I think the MS kit is fine. It comes with screens already in place to protect the oil coolers and radiator. So its a nice item to have and it looks great.

Those gauges are MazdaSpeed... not hard to find in Japan - just walk in to the dealers.

Nice to see how the Jap mod - it is the way to do it.

The guy is into drifting. This is the Japanese way to do. He has the brake and suspension mod, added the oil cooler and meter to protect overheating. Smarty modder I reckon.

The steering wheel is aimed for drifting - it is drifters signature steering wheel in Japan - every drifter has one ~

I am impressed.

EDIT: One thing confirmed. I will have the car lowered (with MS coilover) and CE28N

He added everything. The complete car Mazdaspeeds from the factory only came in two colors, strato blue and sunlight silver. I can read a little Japanese, and his website is kind of like a pictorial log of all his upgrades.

what is this saying about the camber adjustment?

before.



after.



fujita engineering product right???

text from pics.

"ランクル8さんのホイールマッチングを参考に計算をしたところ、28mmとなりましたが、

FEEDのスペーサーが、F18mm・R23mmを考慮し、前後25mmにしました。

スペーサーのスタッドボルトが長く、純正のナットが装着出来なかったため、

貫通タイプのナットを装着しました。ちょっと見栄えが...

街乗り程度では、擦ることは無いですが、60km/hで大きな段差を乗り越えると

前後ともかすかにフェンダーのツメ(加工無しのため)がタイヤに当たります。

また、タイヤの動きが鈍くなりました。(特にリヤが)"

He's saying he tried using spacers by FEED to push out the wheels so they match the fender width. It caused him no problems driving around town, but at speeds above 60 km/h there was some slight rubbing.

Did he say he lowered the car with the MS springs/struts?
