and the most recent ext. shot:

Sorry for the shitty pics, and shitty site. I'm still working on updating it. I have only recently had the time to work on her. Still lots to work out, still lots to go. But she runs!!! Suprisingly enough, she turns RIGHT over. No hesitation whatsoever. I"ve never seen a car start that fast. not even my mom's honda. Its crazy.
Anyways. Thanks for looking!!
Peace

They are the $20 pedals you USED to be able to buy in the JC Whitney RiceCompact mag.
I LOVE them. perfect for heel/toe. I used to be OK at it, now (w/ these pedals) i only miss when i'm not paying attention. (Attractive female passer-by's, etc) Plus they look supersweet.

I tell ya what, if you're planning on doing this swap, don't plan on having it done in just a weekend. IoTus and I thought we had it all planned out... 1, maybe 2 weekends and we'd be done... but NOOOOO...
Anything and everything that could go wrong did... Plan for it. How long did it take us start to finish? 4? 5? 6 months?
The beauty no longer adorns my driveway (yeah, room for the 58 truck!!), but I can't wait to see it again!! still haven't ridden in it yet...
Exhaust this saturday and then up to Spokane???!!

Yes I am interested in this swap. I would rather go with a carb instead of dealing with the ecm problems. I miss the days of a carb and simple adjustments.
My rx7 is a garage queen and not a daily driver so time is not a issue.

Good. Cause you'll need PLENTY of it!!
I spent 13 hours one day, fixing it up, just to replace one part, a piece of metal, that is probably 2mm x 3mm x 2mm. Wow did that wipe me out. i was exhausted.
Plan for **** like that. And you'll love it all in the end :-)

The car looks really good right now. Any idea what kind of hp #'s it's putting down?
