Talk to Jonathan from GorillaRE. He's the only FEED dealer in USA! I'm going to order some other FEED parts from him in next couple of weeks. Maybe we could split shipping from Japan.

Yep, that's the Raceshop rollbar. Far as I know, they are no longer being made. Last batch started when I kept asking Larry about making some more and finally he did. But I don't think he will as I asked him couple of years ago about making more for some of the local guys I knew. Also, Fritz has couple for sale right now. If you are willing to pay for slightly used ones... contact Fritz Flynn.

Thought he had Autopower not Raceshop ??
I like the Raceshop one better cause it bolts up to the rear strut towers instead of deleting the rear speakers or tool/jack.

Thanks

This thread reminds me that I *do* like Montego Blue.

I'm not reminded of that enough.

Thanks for the kind words guys..

I'll be doing few more things to the MB but I need to also work on my SSM. I'm going to put my recent add on and take some pics over the weekend.... hopefully some of you guys will appreciate the new look.

Anyhow, Here is another pic of the MB FD from IA 2010.

an MB with the paint in good condition is gorgeous, sadly it's also one of the hardest to find with good paint.

I am trying to get the car to look very similar to this B-Spec RX7... with some rare Mazda/Mazdaspeed parts inside and out... I'm getting pretty close to getting all the parts I need.. Now just getting off my *** and put some of these parts in... including some unique stuff in the engine bay (I'll post details to it later... but I been planning it for about 6 months) which will also include all mazda stuff

Yeah, I knew about the car of the Month.

I used to live in Tierra Verde (Tampa/St.Pete Area) for 4 years... and used to go down there 4-5 times a year. But now, I haven't been in about 2 years.

your car is bad *** - 100000000 times better than what i have right now. that said you might want to buy a new coolant and washer bottle reservoirs. the ones in the pictures look at bit yellowed.
