Sweet deal. Always wanted someone to do this stuff for me. I don't have the time/patience/know-how for photochops. How about digitally adding a set of Respeed Coilovers for me (1.5-2" drop. Whatever looks best!)?
Then maybe a seperate pic with the same drop, a vented hood and some 18" wheels...?? I dunno how much time you need to kill, but if you could show me a bunch of different wheels on it it'd help me make up my mind for when it gets a different bolt pattern and bigger brakes... (Hopefully this winter sometime...)

Kerebrus 12-04-08 11:30 AM

Don't go 18".. go 17"

littleredrotary 12-04-08 01:03 PM

this looks like a ok drop, 1.5ish inches, also made the colors a bit better

Nice. I like it. Now, to save up the cash... lol
I haven't given a ton of thought to the rims, since I want to do everything at once. Rims, rear end, bigger brakes, and coilovers are a lot of cash to save....

I've always been partial to something in a simple five spoke ...

I don't think meshies would really suit, but I'm open to anything.


Don't go 18".. go 17"
Yeah, I'd probably do 17's in the front, but I dunno, Some 17;s still look smallish to me. But I guess the kit will probably help things...

rotaryboy23 12-04-08 02:04 PM

Thanks, btw!

Kerebrus 12-04-08 02:52 PM

Silver mesh on Red is drool.

Kerebrus 12-04-08 06:51 PM

I think you'll need to provide similar angles.

rotaryboy23 12-04-08 07:32 PM

they're already lookin good on another FB, so you know they'll look sweet. And are those only 17's? They look bigger. But I've got crappy judgement...

im game for this.

Here you go. Lets start simple.

How about making the front bumper the same color as the car.

http://i38.tinypic.com/w9fpd5.jpg
http://i36.tinypic.com/34dh37r.jpg

Then, give it the same color scheme as this car:

http://i38.tinypic.com/124fog7.jpg

Im looking for a gunmetal top with a red pinstripe on the bodyline, and the stock silver the rest of the way down. Do the wheels the same gunmetal at the top half. Post a pic before and after the wheel color change. If you can, make the front caliper red.

Thank you. :)

fivehunsky 12-04-08 11:21 PM

If you still have the time..

How about.. these wheels

Thank You


And rotaryboy

What brand rear lip/wing is that? and body kit.. your car looks great... :icon_tup:

NoPis10 12-04-08 11:38 PM

Hey aws140,
Here is my SE with Gunmetal Grey rims and Red TII calipers...:icon_tup:

rotaryboy23 12-05-08 02:18 AM

Thanks! Front air dam is one that our local RX7 guru has a mold for. I think it's pretty similar to the Erebuni one. The body kit is custom. All made out of sheet metal... Had to shorten the lip to get it to line up. I had a good bodyman....

Directfreak 12-05-08 08:11 AM

I guess the original poster got tired after doing "one".

rotaryboy23 12-05-08 02:46 PM

hey aws140..... 5-lug pattern. Explain please!
Big brakes or subframe swap?
If its Big brakes, how hard was the kit to install?
I want to do them, but I want a better rear end....

openshot 12-05-08 03:08 PM

Big Brake kit and Axles from RE Speed..
The install is straight forward and can be done in a weekend..
Great product by RE-Speed :icon_tup: :icon_tup:
I would recommend them to anyone...

haha im still here, i sprained my ankle and been out of it the past couple days :/

dbragg 12-06-08 09:18 AM

lwnslw-- thats the color scheme im definitely going with. im just not 100% sure on the color of the wheels yet.

rotaryboy23-- just as lwnslw said, www.re-speed.com complete conversion. very easy to install and awsome quality. if you want a stronger rearend, the moser axles add some strength, but if you are going to be pushing big power and using slicks, youll need to swap to a bigger rearend, or get creative. i plan on getting creative, once i need the strength, and then if that doesnt work ill go with a toyota 8" rearend.

how about we make things a lot simpilar? how about just making the front end silver? i just cant decide what color it needs to be.

foothill 12-06-08 06:10 PM

Show me a 1" and then a 2" drop. Thanks!
