I like it, it's different from the common colors such as red and black. Plus I do like the gold/red combination. What did you use to paint the caliper? Looks pretty close to the shade of Mazdaspeed gold I been looking for my wheels.

model paint? Really? Huh.

Caim 02-19-2009 07:27 PM

Yes sir hahaha. A few nice coats of that and you are good to go... and it is cheap.

rotorhead87 02-19-2009 07:29 PM

what GTFO model paint!?!? Now its officially different. You actually paint it on with that little brush...someone must have had a day off :)....Thanks for posting up the paint color code. Now I gotta look for 1/2 gallon of that stuff lol.

Caim 02-19-2009 07:33 PM

Those wheels look great. Nice car.

I prefer black look for the brake calipers. Are you going to upgrade the rotors and pads eventually?

looks cool! Let us know how the paint holds up!

Yeah i have the hawk pads but i plan on getting some new rotors first before i do them. Just want to do both at the same time. Money is tight because i am only 23 and in college. But i do what i can with the little money that i have.

HA - I wouldnt care, only my dog isn't tall enough, lol.

Nice rubicon in the back there too. Seems that RX guys always have a Jeep around somewhere...

Caim 02-20-2009 02:24 PM

A little story to it is i got the turbo and it was blown had to send it off, and finally got it back 2 months later.

My turbo progression from stock to now.

WE3RX7 02-20-2009 04:32 PM

The progression on turbos doesnt look even, lol. Small, Smallish, HUGE.

Should be fun. Just curious, why the big step up - what power output are you looking to get?
