Basically 929/FC front strut susp and a 5 link panhard bar rear. 5x114 low offset fitment=Cool -Custom SERIALNINE/STANCE GR+ SS-D coilovers /camber plates in the front 10K springs. . .and APEXi T-max GTR front dampers/cut front camry springs (there's like 2 coils left) in the rear..Approx 7k springs 17x9 +14/18 Equips 215/225/45-17 tires . . .Soon to be full STANCE coilover rear as well, addco swaybars, full custom urethane, adjustable panhard bar, FD rack conversion. . -Recaro seats (out of some stock JDM car) Nardi wheels. small system. . -I plan to swap a GEN III (LS) motor into it this winter dunno wether i want stick or auto. . . . -Its my Cruiser/Hauler/Daily. . I can fit 4 ppl/2sets of rims, 4ppl/BMX's, bodykits/trannys/engines, etc, STILL have beats, AND look cool (to some ppl). . . great for f*cking too
-Yes I can actually drift it in the rain now with the normal tires on. (was on snows). . . . . f*ckin sh!tty OMGcantfigureoutwhatgeartobein auto tranny and extra open diff makes it difficult though. -More vids and pics soon. Cuz Im completely in love with it. . Ask Eric (Edub) and Matt (Green Goblin) . . Its pretty much all i talk about. .lol. -Total cost to date. . NOT including rims. . $1200 and tons of enginuity and free parts that i had laying around haha. .
Sorry bout the mess inside.. It is my daily. . Basically, as for looks im grabbing the JDM efini rear wing. And adding some sort of front aero as it looks pretty f*ckin lacking front the front. . The look just came about .. I took my equips off the 73 and had them sitting in my garage. . i was looking around for cheap 18's for the MPV but couldn't really find anything that i really like. was looking for some flush concave rims stockish looking .. basically just a fresher newer look.. When i took my snows off I just grabbed the Equips cuz they were in the way and tried them on. . f*ckin looked pretty good. . They are small (17's) but somehow it suits the van.. makes it look smaller and it IS lower to the ground. . kindof a VW type small rim look haha. . With the coilovers it handles pretty f*ckin awesome. . Flat cornering ,high speeds are f*ckin fun as sh!t, surprising people in sporty cars on the highway and through corners. . Honestly though with the 10K's in the front, its really f*ckin stiff. Not really sure why. . as it weighs 3800lbs. imma swap the front springs out for 8k's this week. . its just way too nuts in the city. . on any sort of sh!tty road. . its like hardcore . . and its SUPPOSED to be a comfy/sporty cruiser. . not a f*ckin hardcore coilovered racecar . . . So the story is. . . I've ALWAYS wanted one of these. . since my buddy had one when we were teenagers. . ALWAYS thought they looked cool. Box flares, super short overhangs, cute sloping front end, fully vertical back, cool sideskirt treatment. . and non existent JDM looking bumpers. . reminds me of a honda stepwagon ... but FR and fukcin cooler. . cuz its a mazda.. and blew me away that NOBODY thought they were cool. . FR platform. . easy to lower. . small outside/big inside. . so f*ckin dope. . Now i finally have one that is respectable. and gonna start another trend with it. . New Daily Van Style. . anyways.. hope you guys like it. . Few other pics.. Havent posted pics of my new rims.. got them a while ago.. MAE dish.. 18x9/10 +23 all round.. with 25mm spacer on the front. . 225/235-40-18. . lips are like 65/85mm or something. .. .Imma refinish them over winter . . paint the centers silver. . They came black.. so i just threw them on. . not really feeling it though. . Made an adjustable panhard bar for it.. so now the rear is centered.. Need to swap out the blown rear Apexi's for some proper STANCE's. . Planning to reconfigure the rear susp so I can get it lower and still have more travel.. The front has lots .. but is close to bottoming the tire on the inner under full compression. . f*ckin pics look high, but its pretty low in real life haha. . Total cost to date including the rims.. $1800 . . .
