Looks great Ken! Thats a nice subtle look..not too overly aggressive. A lot of people really like front ends like the Amuse, but I personally feel that it's too much.

You've made some very tasteful choices, and I for one give you the seal of approval!:tup:

A lot of people get there on Wednesday like I always do.

The Event is called ZdayZ

at Fontana Village. :tup:

Juruki 05-23-2011 06:42 PM

The mines came ready to install and fits like a glove on the factory spoiler. The only sucky part was drilling the holes :P

Fire 05-23-2011 09:16 PM

Juruki what size spacers did you use? They look nice. Mine are 20's front and rear.:tiphat: Thanks Papo I did a search and found it LOL Do they do a cruise through the tail of the dragon? Whoops found that too LOL. It is listed in the drop top cruise.

nynhex 05-23-2011 09:39 PM

Spent way too much money today buying Berk HFCs and a Berk CBE. This thing is going to be a beast.. Or at least sound like one.

c41006 05-23-2011 09:42 PM

^ Nice

happytheman 05-23-2011 10:00 PM

Hey Juruki...those spacers are lookin sweet!

What'd you do w/ you aftermarket wheels? Don't see too many folks going from 20's back to OEM 19's.

Edit: nice looking house too! :)

Drex 05-23-2011 10:32 PM

Red__Zed 05-23-2011 10:38 PM

Finally got it all the way back from ZdayZ. Need to arrange a bath tomorrow.

20mm front and 25mm rear spacers :tup:
My SSRs were burnt in a fire while they were repairing them... Long story, I'm getting a new set but it's probably gonna take 3 months or more so I bought spacers while I wait for them.

Sorry to hear that Juruki. Are your replacements going to have the same offset as stock? Keep us posted on your replacements.

Oooooohhhh yeah... I remember the thread a couple of weeks back. You were considering not paying the 3k for the repair...and I recommended leaving it be because you're getting a new set out of the deal anyways (which is better than any repair IMO)!

Anyways, your ride's looking great!:tup:

Please refrain from posts like these. You ruin it for the rest of us who are actually smart enough to know that driving like you did on the streets is idiotic and dangerous not only to yourself but other drivers and passersby.

In addition, your driving style will ultimately lead to all of us paying much higher insurance rates.:icon14:

You are an idiot. Why did you buy a 370 if your just gonna rag on it and risk destroying it along with yourself acting like a tool! I use to street race until I got in a wreck and almost killed myself and two high school kids on a date. You need to make smarter decisions. Ya big dummy!!!

he must be from the mazdaspeed forum. they all talk like that from the quick read. :rofl2:

Fire 05-24-2011 11:36 AM

Man take it easy on the guy. He probably didn't know that roadracing posts are not allowed here. TJ watch your posts if your unsure if you should post something look at the rules posted by the admin. Look forward to more legal posts from ya TJ.:hello:

That's not the point. The point is that he shouldn't be street racing and glorify it.

I used to be on the Mazdaspeed forum and I tend to agree with you. It's all about street racing and making your car fast enough to eat telephone poles.

Honestly, I didn't bother to read the rules yet I knew it was common sense. That being said....

An anecdote at Zdayz was that a crew of Z drivers were pulled over by law enforcement, and the officer said that he didn't care if we sped as long as we stayed on the right side of the double yellow.

That seems to have been the prevailing wind, as the only speeding ticket I heard of at Zdayz was 30+ miles away in Bryson City.

kenchan 05-24-2011 01:54 PM

nynhex- lol :D

so i ordered up a spare 4pcs set of titeks today. :p

never know wat happens so just going to keep these extra's at all times. :tup:

The forum rules state that we shouldn't discuss illegal activity, which includes speeding, street racing, blowing stop lights, etc...

sure...

point in case

Oh, I agree they shouldn't have posted a "kill" like that. It's against forum rules.

My post stated you rarely get the car over 50mph. Did I mention what the posted limit was?

Nothing in mustang's post said he was doing anything illegal. Just said something was terrifying.

Edit: and instead of posting an insult, why not report their posts if you object to it so much? Is it because you'd rather :stirthepot:?

shadoquad 05-24-2011 02:10 PM

Also, KB, to avoid further derailing this thread, if you have any problems with me personally, may I suggest we handle it in PM's? I promise I won't turn it into a flame war as long as you don't.
