Link to the most lack-luster build in MR history
"True Form" is me and my buds racing/car club we started 10 years ago.... TF for life!
Took the car for a spin today to test out the bikini top and I love it. It keeps the sun off but gives you the feel of a convertible, highly recommended.
this build is awesome. makes me want my car done already so much more
The War Machine build thread: http://mazdaroadster.net/showthread....R-MACHINE-quot
Thanks SpeedWorks.
Took the car in today and got an alignment: -2.5 Front and -2.0 rear with zero toe front and rear. I had a fucking blast driving the turd on the street, floor it everywhere. Supposedly my AK carbon hood will be here tomorrow.....
That's funny. I just saw this thread. My car is exactly yours with the gt3rs look except I went reverse my body is dark and my wheels are green. My roll bar is green to match the wheels and the stitching on my interior is green also. My tow hooks are also green.
The one thing you forgot to do is a center exhaust like the gt3. I did mine and love it. Really changes the back of the car.
Nice look though. I love it.
Hey Butcher you have a build thread? I wanna see your car.
Mini update time: Well I finally got my AK hood last Friday, it fits alright. It is about a 1/4" short width wise between the head lights compared to the OEM hood. I'm not really feeling the carbon fiber so I am gonna spray it green sometime. I installed the Aerocatch pins last night, nothing like cutting up a brand new hood! I dig the shit out of those things, I wanna put them on everything.
Hood
Ordered up some MS motor mounts from corksport, my old ones are toast.
Green bolts also came in over the weekend.
I finally drove the car up to my house (I have been working on it at my parents shop for months now), It feels good to have her home.
Longtime no update, I have been tying up some lose ends on the green weenie as of late. Major accomplishment was I painted the engine bay gray to match interior and trunk (no more red). I replaced the radiator, cap, silicone hoses and added a garage star rad panel for the cooling department. I also made a cheap ass intake, gonna build a heat shield soon. Oh how could I forget I replaced my old shitty busted motor mounts with some mazda comp pieces (best mod done to car so far). On the interior I am gonna be replacing the drivers seat with a Recaro pole postion next month (buying from brother) and I added a NRG QR today.
The bay painted finally! Do mind the color on the VC it is not permanent.
New QR.
Still need a shorty console.

WOW, that looks AMAZING! Great choice of wheel! Beautiful car!!!
What header?
OBX Header purchased from Ebay.
Do you happen to know how it compares to the jackson racing 4-2-1 header
Not sure, I imagine the Jackson is a better piece all around. I paid $189 shipped for the OBX unit.
Update: My brother in-law is in the process of parting out his Sti so I decided to scoop up his Recaro SPG for the green weenie. I first mounted the seat to stock sliders but it was way to high so I ordered up a Garage Star seat rail. The GS piece is awesome in both fit and finish, so many adjustments (highly recommend).
