I happen to be very lucky to own this Mazdaspeed Box. I only know of one other person to use one and he's on CR (Heldenzeit). I could be wrong and there maybe is more than the 2 (including mine) in the states.

It took me 3 years of hunting and stalking in the forums to obtain the opportunity to own one.

Mine came from Italy from a good man name Michele and after much pressuring to sell me the box, he decided so around xmas time. Pricing on the box was a lot for a box haha. But I'll shoot you a pm price wise as I don't think I'll ever sell it so rather not disclose the price. They are expensive

Welp, trouble in paradise and the car won't be done this weekend. The suspension wont be off the parts car and available for pick up until later this week.

So with that said. I was sad and decided to go impulse shopping and remembered I'd been meaning to pick up these from David (Iscariot), finally got around to stopping by and chatting with him about some stuff. Might make a couple more trips if things pan out.



Also excited for the summer portion of this build as I've slowly been collecting parts for phase II.

Finally got around to picking these up. I'm really excited to play with my controller and feel how well they adjust on the fly. I always wanted EDFC's when I had my MonoFlex.

Alignment is setup for 7:30am on Saturday and then it's gonna be a long day of road testing.

Yay, we are a dating site now

ROFL!!

[Munky]

I love my EDFC. Adjustment is quick and it's fun the hear to motors do their thing My gf loves it too because she doesn't like it stiff ;)

She doesn't like it stiff??? I'm appalled...lol


Update!!!!

Got finished putting the coils on at around 10pm Friday and woke up Saturday around 6:45 for finish dialing in the height. Right now I'm running factory body so no skirts or GV lip.



The car still has no sway bars...it's pathetic...I digress, so with out my Patrick swayzes, I head out to NTB to get my alignment and the car is running amazing. Revving very vibrantly and since I didn't have a hood fitted yet because of the intake, I could hear it all.

Drove up soon after to a buddies house so he could check it out in coming and we were able to get this picture from up about 20 feet in the air.



Right before leaving, I hard parked in a different position and was under a pretty tree so I was like typical hairdresser shot, why not. Captured this moment,



I still have lots left to do but hopefully with daylight savings, it will be easier to finish after work.

Sunday was an awesome day. I drove a total of 247 miles over the weekend on the fresh build. Not a skip expect for losing a vacuum cap. I drove up to AMP and saw some of the homies. Yes, it was I in the flesh, I'm not some bot lol. It was great getting a ride in Nicks car for three laps, that Minta was nutzzzz!!! Nick also has a crazy driver mod to the car that allows it to hawk down ZR1's and run away from turbo FRS's. That be it he was in "Rain dance" mode. Sad because we would have killed the MP4-12c that was putting around the track. Thanks for the ride. Got me ready to sign up for RA with James and barber with stetson
