muffler with twin tips looks very sexy.
the bodywork is in reall good shape! the sedan has heaps of space under the boot compared to a hatch. my timing is somewhere around 15-17 BTDC. it is right on the limit and is a little poo poo at low rpms. love the look of the rear pod thingos. never really did before. but they are growing on me. might have to get some since i got a front lip. needs (only cos i am a annoying opinioned d@#k):- flying M mazda badges. metal bit on front lip painted. clear side indicators, the smoked looks out of place. moar!!! camber!!! |
Thanks Ryan :) yer y timing is at 8 ATM but I really like how much power I have down low... Was really surprised.. Will change it when I get back and I stall the cams ;)
|
Nice. Will have a photo shoot when mines clean!

in sept 97, the badges on BAs went from the old style to the current style. bonus is that there are current style badges available for BAs if you have a 94-97 model. |
