Ahhh... so it was your car which ignited my rotary passion, getting rebuilt at my school by your friend. Do you mind if I use some pics as my dp and sig here? If not I'll take them off. Your paint in the last pic looks really good!

Now!







I'm about 50% done right now. Still have a long way to go but its drivable and it feels sooo good! Everything done by me, including paint/body and engine porting.

And yes I will be ditching the rx8 wheels sometime soon.
