Littleguy Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Added a cf rear diffuser and cf sideskirts. Here are a couple of quick shots I took before the car was put away. Hopefully the car will be completely finished by next year! http://www.newcelica.org/photopost/data/500/IMG_17451.jpg http://www.newcelica.org/photopost/data/500/IMG_17471.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrendanB Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Loving the way that's turning out, red on the FD's looks spot-on. Definitely lower it in the near future, and maybe add a rear lip spoiler, or the Spirit R rear wing? Awesome looking car overall, regardless, and definitely cool it's got the LS engine in it!

BrendanB Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 That body style is so secksey... And to think that it's 22 years old, still looks beautiful and like a new design nowadays, hasn't aged at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowering it more is in the plans but not right away, what will be done by next summer in order will be: 1. finish the top end of the motor (next month, currently it's a cam only car) 2. Custom exhaust (next month) 3. Decide on wheels (right now leaning towards some Advans) 4. New coilovers. 5. Big brakes. For now I see myself staying without a spoiler, it just looks so clean without it and lets the wideness of the rear end be appreciated (at least by me lol). Shine pieces I'm assuming? How hard was the install/fitting? Looks good. Yes they are Shine pieces. The fitment on the parts was top notch, and the quality of the carbon fiber and the weave were very very good. The install was really surprisingly easy but I have to give lots of the credit for it to Shine making these products so well. I'll be installing my Sake Bomb headlights this weekend so I'll be sure to take some pictures of them on the car as well. I've got the package right here with me and they were well worth the 4 month wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FourString Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 A Shine Feed hood, sides, and rear diffuser are on the list this year for mine. Good choice. Very clean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokey Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Good to hear the pieces fit well I've always liked that diffuser. If you're looking at Advan XD-9s then you likely won't be able to do big brakes with them (in offsets that look good). I have Wilwood fronts and there was no way they were going to fit with them.

My friend got the pro rear diffuser (mine is the street), if that's the one you are going to get you should know that we can now all see his gas tank, lol.

I have Wilwood fronts and there was no way they were going to fit with them. Thanks for the heads up, I'll most likely go with the RGII's or just get some TE37's. As far as brakes, yeah, I've decided that I'm going to pick the wheels and offset that I want first and then design my suspension setup and brakes around the look I want for the car. I've looked into a couple of premade big brake kits but if there isn't an option I like or can use I'll just go custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 FD's always look lifted in the back. Stock suspention just really makes it stick out more. I like the defuser. I have gone back and forth on adding it to mine, but haven't found any reviews for actual performance quality. I do like the look and have to assume it is more functional than stock set up.

Tripleskate Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 He's got more in those wheels than you do your entire Mazda. :fa: Littleguy what width are they in the rear? Looks like a square stance 9", maybe +35-45 offset. Just eyeballing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
