First FD. . .RHD, wasn't exactly what I was looking for so I sold it. . .




For this one . . .





Very pleased at how well it handles, just wish it had a little more steering angle (Kazama rods coming. . . )

I know I know... I realized it was a pretty shitty pic after I posted it. Don't worry, I just picked up a dSLR so expect absolute supremo pics very soon.

Very nice! If you don't mind me asking, what are the wheel specs on your car? They look great. Anything special going on with your suspension? Thanks for the help, slick car!

Much respect,

You would need a tripod for those shots. Hand holding the camera with that shutter speed will never result in a clearly focused image. I realize it's dark in the garage though forcing you to use said shutter speed since you aren't using a flash... Even if you dont have a tripod just resting the camera on a trashcan or something would suffice.

Car looks good though

Islander, I just bought the same steering wheel as a combo package. It has the NRG short hub and the NRG quick release. I spoke to the people and they confirmed that the package is all I would need to change over steering wheels. My husband is a big guy so we went with the 350mm size wheel.

Oh, to stay on topic with the thread, here is a pic of our CW in the process of being rebuilt. Going single turbo and Spirit R interior.



test fitting the new wheels, going 18x9.5 with 45 offset with 285/30 on all four corners

Depending on the hub, you may also need an adapter for the NARDI deep corn.

Works bell makes good stuff

NRG short hub and the NRG quick release, fits without adapters. If you get the rally concave one Im running be prepared for a much much closer steering wheel the stock. Here is a pick showing how much the wheel has moved forward, I wanted something close for how I drive and sit.

so my trans is stuck in second and the shifter moves around like a joystick; there's no resistance at all and you can't feel the gates. i pulled the shifter and put it back in making sure it was in the socket correctly and it's still doing the same thing. you guys seen or heard of this and maybe no what's wrong?

WTF is up with the seats Tai-Lun? You have a nice black on black car with a nice interior, and you put bright white seats in there?
