Default Mazda 6 V6 Manual Sport

This is my baby, shortly there might be an RX-8 or a 350Z (more likely) parked in the drive. But unfortunately the only pics I have are far too large and aren't posted on the net. Dark Blue, and faster than a Mondeo ST220 without any modifications at all, and that's only a 5speed vs. the Mondeo's 6. (I know, not much of a car compared to an Impreza, but it's nice all the same)

I know I have already posted some piscs of my dear 'Dub, but it has changed a little since then

Before:



Now:









You can notice I didn't like the twin-lamp grille

Rims: Advan RG 14"
Tires: Bridegstone RE720
Brakes: Zimmermann discs and Pagid pads, but some Willwood 4 piston calipers on their way
What's next? Definitly some Bilstein Coilovers, it's far to high

That's pretty hard to say I bought them during a trip in Thailand (there is a very cool Autobacs shop in Bangkok, and an even cooler JUN garage I have the opportunity to visit ) but then I have to bring them back to France by plane, so I have to pay an "excess luggage" tax... At the end, around 150€ each, which is not too expensive for rims of such a quality

How much will the coilovers lower the car? IIRC, they won't lower it all that much.
BTW, nice car!

Oops, I am afraid I didn't use the right word, sorry. It's Bilstein shock absorbers with which you can adjust the height of the vehicle... I hope you see what I meant this time

So they are adjustable coilovers. Thats cool, they cost a small fortune though!

Looks like a cardboard cutout if i am correct

but then again it may not be

Anyway I own a white 1986 Mitsubishi Cordia GSR, which has a 4g62 non-intercooled turbo engine. its fairly stock at the moment and isnt that quick but handle quite well. The only front wheel drive i have ever driven that is so neutral in ballance.

Soon i will be putting in a 4g63 intercooled turbo from a galant vr4 and only weighing 950kgs and having over 200hp without mods it should fly

This is not my car but it looks exactly like this...
