This is when I first bought the car

Modifications are:

KnightSports front bumper
Feed vented headlight cover
RE-Amimiya side skitrs, rear arch extensions and rear spats
MazdaSpeed rear spoiler
Racing Hart 18" wheels
Ohlins suspension
ARC air-box
Apexi rad
ARC smic intercooler
R-Magic earthing kit
Hard pipes and silicon pipes
Apexi Cat back
Braided brake lines

Compression on buying:

Front Rotar 8.5 / 8.3 / 8.4
Rear Rotar 8.6 / 8.5 / 8.3

Since then I\'ve installed boost/water temp/oil temp guages in to the passenger side dash.

I have an Apexi Power FC and Commander and C West sleek headlights ready to go on. I\'ve had the dash/door trim sprayed gloss black and replaced a few interior parts with tears or marks. The biggest change to the outside is a FEED front bumper.

Unfortunately it\'s a replica bumper so doesn\'t fit quite right. Im after a standard bumper (early or 99 spec) with splitter now as i think it follows the lines of the car better.

Im also after rear storage bins to replace seats, or I may just remove them and carpet it.

After this I\'ll enjoy the car for a while then maybe go single, or sell this and buy a single RX7.

that compression sounds pretty darn high.

Good call on the feed bumper, looks way nicer!!
