Some new pix
Just a few pics that my friend shot of my 7 after I washed/waxed it. I don't know what's up with the one picture from the side that has a lot of white **** in it though

Thanks. http://www.flickr.com/photos/crazytromboneplayer Here's the link to the larger ones. It's my friends account so there's a lot of other random **** on there too. The larger ones are a lot nicer though. Damn photobucket and it's small photo size limit

Thanks. It's got stance c/o's already. And I do want a cf hood. I'll need to do something with the front seeing as how there's a crack in the bumper. Hopefully a s5 bumper or something. Who knows.

camber barely effects tire wear if at all. its toe angle that with effect tire wear. my fc has about 2 degrees negative in the rear. no uneven wear and tread is good. now my toe was messed up in the front and tires were at secondary rubber after 500 miles.

Well my toe was okay-ish in the front, but i had mad tire wear from the camber in the front. Like, 8 or more degrees of it or some ****. Was crazy. So I'm avoiding it for now lol

very nice pictures man! I have always liked that car since I've first saw it. 3rd picture down is freaking amazing! What camera are you shooting with if you don't mind?

Demontwig. . . I've been meaning to tell you for a while that I admired the car in the avatar. Full sized pics look great. . . I'm still kicking myself in the *** for not getting a s4 turbo instead of the GXL.

Thanks! I was going to go with a n/a, but I am a power hungry bastard, and I knew I was going to end up turbo swapping it anyway. I would like to get a n/a someday, I think

wow, that looks really clean. Unless it can put 400 hp to the ground though, I might have to pass on a trade.
Now, I might look into buying it...but my *** is broke.

Haha is the engine rebuilt yet? How many miles? I don't usually like a lot of the n/a fc's, but yours looks real nice. You going to turbo swap it?

Yeah. . . Previous owner had an instant oil change place run a **** synthetic in it. The original engine was destroyed. . . So I bought it with a Brand New Engine from Mazda. It also had a new transmission. I've put maybe 30-40,000 miles on it since I got it in 2003. Chassis miles are high though. . 170ish.
So far I've been doing a slow but steady restoration. When this engine starts to go, I plan to do a turbo swap. But at this rate that will be like 2012. (I put maybe 10 miles on it per week). I am always looking locally for a TurboII in good condition, but Kevin (Rotary Resurrection) keeps buying all of them. .
