so 17's fit do you know if they rub or if its a smooth ride or any thing ?

Bigger wheels means stiffer ride.The guy with the GSL-SE on 17's says he dropped it down 2" and still doesn't rub.His wheels and new paint bring that stock body back to life.

Viperx7 what mods do you have on your car its beautiful i want my car to look something like that your car is so saweet https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif i have fallen in love but im painting mine black and do you think i could fit 17's on it or only 16's ?

Sorry it took so long to answer. Been kinda busy with our "Desert Excursion" https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/cool.png

Basically just about everything on the car has been re-done in one way shape or form. The engine is a large street port Turbo engine/transmission. Full 3" exhaust and downpipe. FMIC. 6-puck clutch. A-pilar/console gauges. Full body kit with custom nose. All polyeurethane bushings. 15x7 Snypers.

You could fit 17"s. I gotta friend with a set. But as stated you'll need an SE suspension, unless you've got the money to have some special made. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

There's more to come soon. Got a few more engine mods to go. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Hey Mike,

these are some pieces of the roof that I would rather replace new than fix, do you reckon mazda would have em?? and if yes, do you know the part numbers? I looked but wasn't exactly sure, the diagrams weren't too good.

Drifter,You might need to go hunting at a wrecker for the sunroof surround.That one has seen better days.Where is that other piece from?

Luis

Thats part of the sunroof too. One of the interior metal panels. Theres like 4 or 5 interior metal panels all spot welded in holding the sunroof together. And most of mine are rusted. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png

That inner surround is spot welded in about 20 places, I dont think I can get a used one without it getting/being damaged, I need to either go new or fix it myself.

I hope Mike has a part number for you then. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/unsure.png

You mean I have to get the whole roof?? I thought maybe I could just get that inner pannel part?
