I hate the splitters or whatever they are called, the little carbon bits on the front bar - TERRIBLE.

Rest of the car though

[kula]

best at wakefield on the street rubber is 1:17 for me..
i reckon a better driver may be able to do a 15 or so..

needs more powarr!

[kula]

not sure, will see how it handles 6-8psi first ;)

Of all the cars presently displayed in this section yours would have to get my vote Kula. It looks great, no doubt goes even better and that last action shot is truly amazing.
As a matter of interest how much weight does a carbon fibre bonnet save?

[kula]

i didn't weigh it before installing, but it definitely felt lighter, my guess would be 1-2kgs.

some are heavier due to the amount of fibreglass there is behind it, but mine is very thin, and has almost no bracing underneath.

i really need to take a pic of it and i will eventually.

also fitted the manualised Power steering rack the other day, made it a bit nicer:)

Holy crapoly that's one nice car.

Where'd you source the AWD face from? I'd quite like a set

[kula]

Got em from Mr Dewa in Japan, which was a bit of a story in itself..

So I spotted them in a Road&Ster magazine, and thought, yeah nice, I want them. So on one work trip to Tokyo, our translator in Japan calls AWD and says we would like a set.

Dewa-san says, sure, give me an address.

Our trans asks, \"what about payment? How would you like it?\"
Dewa-san responds, \"its ok, take them first, if you like them then you can pay me.\"

a day or so later they come, wrapped in the most immaculate packaging I've ever seen. So much care was taken, and everything was individually wrapped, taped and wrapped again, I was totally blown away.

Needless to say, we paid him quickly.

A year or so later a forum-ite met up with Dewa-san, and gave him the story I did on his faces in Auto Salon Magazine, it apparently brought him to tears. He was honoured that his humble work was in an international publication.

Just one reason why I love Japan.

That forumite was I

[kula]

yeah post your pics!

[marcusus]

Dammit! Must.. go... to... Japan...

I'd be almost tempted to buy two sets just in case

Aussie ones go to 220? JDM go to 180.

Dewa make faces which go on top of the factory ones, for both 220 and 180 speedos. the ones i liked and bought were only for the 180kmh so i got a JDM instrument cluster from mx5mania.

I popped it open, replaced the dials with the AWD ones, and roberts my fathers brother. Yes, the pointers were rotated slightly, but they all read true, I used a GPS to check that the speedo was still accurate. and it does go up to 190-200km/h

he makes a massive range of various faces, for both NA and NB, even RX8 as well, and I think NC now.
