I'm not a Mazda fan but the car ain't bad lookin'.

I understand the stripes thing. My friends pressured me into making "team stickers" so we could feel important.

Any stripes on any car made after 1990 looks like ****... with exception to the gt-40

Dropping in

Well guys, how's things going. It has been a few months since I last came around. I have been really busy with work, Dish Network has me working 12+ hour days and my car and I are loving the $$$.

I hate to stray you loyal SVXer's away for the moment, but I just wanted to drop off a few new pics of the MSP. Owning this car and modding it has shown me that the SVX is actually very cost efficient to build into better performance.

The first 4 pictures still show the car with the stripes. They have since been taken off.






Since those pictures, the car has gone through a few changes cosmetically.
The next two pictures show what the car looked like with just the front suspension altered. I swapped out the Racing Beat springs with a set of Intrax Lowering Springs off of a 1st generation Ford Probe GT.



At this time I smoked out the taillights as well, which IMO, really sets off the way the car looks.



A few days later we dropped the back of the car with more Intrax goodness.



I think that is about it. The mod list is as follows.
FMIC
HKS SSQV blow off valve
MAF sensor relocated to prevent stalling and hesitation
Gutted Cats
Cut out exhaust installed
Intrax lowering springs
Short ram intake.

Mods to come.
Custom built cams
T3/T4 turbo
Mazda 626 style manifold with T3 flange
Forged pistons and sleeves
5 port valve job

Planing to bump up from 10psi to around 15-18psi and looking to produce about 250 WHP.

Thoughts?
