You guys are so kind. I greatly appreciate your votes and I have spent my own money on this, meaning I got no paychecks for two years. lol. I s*** you not. But I maybe shouldn't be part of this. I really want the other enthusiasts who really bust their asses to get the credit.
I have worked very hard but am not competing the vehicle anymore so that the other kids can have the opportunity. We will continue to do our support for Mazda and run events up here in NorCal for them, but I'm semi-retiring. just want that damn GIALLA VENTED CF HOOD. hehe. Hint hint Group buy.
I do like knowing that the car is still highly revered. Thanks so much guys. Those pics are nice.

I think that's all I've done. I just want the hood and we'll finish up on power stuff. Porting wastegate and getting this to 14psi daily on 91. Lower Comp pistons if needed. Then we autox, drag, and roadrace this b****. I'll even do a little togue once in a while with the sway bar set real stiff and system removed. hehe. Boy does that car swing.
Thanks guys,
Rishie
i'll see if I forgot anything. I'm waiting for that Hood and actually an Endless 6pot mini Two piece rotor big brake system. Then it's done. lol.
Total spent should be near $21,000.00 buckaroos in retail mods. All good product, nothing was compromised. the car takes out WRX's with my full audio system.
