Cool Latest mod

A 400 mile round trip, thru the twisty backroads in my FB netted me a new mod. Check it out.
I also got 26MPG on the first tank of fuel used for this trip. Not a bad way to spend a day, in my book.

No sunroof for me. Ruins what little rigidity the car has. Looks very nice tho.

It does go quite well with the red and the tinted windows, doesn't it.
Gonna take a while to get used to it, though. But I like it.

Actually the way the sunroof is built in these cars it dosnt affect strength in any way. All the roof bracing is around the edges wether it has a sunroof or not. If you have a 7 with no sunroof it just has steel in place of the original metal sunroof...the bracing is exactly the same. You could cut a roof from one RX-7 and add it to another provided your good with spot welding and body work. Anyone removes a headliner and youll see exactly what Im talking about.
