well boys and gaaarrilas, here is my 1st gen, i copied the STI with the flat black paint cuz my paint was dead but its cool cuz rx-7s are hella cooler so it all works out in the end, so here's the pics. As for the strut bar its all taped up due to my retarded friend. i told him to tape off a one part while i was putting my tranny in because the strut was grounding off the AC bracket and blowing my fuses. so now its duct taped red.... ya.... the car has 285k miles on the orignal motor, i bought it from the orignal owner. and its pretty much dent free and RUST FREE!, has 1 or 2 litle dings thats abot it

 

here is a pic to show that it doesnt leak much oil, the engine has never been cleaned so ya...


and my ugly *** burgandy interior

 

by the way i have the stock stereo that i need to get rid of, so u come pick it up and its yours, it worked perfecly fine when i took it out

 

Nice lookin ride there. Did you just make a bracket to hook the strut bar up to? I was thinking about doing something simialar. I dont think it will be long for you to not miss your FC anymore.

 

that car is in nice ******* shape for having almost 300k on it, that interior is pristine, to bad its red

and did you rattle can primer yours, or spray gun it?

 

285k on original -SE motor and it looks THAT good too?!

I=Jealous!

 

One place you might want to check for rust is in the tire wells...

 

no rust anywhere, suckers. the strut bar is from a FC and it fits fine

 

wait that is a strut bar for an fc???

 

for 285k miles, it still isn't showing any signs of low compression or power loss?
if not, then i give ya and props for a well taken care FB.

might wanna check up on bushings since your car has a lot of miles

 

god damn

 

I can attest it runs great,Ive driven it.Thats the good ol' SE 13B for ya,they go forever.
Thats the beauty of the west coast,no rust problems unless you live right on the ocean.Mine sat in a field for 4 years and it still has zero rust at 225,000 miles.
Nice job on the flat black Neil,much better than peeling silver.Just dont go putting any aluminum Pepboys wings on the back!

 

looks pretty good in flat black, couldn't help but notice the corrado in the garage though, can't wait to pay off my other car so i can finally get a corrado and work on that, for now the 1st gen gets most of my attention and time.

 

yup the strut bar is for a FC, because my friend orderd one for his FD but they gave him one with 4 holes instead of 3 so he gave it to me, dont worry im not gonna put any gay wings or **** on my car, im probley just gonna put some mods into this motor and stick with it to get me through colege, but for now im probley just gonna get headers,catback exhaust, and ignition and other cosmetic things to keep it running good

 

the corrado is also fully built engine, it was bored out and all the junk with a brand new super charger

 

so is this confirmed that FC strut bars fit on fbs?

 

first off the car looks great, but the seat Must have been recoved at some point,??????

I got mine 3rd in line and my seat'd are done, although i did get a passenger seat in Nearly mint condition from a wrecker up here in Canada.

I too like the V.W. Cor,, with the supercharger, damn. What one do U like best?

 

Nice looking 7, dude! Engine looks sharp, & body strait. Get a Grant GT steering wheel & the interior will be perfect. BTW: is that your purse on the passenger floor?

 

gotta admit...i THOUGHT 7's look kinda shitty in flat black...

 

It looks to be a CD case

 

i like the flat black look. i think im gonna do that now. hahaha
i love your car. im jealous

 

yup it was a CD case on the floor, and yes i guess FC strut bars fit but they get really close to the alternator and touch the AC bracket a little, i had to make the holes a little bigger but it fit in th end. thanks for the compliments guys

 

bump

 

thats the best looking strut bar i have evvvvvar seen . where you get that? West Coast Customs?

 

This is either a poor attempt at sarcasm or a perfect example of a post ***** who reads nothing and just looks at the pictures and posts "cool"
