Mental car that mate. I\'d get it for the body kit alone. Have always loved the Kazama Kit :D

Buy it!!!!!!!!!!
 
1) It has alot of bloody expensive stuff on it.
2) With a little personal adjustment and styling on certain things it will be one hell of a mean street car
3) You will kick yourself if you dont, Why? because for the price of that car it would cost you a hell of a lot more to make another FD to the same specs.
4) If you buy it with a rebuil in mind, New large alloy rad, and a clean up think of the awsome car you would have for the price.

Quote from: nikp;528622what i meant by structural was not in the sense of safety. I would agree that they are an  important safety requirement!

I meant adding to the overall chassis stiffness and resistence agaisnt twisting.

Also to do with the panels behind the fender/door being cut up to fit the rail on most kits for the fd, it\'s not ideal!

Car looks great, just needs a few minor adjustments- more aggressive wheels & a darker paint job & it would be perfect :D.

U can\'t go wrong... depending on how much your getting it for, the parts alone are worth a bomb! The fact that it\'s an rs-r is quite nice too i suppose :cool.

You would be surprised, a door is designed to make a big A brace from the two front hinges to the Door catch, Basically the theory is the same as welding two bars in a v from the door hinges to the quarter.

I would buy it you can sort the doors out later.
 
You can piggy back an F-Con pro and PFC

Nice car, the kit has the other front Kazama fenders that blend back into the bodywork rather than the sticky out ones I have. My kit has been tweak to make it wider than the standard Kazama kit (heh why not eh)! But its still my favourite of the wide kits out there.

Your gay if you dont buy this.

What you\'ll probably find is that they\'ve upgraded the ecu from standard to apexi and probably binned off the standard ecu, then upgraded to f-con.  Leaving the Apexi to run bog standard things that the standard ecu would of controlled, and having the mapping done on the f-con.

I had a similar setup on a supra that was brought over.  Although I sold them both and just replaced it with a motec.

Seen a few cars use the PFC with F-Con Pro.  Think they do it so you can still view the info from the PFC commander. ie injector duty, knock etc.  So many quality HKS goodies on that car.

Man, i really do think that is awesome......all it needs is things tidying up on it (and get rid of those headlights! :D), and that is mega.

How much are those HKS boxes....something like 5k arnt they?

How much is the whole car btw?
Turned into the worst part of my life....my precious fd3 has gone, but never forgotten....roll on a new life!!!!
