Luv the new wheels, car looks great with them.

I think Phil is a street pharmacist! Straight up baller!

Alright.. For father's day, I had to go in to work for couple hours.. And thought I take the FD and test out the new TB and the wheel w/ 15mm front spacers.

RW TB - I did noticed a slight low end bog. But it was pretty slight. But the rev through seem bit faster.. it could be just my imagination though.

Wheels - I just love how they look on my MB. I have slight rub on the passenger side after 15mm spacer.. I'm going to find out where its hitting and try to fix it. But the stance is perfect!

Drivability with these wheels seem pretty good. I was coming back home and this M3 got behind me and started to follow.. I'm running about 10lbs of boost and through the twisty downtown hill side, the car felt great. Maybe bit better on turns... again, it could be my imagination as I been driving my daily TL and haven't driven the FD in about 2 weeks.


Here is another pic with my riced out LED lights on :)

Yes!! I admit, I'm a ricer at heart.. But at least I admit and also trying to build a classy FD (My SSM) :)

i dig LEDS. They really dont look bad.. maybe that means im a ricer too...

is it okay to ask what your brake setup is? those are the best looking rotors ive seen on stock brakes.

They are Mazda RZ rotors custom drilled by David Garfinkle. David does awesome job and I highly recommend him!! They are also harmonically balanced.

New Mirrors..

What mirrors are those Phil? That's awesome they fit over the stock holes, no need to have them filled in.

I like the LED lights too. I also like the HID turns, so nice and bright.

Look who made urbanracer.com...........again :)

Phil, your car is fantastic, especially with those new wheels. Great choice!

i'm not a huge fan of body kits, but i must say: this car is breathtaking! i guess the fact that it also happens to be my favorite factory color for the FD doesn't hurt either, but seriously, everything on this car is hot!!! i have to make special mention of the wheels, too.

Phil... any new updates on how you like the driveability of the RW TB? Also would like to know your ride heights (front and rear). Thanks!

Oh.. The TB..

Here is my impression.. I'm having bit of a start up issue when cold but mid to higher RPM the car feels bit more responsive. This could also be all in my head as I don't have better number.. also my UIM is ported out so that could also be the cause.

I'm going to tune the car a bit and turn up the boost a little when the weather get little bit cooler.

regarding ride height.. I have no clue. I'll try to measure that.

Car really looks incredible. Regarding David Garfinkle and his cross drilling service, did he actually drill all of your holes, or just chamfer the existing ones?

I loooooove the interior

its a really nice combo: spirit R gauge cluster, bucket seats, nardi wheel...

Perfect
