    I was under the same impression. Mine is the slightly revised version, there are some subtle differences compared to the early models, maybe they changed the brakes too.

        on a side note, this brake discussion is very interesting. Jack's right, sh*t should be stuck.

                Not until its proven and we've reached a clear consensus on what is actually factual.

                  Not great ones yet... Gimme a few weeks on some nice shots. I'm leaving to Taborville MO on monday, when I get back, I'll insure and plate it so I can get some cooler pics.

                  For now these will work...

                    Love the wagon! I would love it more with a gtr bumper.

                      Meh, I really want the Mazdaspeed type b bumper. It would complete the look. For now the leather wrapped LTS bumper is going to have to work. I may settle for a 2.5RS bumper if I cannot source a type b.

                      Thanks for the compliments guys. It's been a real struggle to get this one ready and sorted. It's been through a lot in the last year and 3 months. In no particular order; Spun rod bearing, hailstorm, broken bumper twice... once by a civic in a parking lot, once when an elk stepped on it, the entire SPI to KLDE turbo swap, Disk swap, MX3 widetrack, 4 different sets of coilovers, a ton of work to fit the headlights to the grille and corners, bad engine harness, Moved from an apartment, to a friends house, to my parents house and finally to mine when I finally bought it, tons of wiring, seat swaps galore, three leaking radiators... and a ton of other crap.

                      Now I get to relearn Megasquirt! I can't wait to just drive it again!

                          I was going to mention the type b as well as the GTR, but I've had a few drinks and couldn't remember the name of it.
