Quote from: FEED RocketI fully agree, the fortune kit does have presence but definately not my favourite, especially for that kind of money. Why anyone hasnt fitted the new feed kit is beyond me though, well apart from its massively expensive. :Tongue1
 
Good on you though jamie, you\'ll get alot of attention with that badboy! :Thumbs-up


Which Feed kit is that?  Link please!

Much as I\'m not a huge fan of the Fortune kit it\'s certainly a striking piece of work and anyone working to put it together themselves - like any other project - should be commended.

I suspect he is referring to the AFFLUX kit: http://kultivate.wordpress.com/2007/12/17/mazda-rx7-fd3s-by-feed/

It was shown at last years Tokyo Auto Salon as a new product but is now in production

The front is lush, but the back looks a mix or skybus, ferrari and fortune kit

The front looks like a Trevor!

cheers everyone.
as far as progress.......... its currently being painted. had to go over on monday and confirm what parts are to be black and what parts pearl white. I also had two different HOC pearls so had to decide on the tone.
 
will be over at the weekend to see the progress and take pics of those tags that pigme is obsessed with lol.

I accept that not everyone likes the fortune kit.... to be honest there are angles i dont like but when i saw it on the film i had to have one. i couldnt afford the price of the actual ones in the film and i was worried about a coule for sale in japan for around the 18 - 20k mark............ as the pictures were poor and i wasnt sure of the condition of the car / damage etc.
through shopping around i worked out i could build one at a reasonable cost - i personally would not have one if it was going to cost me what most are selling at.
 
as soon as its out the spray shop i will post pics up - also it has 2 mag features already sorted so.................. watch this space

congrats on a well justified banning (for a change ;) )

Ross, the only difference between you and Jamie Supra is that he earns money doing it, you do it for pleasure. :D

That Pigme guy.... ....what a tw@t.

I did try to get hold of the feed kit last year, but was told that feed  would only sell it if they fitted it in japan, maybe thats changed now, looks nice though............
 
good luck jamie with the project.

cheers - im pleased it seems to have worked... wanted the car to look a bit more grown up - if you know what i mean. Although i like the one one the film i saw one in silver and black......... totally changed the car and in my opinion for the better.
will take some propper pics in the next couple of days
