fd in magazine this month

i usually try to buy the all the magazines that feature the better fd samples out there. im not talking about the 18 year olds fd with the vinyl all over it, but the better ones, just to get ideas of what other people are doing to thier rides. this months import tuner features a vintage red done up beautifully as a show winner and badass engine suporting 22psi for a 10.5 in the 1/4. its worth buying for all you vintage red owners. my only beef, is the huge uncalled for wing on the back and some decals sporaticly placed over the body that keep it from having a really clean look.

Goodfella thats yours?? I saw it and i was waundering if it was someone on the fourms. Usually you don't see Rx-7's in readers rides. I think they should have a section on your car

rajeevx7:
I think he is reffering to the fact that the topic of GoodfellasFD3S's car being in SSC was posted before within the last couple days, but of course you were actually posting a NEW topic about an FD in Import Tuner so,

Kiffin :
WTF is you bitch'n about?

Goodfella:
Given that my car is used for daily comuting in SoCal traffic I'll stick w/ the auto trans - TYVM.

GoodfellaFD3S, your car is absolutely amazing. But, did anyone else notice the other cars featured? ... so lame, so ricey... rich's car put them all to the worst of shame, and ya know what? the exterior is almost completely stock! How's that for a good reader's ride!

Thumbs up

Thanks for all the kind words guys. It makes all the money and time spent worth it when you see your car in a national mag. I think once I throw the Fikses on (within the month) and upgrade my turbos and make 400-450 rwhp (within the year) I might have a shot at a full article, due in good part to the fact that my R1 looks basically stock. I'm allergic to Veilside body kits, you see
