They look a little wrong to me.

Thinking the same - they\'re a bit \'sticky outy\'

Need some wide arches now Ben

[davehg]

they look like 19" wheels??

[FDDreamer]

That\'s lovely Ben, seems like Miguel has some competition! Been waiting to see how this would all turn out after you updated us a couple of weeks ago...certainly didn\'t disappoint!

I can see now what you meant about the rainbow metallic interior...talk about unique!

By the way, what do the decals say?

Can I ask a few questions as a complete novice to both the site and the Mazda RX 7, I am looking at selling my BMW Mini One and buying a third Gen REX. A comment by Initial D has made me think.
I am going to have to run it as my main car but you have said that you would not take yours out in the rain why is that?

Also if you dont mind answering this one what was the complete cost of your car? If it was a bit rude asking that question i apologise already.

Cheers

Matt ( the Newbie)
see you at Billing Aquadrome 25th of July!!!!

more of a RWD thing in a put yer foot down in rain rear wheel spin say hello crash barrier, at least that\'s wot happens to sum poor souls http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_5_119.gif\' border=0> but nothing to necessarily have to avoid which a bit of common sense, good rubber, good driving & restraint wont help.........
So dont be totally scared off but do respect the power & the more powerful the more of a hand or foot full i guess.......

Mate, I\'m loving that underbody diffuser thing! Who makes it and where can I get one??!!

[Initial-D]

The rears are 10J 18"+22. The offset is the same as on Imamura\'s D1 car. Definatly 18\'s just the deep dish and chrome make em look bigger!

I had the arches rolled but still need more arch!

I want to get some RE Amemiya rear fender flares on the back but I\'m having trouble getting em! Suggestions for quick delivery anyone?

I\'m not an avid fan of RWD in the rain as the rear can step out if your a bit heavy footed coming off roundabouts (as I learnt to my cost)! Also if you just cleaned the car it\'ll get all dirty especially my rear diffuser (RE Amemiya FRP Pro version) which doubles up as an excellent stone collector!! :p

Cost so far on my car well erm, I\'ve spent about 12K I think now!

[rextreme]

Dude,

+20 is what Im after for the wide body kit.
Which will still run thin,

You will definately need to fatten the rear.

Immamura\'s D1 car has widened rear arcehes. Now also Wide body kit.

Dont worry about fd in the wet, Just learn to drive.
Fd is still one of the best handling cars around.

go and do a driving course. practice in the rain. drive a lot.
Dont just show the car. DRIVE it.

Russ.

mmm lovely!

that deserves the seal of approval...

I like it A LOT

[Initial-D]

That\'s why I want some Re Amemiya rear arch fenders - I feel most of the wide bodys alter the lines of the car to much.

I agree with ya driving regardless of weather - just a bugger to keep it clean thats all!!

I\'ll have to get my arches rolled some more and then flarred if I can\'t get any RE A bits.  You got any bigger pics of em or the Feed ones by chance?

[Initial-D]

Ha haa.. cheers Andy!

[Initial-D]

My suspension is now super hard so I get no rubbing in the arches although British roads have alot to answer for! :p

[BanzaiGang]

Well we said it all in \'the flesh\' mate didnt we? Looks great up close and we were gutted when you flashed us (ooh mavis!) and pulled over with half yer tyres rubbed out!

Now, fingers crossed for JAE.....

[skim41]

[Kieron]

I love the car, rear diffuser is deffinatly on my wish list!

Matt, dont worry about the FD int he wet, I use mine as my everyday car, can have soem great fun if your in the drifter mood, just be carefull exiting corners and roundabouts.
