    Identity Revealed – New and Old Pictures of my car

    Here’s a few pics of my car that I just scanned. Quality is not that good but I still like them Any comments are more than welcome.

    Here’s a few shots of the interior. These pictures are about 2 years old. Since then I’ve installed new front 6.5” speakers, an MSP shifter with Sparco knob, Momo pedals and a few other goodies.




    These were taken right after my Tokico struts were installed. Combined with the Eibach springs it’s a very nice combo.





    Here’s a pic of my custom rear tie-bar. Nice and shiny.



    Engine compartment (CAI, RX-7 VAF, Gude Header, Custom Strut bar, Custom battery tie-down, custom fitted oil cap):



    92-94 Tails with a 323 garnish:


    My new set of wheels:



    Here’s what’s waiting to be installed:





    This and many more modifications coming in 2004. As always, I’ll keep you guys posted!

          The switches are probably one of the hardest things I had to do. There was so much wiring and detailed cutting involved that I don't even want to go back and think about it. The project took me about 2 weeks to complete. The switches are for my fog lights, radar, interior lights, exterior lights, subs and I got a few that will be put to use in the very near future.

          Oh yeah, and the Sony speakers do suck.....no question about it.

                            The seat cover is long gone. It kept the seat clean for a few years, that was it's sole purpose.

                            The paint was some special interior paint that I got from a local 'import' shop. Don't remember the name as that was a while ago, but a can of it was about $25. Not cheap, but definately of good quality.

                            As for the wheels, my bro got them but I can't remember the price. It was around $750. Didn't like them that much at first but they grew on me so much that I like them as much as the white ones now.

                            Here's a few other pics of the wheels:

                              identity, i love your pro man! 1st gens in harbour blue are the nicest
                              i think i might trade in the ol 323 for a pro, only problem is harbour blue proteges around here are nearly non-existant.
                              in need of a drop, and a BP.


                              this is one 323, you dont wanna mess with
