Hello.

Happy New Year!
Now I have stripped the engine bay. At first my plan was to just paint the outside of the car. But I know my self so well, that ill know that if would regret on that when I’m finished. My colour is going to be HOK Apple Red.

Here is some pictures, got more info on my homepage www.turbo-kid.com

edit: I cant post pictures here

som check out my homepage.

I also got some bonus pictures of the other rx-7, you may can call it a ICEX-7..

make sure to post pics when you're done.

and i'm not sure if they work for anyone else, but the pictures on this page: http://www.turbo-kid.com/seb.html won't load for me unless I click the thumbnail and get the big version. the thumbs are just blank squares... maybe its my internet explorer though

Hello again! I have been working a little in my spare time. I have started to converting the taillights to 99spec and been working on my rear fenders.

I dont know what kind of glue it is, if someone know drop me pm

Molding the rear fenders is not a one day job if you are not professional.. At first I had too little hardener on the filler. I was waiting for two days and it would not dry! That combined with low temperature and high air humidity. I hade to scrape everything off again and start all over.

Not finished yet, I got much left, but it’s moving forward! I sprayed some black paint on the left fender to see were I need filler.

I would leave the taillights stock. I assume it's some sort of a silicone glue.
