Ya, I m leaving coilovers for next year. the seat I m getting is the sparco fighter. I just think its the best price/performance seat available today. Bride has some nice seats but they are expansiivveeee. lol. ya I love the mazdaspeed shock/springs as well. They feel muuchhh better from the stock setup.

Damnnnn you got the one I really want
That one looks so good, come with all the pads...
I got the basic one sparco Spirt ? I got a good deal $240
the fighter was like over $500, right?

Get some sway bars, they work well with the mazdaspeed shock/springs
Stocks has a lot of body roll

WVBoosted8 06-14-2009 12:22 AM

I dont think those knee pads are meant for the door panel, I thought it was for the center. +1 to what these other guys are saying, decals and "roof air diverters" or whatever the hell need to go. I like the wheels though.

Ya the fighter is about $500 but I still havent sold my stock rims and my air box and all the other stuff so I can get that amount pretty easily. I ve got the whole Eibach sway kit brotha!! :D 27mm in front and 17mm in the back. Not bad, but the 32mm and 19mm was like $200 extra ;/

haaahaa,I got the 32 / 19 ones from Tanabe
They are awesome
I still have my stock air box, already sitting in my garage for 3 years =__=

lol....pretty much the same now, except mine's yellow and yours red, :lol2:

How could you get all these done in such a short time...
I done mine for almost 3 years
still have parts to go....lol

well...pretty much done now, except for supercharge/turbo left...

ya the kneepads can be installed on both sides. I need those :D lol. I cant track/autox without em. I slide so much on my leather seat without the harness that I need them in order to make any acceptable time. I had bruses on my knees for like 5days without em, after my first track day. lol

haha, I have a big dent on my credit card right now. lol. I mean ...biggggg. The good thing is that my rent is only $400 a month so I can pay it off in some respectable time.

I ll let u know how the eibach kit feels but I dont really have anything to compare it to, except the stock suspension.

The turbo is really tempting but I just dont have any more $$ right now. maybe next year!? we ll see ...

haha, oh ya man. I know that felling.

I got the kneepads from ebay. They are really cheap and they work great. U can hit em, push em and they still feel very soft. Helps a lot if ve got the leather seat.
