Pretty sweet! Where did you source the diffuser, and how much did it run you? I might have done a single exit turn down through that hole in the middle of the diffuser. Then you could mount some...

I like how it caries that line on the hood in a continuous ark around the front and under the emblem location. But I think the rest of the lines are a bit too soft and rounded. The rest of the...

Since nobody asked, my dream for an STI version would be a flat 6 with a rear mounted transaxle.

They actually picked the RX-8 two years ago. They have recently modified their testing "matrix" to favor feel more than raw numbers. I think the FR-S will place high, probably in the top 3.

I disagree. All of the pieces are significantly different. I like the Five axis front lip, side skirts and rear valance, but would prefer the TRD spoiler.

Very nice!!! It looks like the driver starts out a bit slow, but I was very impressed with the 180's and 360's towards the end. Especially that last one. He was crazy tight to that cone.
