DAT510 Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Sr in FC... Basturd :lol: Looks exactly the same as my FC... Except with a better engine :D Never would of guessed ford and Mazda lug patterns are the same let alone those wheels being crown Vics... Moar oics!!! Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 So, I'm going to attempt to bring this thread back. About to start changing shit up. Getting bored with this look. Thinking about getting rid of the whale tail.... as conventional as they look I'm considering a BRE or MSA style wing. Ended up pulling the KA again and tubbing the FC and painting the engine bay. About to finish painting the rest of the car black too. Quote Link to comment

ComicArtist Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Yezzir. Made some boso pipes yesterday, threw em on, I think I'm feeling em. I've got an old oil cooler out in the parts pile, thinking about throwing that on there too. And I'm going to be looking for a different wing soon. Also, went and saw the Katy Perry movie last night. FUCKING AWESOME Quality cinema. Hollywood at it's best. Quote Link to comment
that one guy Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Dude... I'll trade you my wing for yours.... Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 What wing do you have? Quote Link to comment
that one guy Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 I believe an msa type 1 Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Hm, I might. I'd really like to keep this wing around, it's kinda rare and I'd hate to get rid of it. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Im digging the way it looks... I say keep that wing. Loving the pipes. I probably would have cut 45s into the ends though and made them two different lengths, but thats just me. Looking good! :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
that one guy Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I'd have to agree with Tristin, that wing really only looks good on your car. It'd look like crap on mine :rofl: I'd just say rock it, and get a better paint job :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted August 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Thanks! I might keep it, I'm undecided right now. Looking for a tsuriwa if anyone has any authentics laying around haha Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 I just had two of them... I kept one and gave one to a buddy. I can probably get more if youre interested. Quote Link to comment
Josh K. Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 May I ask WHY? Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Because hes a bosozoku baller... duh. Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Keep the wing,,, you'll regret getting rid of it ( selling ). If you crave "change" ,,, do something with those tailights/tailight panel clear across ... May I suggest a different style of tailight setup ? maybe a shave/fit is in order ? maybe a de-attachable replacement panel ? Can even think about taking off the wing while this mad-scientist creation brews ,,, haha. who knows ,, just some idear's thrown out ! :) Quote Link to comment
DAT510 Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Wait.. What year is your FC? the hatch is totally different than mine, yours must be later or something. Quote Link to comment
Josh K. Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Because hes a bosozoku baller... duh. To each his own. Quote Link to comment
sedition88 Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 I'm loving this car, badass! Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted August 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Thanks! Tristan, are they real or replicas? How much would two run me? My FC is an 88, are you sure yours is different? All the FC's shared the same hatches Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 100% real buddy. I have a friend in the Japanese transit authority (or whatever they call it over there) so they are able to "acquire" them for me. The two I got were brand-new for a refurb they were doing on one of the lines (probably because everyone was steeling the handles lol) Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 The legit ones in use atm have a plastic lanyard not woven. I was over there the entire month of April. You can buy those BS ones with woven lanyards in stores. You can get the more Legit plastic lanyard style ones on Amazon Japan, as I did for a friend while there. That said though does it matter? People here dont know shit besides what they see in forums lol. One handle is just as good as another if your hanging it of the back of your ride..... Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Yes most are the full vinyl lanyard style though not all. I too was just in Japan (beginning of December) and not all were that style. They have been making the transition to all vinyl as they say theyre more resistant to bacteria and easier to clean; the woven keeps dirt easier. Thats why you can see that Goki had all those with leather straps. The pores in the leather kept a lot of dirt and bacteria from everyone touching them all the time. Quote Link to comment
