My philosphy on mods
Rotaryman's 1987 Mazda RX-7 when it comes to improving any car is to work from the outside in, and in a dichotomous fashion. Many people jump to the motor with little or no reguards to wether or not thier car can handle it. What is the use of power if you can't control it? so I believe that all mods must be paired each with that complement each other. This is where the dichotomy of my phylosphy come into play, for example, if you mod your intake or exhaust, you should also mod your tires or suspension to the same degree, should you have to pick an order the tires should come first. If you were to add forced induction, improve your brakes, making the brakes the first to come.
It may be dissatisfying to choose a mod that doesn't give you power over one that does, but safety is something that we all must consider not only for yourself but the people around you. Last thing we want is some fool get in an accident or worse hit someone and make our friends in blue (who we all love) crack down on us even harder than they already are. But enough of my rant, don't want to bore you all.

Current Modifications Accomplished
Electronics: El Cheapo Ground Wires.
Sparkies: NGK Platnum Plugs.
Cooling: Koyo Alum. Radiator w/ Evans NPG+ collant.
Suspension: Energy Suspension HyperFlex Polyurethane Bushing Kit.
Bouncies: Suspension Technique performance springs and KYB AGX shocks/Struts.
Rubber: Kumho Ecsta ASX on stock rims.
Air: El cheapo Cone Filter Adaptor.
Lights: S5 JDM Taillights.

Future Mod List
Stoppies: PowerSlot rotors, Hawk HPS Pads, Goodridge SS brakelines.
Intake: Custom High-Flow TID supporting ACCEL Kool Flow Kit.
Exhaust: Racing beat Catback System.
Wires: Magnacore 10mm plug wires.
Comfort: Pair of Cobra Sindwinder Racing Seats.

Cosmetic Upgrades Planned
Absolutely None!! Muwhahahaa! Actually not really, I already swapped out the S4 taillights for a set of S5 Round tail lights. But as far as ground effects and so forth, There isn't much on the market that I feel looks better than the stock bodystyle, keep it a sleeper so to speak, that way it draws less attention from you know who :-p
However there is one front end kit that does interest me some, but I am still thinking about it. The FC2000 Kit from RE AMEMIYA does intrigue me, but its a rather price cosmetic mod (~$1800USD). Other than that, nothing else, no stickers, no wings, no rice. She's already sexy, why mess with a good thing?

Here is a pic of the FC2000 front bumper kit.

We seem to share the same performance philosophy, I'm a HUGE fan of the Turbo II (really any turbo rotary Mazda) great luck with it, and I hope to run into it on the streets one day (or possibly race against it in the canyons)
