Well, I just sold my vert!

I ended up trading the guy for these parts:

S5 turbo (ported)
RTEK 1.7 ECU
RC 750cc injectors
Greddy Type RS blow off valve


Then, I ordered some modded steering knuckles from DCWFC3S on the evil forum. These give way more angle when you turn. The benefits are better maneuverability in tight spaces like parking lots, and the ability to countersteer further before spinning out. The FC has a very low angle of steering at full lock, so if you go sideways, you can easily spin out. With these, I can drift all day long and not have to worry about hitting full lock.

Here's a pic:




And I just recieved some stuff from Mazdatrix as well:

Rear transmission cross member (broken center bushing was causing high rpm vibrations)
Exedy Stage 1 Street clutch kit (Clutch disk, pressure plate, Throwout bearing, pilot bearing, etc)
Rear main seal
Transmission driveshaft seal
Turbo transmission pan seal
Speedometer gear oring
Spedometer gear seal
OMP o-ring
New intake gaskets
transmission shifter centering spring
MAP sensor restrictor pill (removed emissions)


All these parts ended up totalling me $180, plus $80 for the clutch kit, and on top of that, the OMP oring and rear main seal didn't even get here with my order, had to call M.T. and get them shipped overnight delivery, lol.

Pics of the goodies to come soon!
