Your speed will have a two little subaru's?

 

[MM BOOST]

Yep, exactly. Was it that obvious?

Tsk Tsk...I am talking about the wheels on the subaru in front

*EDIT* he just replied, all sold out of the cosmic blue ones

 

[MM BOOST]

Alright a little update....got a buyer for my greddy rs blow off valve and will be ordering a polished forged one soon as the money clears and running 2 shims and blue spring. I want a blow off valve with less adjustabilitly and proven to work with this specific car in recirculation.

Also, soon as money clears at the school, I am ordering these wheels:

They are TSW Asan's, brand new release for 2009 and I've only found them for sale on one site. They are 18x8" +45 offset and I will be running 235/40/18 tires and also doing red calipers to match the red stripe on the wheel. I think this wheel will go perfect with this car because of the red accent stripe matching the red accents on the interior of the car. Should be a nice, stylish wheel. Pics coming soon

Ummmmm that bolt pattern wont work

 

[MM BOOST]

its just the picture I had of it, it comes in 5 spokes too. It don't matter anyways, I found a different wheel to use.

 

[A louie]

Don't get the tsw's

 

[MM BOOST]

Don't get the tsw's

I'm not, decided they are too busy.

Here is a little preview of what is being ordered next friday, the 20th

 

[Sliver5]

thats better than the TSWs!

 

[MM BOOST]

I know. and actually I found out today, I might be ordering the wheels tomorrow. I am really excited. The dealer I am getting them from has a set of these set aside for me, just waiting on payment. I think im gonna bump up and run 235/40/18's on the front and the 245/40/18's on the rear to balance the car a little more and better traction.

I just finished ordering a custom one-off color brake caliper color from G2 paint caliper kits and also ordered black mazdaspeed decals. Should have a nice custom look behind the wheels. I am excited to see how it turns out.


edit:

and I just ordered some yellow lamin-x fog light covers! Slowly but surely coming together!

 

[MM BOOST]

Alright fellas...update time. Ordered the wheels. Decided against the rota's with money being the main concern and plus worried about rubbing with a 9 inch wheel in the rear. The best part is...I ordered the wheels this afternoon and they have already shipped, they arrive next wednesday. Tires are being ordered friday. The wheels I decided on are 18x8 +45 audi RS4 replica style wheels in solid gloss black. Always had an infatuation with these wheels, so I found a set that would work on my car. I am ordering 235/40/18 tires friday. Everything goes on next weekend. Also ordering a Corksport Downpipe and Darkstar Turbo Inlet tomorrow...pretty pumped about more power!!

So to sum everything up, in 2 weeks time, I will have the following installed along with new pics:

-18x8 +45 DXR V2's in Gloss Black
-235/40/18 Nexen N3000
-Grabber Orange/Gold calipers
-Black mazdaspeed decals for calipers
-custom black mazda center caps
-lamin-x yellow fog covers
-independent fog light mod
-black front mazda emblem
-Turbo XS downpipe
-Darkstar Turbo Inlet
-bluebatmobile smoked rear reflectors

Here is a photoshop of the wheels:

This is the look I am going for with the calipers:

Thoughts/opinion/feedback is welcome!

 

[abovie3]

i think its gonna look great. alot of people are iffy with accent colors and wheel color choice for the cosmic blue. but i think the gloss black with the orange is going to look awesome. maybe even do something with the lugnuts to add a little extra color..

 

[MM BOOST]

Yea see I am holding off on the lugs because I don't know what is going to look best. I was thinking of just doing black lugs, but I am not sure? what you think?

 

[abovie3]

black lugs would be nice, but would get "lost" in a black wheel, they would be hidden. now it is a good look but orange lugs to match the calipers would really pop from the black of the wheel.

 

[MM BOOST]

yeah but the thing I would be worried about is the orange from the lugs not matching the orange from the calipers, because the color I got is a custom color, ya know? The cool thing is gonna be when the car is rolling....the orange calipers glowing behind the solid black wheels.

 

[abovie3]

yes very true. and a rolling shot like the one you have posted with the orange calipers would be secks. (hump)

 

[MM BOOST]

I will see what I can do after everything is completed. Keep your eye on my thread. Its going to be a unique speed 3 to say the least

 

[abovie3]

cant wait to see. sub'd.

 

[MM BOOST]

I'll update soon as everything is ready to be photographed my friend.

A slight change...I am talking with Lestat and I will be purchasing his corkspork downpipe and corksport short ram intake with turbo inlet. So I will be taking the injen intake off and selling that soon Anyone interested?
