My old daily fc had a ported motor (s5 housings, s4 rotors), stock s5 turbo, front mount, exhaust, rtek ecu, 850cc secondaries. It made 275whp, 275wtq with no boost controller. It would've probably made close to 300 with a boost controller, because power fell off hard up top. Don't know what the boost was, didn't have a gauge in the car haha.

Go back to the earlier pages of this thread. (i was total lurker status with no rx7....) They coordinate with one another. Lol. His brother just has more pony than he does and posts never.
They seem to be trending on pulling the stock 1/4's and poking.
It's kinda cool. Not the "they're both rocking that" thing but the style itself.

I think poking's alright but if you're gonna go through all the effort of body work and what not, why not do some quality fenderwork, or overs or if you hate fiberglass overs do metal overs. I've seen some on S14's they look pretty rad.
Either way both cars a pretty, I wish your bro went with a different vented fender though then the 2 rounded ones.
Chance however is playing with my emotions and I've been waiting to see that white car done or at least painted for a goddamn year now maybe.
Atleast that PS rack is ballers as **** though. I hope you don't blow it and have to trade it in as a core

yea im just lazy.
everytime forrest is in cali im like "get me some fenders for cheap!". He can get the dmax for a good deal so im just holding out till then...
Dont think i would ever cut the quaters, i always thought of just rollin them.
Also i was thinking of using velcro to keep em on... that way the car isnt all molested if i ever take em off.

I wouldn't have thought it was practical to roll fenders out to meet widebody guards?
If you're rolling the lip of the stock guard out, so that it can hang over the sidewall of the tyre and clear then sure, it works to some degree.
But when you're running tyres further out past the car with a widebody, surely the middle/tread of the tyre would be bottoming out on the original guard, you can't push the guard out far enough to allow the tyre to rise up into the body of the car?
Atleast from my own brief tampering, i kept the stock bodywork, but at the rear i had to roll out the outer guard liner/bodywork, and then cut back the 'inner' guard and push it higher up into the car, so that the wheel could rise up into the body without connecting. I then just fibreglassed over it all since it had to be done upside down. You can't see into the tyre wells so meh.
Looking great though
