Now it's time to fire this thread back up!
The wheels look great but I know 20s fit in there. They would more proportional to the size of the cosmo.
20's have no place on any car...
Although 20's look pretty dramatic on a Cosmo...IMO they are just too large for practicality, performance and proportion...If I were building an all out "custom" Cosmo show car with air suspension etc then I think 20's might be appropriate...Otherwise...Go smaller...(thumb)
Hey I just agree with your home country movie favorite where I saw a cosmo on 20s "Serious Fours and Rotaries" in Australia. One of the best jdm car movies I remember from back in the days.
Where can I find this movie...What's the actual title? Thanks in advance!
I have got a series II eccs version. I dont have that much lined up for it at the moment, so I am living vicariously through you! (headbang)
Series II ECCS..The all-out luxury version...Nice! (gotpics)
Seems you have been spotted at that show Antoine.................(rockon)
Photographer knows how to get the shot just right. This is poster material mate
REgards
Thanks for the heads up...Very nice shot indeed...I was actually standing next to the photographer when he took this shot...After I returned home from the show...I was uploading my own pics when I came across this sweet shot of my own ride! (thumb)
Yeah, that was me. Usually the best stuff is in the carpark.
Here's a few more from the show (will be uploading throughout the week):

Welcome and thanks again for taking and uploading a super sweet shot of my Cosmo! (2thumbs)
Nice color. My only gripe is that the rear wheel looks very distorted.
I noticed that as well...Must be the lens and or effect used to take the shot..?
whats the paint code for that cosmo color its gorgeous!?
Thanks...The color really is gorgeous...Deep and rich...I can't stop looking at it!
Good question...I want to find out myself when the time comes to give Pay2Play fresh paint...The color is a perfect match for the Cosmo's super slick exterior.
Someday, I'd like to give the Cosmo an exterior overhaul...Strip the paint...Make sure the body is in perfect shape and then get the best damn paint job I can afford using the current original factory color.
does the car have strong camber on the rears? I thought it might have been barrel distortion (not surprising with that lens), but it looks the same in tighter shots.
Nope...Stock camber I believe...In the photo above...It has got to be barrel distortion because the rear wheels are no where near that level of camber...Still a cool shot though! (thumb)
Hi Mazda fanatics,
I'm erwin from Belgium and also Mazda-crazy
You can check my website to look at the cars we have here, we have also 2 Cosmo's, a 13B 1992 type S, and a 20B 1991 type E-CCS, i have a question for Antoine, because it's very difficult for us here in Belgium to find OEM mazda parts for this cars, is it possible to get the part-numbers for the air-filter, brake pads, fuel filter,... from your local mazda dealer?
Thanks and best regards, erwin
Hello and Welcome, Erwin! (hi)
First of all...Thanks for joining the community and posting in my thread.
It's great to meet another Mazda/Cosmo fan...You've got two very nice looking Cosmos there (what's better than one Cosmo?..TWO!
).
As for part numbers...I can understand how difficult/frustrating it can be to find OEM parts...Even here in Japan in can be difficult. The next time I drop by my friendly Mazda dealer...I'll ask if they can provide part numbers for those parts.
Have you modified your Cosmos at all or are you just maintaining them in stock condition?
In anycase...Stay tuned to this thread and keep us updated your Cosmos!
Ps...Post a link to your website...
