Slugoid's black NA6

Postby Slugoid » Fri Feb 15, 2008 4:14 pm

Well here's my black (but red at heart, so it goes just as fast :P ) NA6. I acquired it around November 2005 with 115,800km on the clock.

This is the pic I took when I first got it. Nothing has changed at all on the outside as such, besides some smoked indicators

Modifications:
- Genuine Mazda hard top with demister
- Momo steering wheel (smaller in diameter than stock Momo)
- Aus spec Tein SS
- Superpro bushes (front, rear and sway links)
- RDA slotted front rotors
- Stock brakes with Hawk HP Plus front pads, Racebrake Comp2 rear pads
- Tanabe G-medallion exhaust
- Exedy Sports Tuff HD clutch
- 16X7\" SSR Integral rims, with 205/45 Goodyear F1 GS-D3's all round
- Front struct brace (with integrated master cylinder stopper), front and rear lower chassis brace
- Timing advance (14 degrees)
- 24mm Front Whiteline adjustable swaybars
- Stock rear swaybars

Interior/exterior:
- Lancer Evo Recaro seats (similar to the Recaro Cross Speed series)
- JVC KD-G615 head unit
- Team Voodoo shift knob
- KG Works instrument panel
- Smoked side indicators

Misc:
- Boags GBII Nozzle :P
- Speed Bleeder (very useful)

Pics:
1st pics of my car
Me at Winton Raceway

Well, this car has been through a lot. Numerous track days at Winton, 2 trips to the Island, DECA and countless mountain runs. Sad to say, I'll be letting it all go mid this year as I'm going overseas. Stay tuned!

For the first time ever, I've finally got something not performance related for my car. Here's a sneak peak

Poor man's Rays \"Time Attack\" series :P .

Vitals: 15X6.5 35+ offset

Tyres will be put on by Friday, and hopefully they'll match the car :P :? :shock:

Nice rims!! Saw that stripe special from buddy club a while ago but decided to pass, not enough offset for me. Look great though. Love the seats too.

Well, rims are finally on!

Some quick shots:

Was worried that they might not match the car, but I think it worked out alright :) . Would love to see these on a red car, as I think they will also match it.

Edit: New pics! Removed those red and yellow dots on tyres, added some tyre shiner, and lowered it a little more

Very sleek, nice.

Put some shiner on the tyres and take some artistic shots 8) (before they get gutter rash, hehe j/k)

Sad to hear you have to sell it.

Thanks :)

It will be sad selling the car, and looking at the new pics now makes me even more reluctant to sell :( . Else, I plan to leave the car with my friend, who owns a Silvia S14 but has a soft spot for my car ever since he drove mine :P .
