes them original is how you do them up. Fuck i own a prelude. There are thousands of these around edmonton but none of them look at all like mine so i do not give a shit haha.

Sorry about the rant, i just think someone needed to say it.

180sxforthewin

The money i save from having my domestic in the shop every week can go towards the viagra.

midnite
:lol:


I'm with Prudz_lude and the like. The more FDs, Supras, whatever, the better! What's wrong with having more sexy FDs to look at as you drive to work?

I bet some will even be done up quite nicely.

schmitty
Niiissee:bowdown:

Driven




It even has those cool lights that add 15 whp each.

nismo_silvia
fuck that spoiler is nasty i dont think i will be able to sleep now :tear: :tear: :tear:

midnite
should be a sweet car once it's dericed :thumbup:

Dan_s_young
Wow those tail lights look crazy ugly. I'd change them back to stock first thing...

Godzilla
you should bring it out to the BBQ meets so we can use the spoiler to put the fixings on our burgers (anyone have a boomerang shaped table cloth?).

thats just me being an asshole, nice car im just not a fan of the spoiler, tailights and mismatched rims.

Fazda
the more fd's the better. it just makes it a little more fun on the streets. lol, I welcome anything with two turbochargers!

180sxforthewin

At least your 2 work most of the time. I'm having problems finding a @#$@# vacuum/solenoid problem here.

:)


More FD's = good. I did rag on another JDM FD owner on another forum because he was being cheap, but I apologized because, hey, I remember how I would've done anything to get into a FD when I was younger.

So, live and let live! FD's are amazing machines and everyone should try to get into one at least once!

remove that shit. Non sequential!:thumbup: My FD has a total of 4 vacuum lines:)

ehos
Honestly, I'm turning into an old man, so I need as much of the low end power as I can get :)

But, at this point, I'm thinking I will have to sacrifice it. (I'll try 'simplified' first though...). I've never had a boost problem this stupid before (my secondary is perfect, but my primary is fucked, HOW is that possible??????)

I love tinkering with it though. If I fixed it, I'd just have to work on something else. :)

rxheaven93
for the last time all the gay shit on that car will eb taking care of with one month... but the ricer tails i wanna tint them see if they look okay lol.. but that wing is just retarded i agree... dinner table i will give it to ne one here for free!!! and if the taill look stupid i will sell for ten bucks
