I was toldn because mazda didnt want to taint the name of the rotory so it waqs kind of a deterrant from going to far in tuning the FC andbody got any better ideas?

Never heard of a Turbo with 4 lug, was it a factory turbo, and im guessing it didnt have 4 piston brakes? verts have 'heavy duty' suspension which gets the 5 lug wheels, 4 piston brakes

they did it bc the series 4 and series 5. s4 4 lug. s5 5 lug. ok maybe not but maybe so
