In 2006 I stumbled upon a 94 FD touring editon with the Bose acoustic wave system, a descently healthy car with low miles (54057 to be accurate) at a reasonable price. The car was already equiped with a GReddy SP2 catback, Centerforce clutch kit, Racing Beat spoiler, GReddy turbo/full auto timer, and an Autometer boost gauge. I stepped back and weighed my choices for about two weeks, my options were 93 supra with minor rear end damage or the FD which was flawless. I had always been fascinated by the rotary engines and there dexterity when tuned properly by someone who knows what they're doing. So after a heated debate with my friends who were saying go with the supra I said nope, there is something about that Rx that has me drawn to it.
So i scrounged up as much money as I could working and picking up odd jobs around town. June 7 rolled round and I was headed out to pick up the car. I finally reached the location where the car was and I knew it was time. Papers where signed, laughes exchanged and the FD was finally mine. I immediately started planning out the whole setup of this beast in disguise. I ran into a lot of problems...1. I didn't really have a whole lot of expreince with something like this so finding someone who was more that qualified to help me work on the car was damn near immposible, 2. I didn't realy know where to start on mods, 3. I was afraid of screwing up royally or looking like a complete idiot. But then as if someone upstairs was looking down on me I found Steve, with over 9 years of working with these beauties, I figured what the hell I have heard nothing but good things about him and his work, why not give it a shot.
So now I'm in college and i don't like what I'm taking so I said to myself...self why don't you do something you love (aka cars). So I joined up with a kick *** motorsports program (through Arrington). I'm now gaining vast amounts of knowledge working with Steve and school. Along the way I picked up a few mods, check them out and see what you think....

so, did you drop out of school?

RabNastyRx

lol nah man I'm still in the motorsports program and loving every minute of it, one of the best choices I've made. Kinda funny I went from Allied Health (denistry and stuff like that) to automotive, I have no regrets because I love what I do

Most of your upgrades have to do with performance....How about suspension and brake upgrades?

become a dentist~ you make more money that way to support your 7~
also, do you have aftermarket Radiator already or planned?

RabNastyRx

I had thought about the radiator many times, but i haven't made a final decision yet, suspension is all stock excet the front strut tower that we threw own. I'm nerveous about the GReddy Standard mount intercooler that we have on it...I'm scared that the intercooler might not be able to throw out adequate cooling.
