Nice job! The car looks pretty sharp Brad. Yea I sold My FD and picked up the C5 in my sig. I need to come down your way and check out your shop sometime. Sounds like you are doing well down there. Is the owner of the car on this forum? I'd love to see if I can get him to bring it to some of our local meets.
I'm proud to say that the FD belongs to me. Brad did superb work on the engine. I would be glad to come to a meet. I should have the car back next week and have her new shoes on.
As for mods, right now she is still on stock twins but has a streetport, fmic, deusch works fuel pump, FC and Commander, profec II, koyo rad, auto to manual conversion, 3" dp, full 3" custom exhaust and midpipe. All the piping, fmic, and exhaust were custom fabbed by Brad @ R.I.P. We think the car is sitting on Eibach springs, not sure though they were on it when I purchased it, KYB struts, a launch kit and cobra seats that haven't been installed yet.
I will be adding a fpr and injectors next, then single conversion w/ water injection, hopefully done by next summer.
In December the car will go in for full paint and the rest of the body mods, should make its first appearance at Starbird followed by a trip to DGRR.

Sounds like a really nice FD! Would love to see it at a meet, we have everything from Geos to skylines showing up. I've only seen 2 or 3 rotary cars but none were FDs Anywho, I'll shoot you a pm either tonight or tomorrow with details

Maybe the end of summer, this one might get out of the garage to one of those events.
Had the engine/turbo in something else last summer ...those guys had no idea what flew by them.
We ran into some issue with the FD. During tuning the twins went out. So we have decided to go ahead and convert to a single turbo. As soon as it returns to me, I'll definitely come out to a meet.
