Very clean, personally I've never been a fan of leaving the windshield trim unpainted, but very nice car nonetheless. Sounds like a good engine setup, somethign similar to what I want to build next....

Nice car. That interior does still need a lot of work though.

Thanks guys, I'm glad you like my car. I've been meaning to post a link. LOL, I guess someone beat me to it. This is my never ending project. The black interior is almost there, just missing a couple things.

Extremely clean and properly done.....'cept it needs to be lowered about 1/2" more all around...

I am going to lower the back just enough to match the front.

There was a little bit of cutting, welding and fabricating involved for a good fit with the seats. Courtesy of JRX.

MY friend showed me this link like a month or 2 ago saying it reminded him of my car.

He's like "Both of you have an 83 Rx-7, with a 13B, a 48mm carb, black meshie wheels with a polished lip, the same exhaust system, and you want the suspension his has! You guys were like brothers!" I then saw the page and read the description and made it a goal for my exterior/interior to follow suit(which is a long ways off). And when my engine pops, I'm gonna go the same route with ported 12A irons. good job man! your car is an inspiration.!
