I built a LS1/FD and it is rad.
No I did not swap my red one I bought another one so yes I have two now before anyone bugs me about that. Seems like the money I saved on my shitty M5 coilovers went to good use.
Pics? Fuck No Ok well maybe a few

It would not have happened without all of you guys…and the chrome hammer
How and why it happened:
Well I have wanted a ls powered fd for quite some time and had an itch to get working on a car again. I found a nice donor car and got to work.
Then right away we started getting it ready to be painted
Then for whatever reason I decided to remove the entire interior(including dash now) to do some weight reduction, swap to black carpet, and clean everything real nice.
For another unknown reason I decided the entire suspension, subframe, EVERYTHING had to come off the car. After I got everything apart I had brilliant ideas such as I NEED STANCE COILOVERS! I NEED A FULL DELRIN BUSHING KIT and I NEED TO POWDECOAT EVERYTHING!!! as well as ss brake lines+ebc yellow pads. Which led to this:
BLING!!! (calipers sanded after to show mazda)
Here is some random progress shots:
I have been so busy with school I have not worked on it the last few weeks. Paint will be done soon this week I hope(black) Then I need to finish the interior and it is done mostly. I will get underhood shots once it is cleaned up some.
Motor is an 02 with 35k miles and as for mods just your classic cam-only Trex setup with a bottle if necessary.
