I just bought my fd couple days ago and i feel in love with it FD. I love doing performance upgrades and spending money for parts...

I used to have Eclipse GSX 98, i had about 360whp and running 12.7@110 , i just sold it... Now i got my red FD and wanna do the same thing. I dont know much about rotary, performance, good online stores for parts, any basic upgrades, what i should do first, second, where to look for help etc... any help would be great...

Hope you know what you have got yourself into the FD is a great car! Although it is not cheap to modify. It can be a pain in the *** sometimes you just have to be patient and have some extra cash lying around. I actually have a separate bank account just for fixing my car. If you are able and willing the car is more rewarding than anything i have ever owned. Where are you located? I suggest you find a rotary shop near you, go check it out and make friends with the people there. (you will be seeing them quite a bit) The shop can help you with necessary mods to help the car handle the horsepower





OOH! FUEL DILIVERY SYSTEM! dont even think about modifying that car without doing some modifications to the fuel delivery system





Good luck with your car! Welcome to nopistons!



Oh, I am Jamie btw



here is my car

Yep i was thinking about that. I know that fuel delivery is most important thing. I also know a lot about dsm and with dsm was easy to decide what to buy and where to find any resourses. I'm having hard time finding the best EMS, fuel pump , injectors (store) etc..
