I saw a first gen that was lifted with some big tires on it a while back. I think it might have been yellow.

If anybody has this pic or a pic of another lifted 7 could you either post it or post a link. One of my friends at work doesnt beleive that it can/has been done before.

thanks, chris

 

that will be thousand bucks for my effort

 

C'mon.....
Any redneck or bored hick with an old RX-7 shell and a bare PU truck frame can do that!!!!Its just a matter of bolting the bare shell of the car to the truck's frame.Ive seen it,its been done.I dont have the particular picture you need,but damn near every car concieved has ended up on a lifted 4x4 frame at some point or another....were Americans!!

Now if someone actually lifted an RX-7 with the stock RX-7 suspension points,thatd be some work.....and pretty pointless too, being 2WD and having toothpick sized axles/spindles...



:edit: ...............and there you go!

 

i agree plus looks rude might aswell buy a truck for that

 

Not a first gen but what the heck...

 

that looks better lol

 

Ahhhhh!
I could forgive them if it was a beater or a mud bogger.
But when they polish and dress it up, like their proud of their creation....now thats just wrong!!!!.......heh,heh

 

man that was really fast

ty blwfly, ill make sure to send a check asap. Awesome price, thanks for the steal.

I know nobody else prob likes it but that yellow car is badass, i wish i had me one. I have been looking for a new project though

 

honestly with the time and money spent on doing this 4x4 travesty you could have nice quicker fb

 

well i had a tii fb that i was working on that i spent a pretty penny on

 

you still have it? ild never sell my car evan if i was desparate for money just not worth whats spent.im stayin 12a and modifing to a good state for my first rotary then after im bored with that ill just buy another and go nuts with a 13b

do you wanna take a fb out hunting deer

 

no i parted it out, i managed to get about 6K total back but i spent alot more then that + all the time i had put into it.

This was my 3rd 7 so i had the hang of things i think. Ive started doing swaps for people around my area. Im working on a TII 88vert right now.

I do live in texas . I just think it would be cool to have. Ive honestly never seen a lifted car in person. I do take my beater/work truck(76 chevy 4x4, 350, 4 in lift, 36in tires) out and go mudding sometimes.

 

lol i have a shell you can have to put on that beater/work truck lol free

 

That's one of the things I'd do if I was a millionaire, but ONLY because I need a 7 or rotary powered beast for every occasion.

Summer car (FB), winter beater (FC), track racer (two or three types), 4x4 (of course, I'd make it a rotary), REPU (for carrying things), Cosmo (for long trips), rotary-powered snowmobile, fishing boat, go-kart, ATV, Norton F1 Motorcycle ('cause I can), some sort of rotary-powered chopper

to go along with my rotary lawnmower and the rotary air compressor I use around the shop, and the rotary generator I use when the hydro cuts out,

And odd monsters like my FWD Rotary Honda CRX (with the sidedraft which conveniently enough points straight forward, so I could RAM-Air it).

Did I miss anything?

 

rotary RC car...woot they make lil rotary motors for them

 

A rotary powered chopper, we should get like orange county choppers or West coast choppers to build a rotary chopper! Im thinking a decent TII engine with a huge Turbo hanging out the side of it... Anyways im getting pretty off topic, what I find interesting is that someone went to all that effort.

 

Wow, and the obsession becomes...... obsessive...................

 

well since im thinking about it i might as well start planning.

can anybody get me a measurement from the center of the front wheel well to the center of the back one? I dont have my 7 anymore or else i would do it myself.


anybody got any suggestions, im in the planning stages and i want to see what is resonable and affordable.

 

we have a 1st gen and a 2nd gen lifted...anyone got a pic of a 3rd gen...I'd like to see that...with a full body kit too...think it would add to the dramatic effect...

 

Gotta make it a veilside kit...

This makes you a redneck...j/k. Reminds me of those lines you always here in movies...I wish I had me one of dem right dere...

Agreed on that one...it was just so hideous that I had to save it...

 

I said that on purpose to try and sound hickish.

I just think it would be cool to have a car that nobody else has. Atleast anybody i know. As i stated before i have never seen a lifted car in person and i think it would be differnent to have one.

does anybody have any measurements for me??

I agree that the second gen doesnt look good. I dont think they look all that good stock either. Thats why i attempted my 84 gsl-se swap in the first place. It is a car that looks better and i lighter.

Not only did i save the pic of the first gen but i took pics of it with my camera phone so that i vcould show anybody/everybody that i know. I am seriuosly considering that as my next project in a couple of months when i get my raise and have some extra cash.
