We do indeed...I'm definitely a fan of Adele.

I ordered a whole bunch of parts last week. I hope they come in this weekend so I can get started on the insight rear drum swap and break ground on my "secret" side mirror project.

BTW, removing the rear wiper and front wiper assemblies comes out to almost 10 lbs. I think the rear looks much cleaner without it, and the front "retard" wiper is essentially worthless...battery swap is another easy 8 lb savings. That's 20 lb right there.

The bumper done up like such looks as though it has a Mugen happy face.

Amanda don't say never, nothing but 5~10 minutes of your time to at least lose 65+ lbs and add back as needed. hint hint It's the easiest way to lose and gain weight back in an absolutely effortless way.

Yeah, if I didn't haul kiddos around everyday, I might would think about it--or if I had a real garage to store the seats in.

It looks nice and different. It seems like Mazda BIG smile.

Mazda?!?! Come on, it's a Honda, it should remind you of the Honda Snisen and Honda Integra R front bumpers done up by Mugen with their smiling faces. They came out quite a few years before the Mazda smile.

I love the Mugen DC5R kit. I was a fan of the DC5R as well, but it gets donkey punched by the FD2R. Guess it's cause of the weight of the Integra?


As long as we're posting pics of bad ass cars...

mirrors look to tiny, if they were like 1/2 the size of the oem i think it would look better.

Pics are somewhat misleading...Compared to stock, they're:
- 80-90% of the depth
- 40% of the height
- 100% of the width

{img}Feel's FD2R K24A beast{/img}
That thing in person...
When it went out on its own at Nikko, damn that K24 screamed a very intoxicating scream. I just wanted to take it out for myself. I'll always love and miss my old 5R, it was a stripped out track car on the streets that had no business on the street , but the FD2R is even more goodness.
