Ya, go in the first gen section. Dude, you should totally go for a rx8 conversion extreme, that would be so sweet. Oh ya, great progesson the coneversion

 

you should make this into a production body kit so everyone can can drive an FD, lol

 

No, that would be weird after awhile tho because then everybody would have the same thing. What i like about rx7s is that nobody really knows what they are(especially first gens). They don't know what a rotary engine is either. There unique.

 

i think that gonzz's car was the nicest at SS9. it has widebody and TII motor. nice paint, original RHD SA22C and it didn't win best first gen.

so, good luck for next year, and keep up with the progress pics.

oh, as for the 1 piece, or 3 piece... hard to say. you want to keep it still looking like an FD, and an FD has body lines, and spaces where the bumper bolts up... Im trying to imagine what it will look like, but most likely more than 1 pc would look best IMO

 

^ gonzzs car isnt a widebody, it has rolled fenders. yes its nice and all JDMish though jk

 

bump. we want progress pics!! (if possible)

 

Nope, we would not all wind up driving the same thing, I personally love the look of the 1st gen and wouldn't buy a FD look a like kit. Mariha is one of the few companies that do 1st gen kits and you don't see every one with their stuff.

 

wow, nice fabrication effort!!!!!!! Can't wait for the finished product. Kind of reminds me of the Fiero/Ferrari thing of years ago.

 

Keep up the great work!!!

 

I WANT IT DONE TO MINE!!!!!! How much??????

 

Thanks... No comment about the 1st gen winners... I'll keep that to myself..

 

Arent you going to end up spending about the same as you would for a decent used 3rd gen? I understand the wanting to be different thing, but your just copying something that already exists.... Well either way, great job, I like your quality of work. And it definately will be unique... Just not my thing..

i dont think a used FD cost a $1000, cuz that is all i've spent so far for materials rials.

 

I wasnt sure, just wondering. I'm no body man, but it looks expensive. Not bad expensive, like professional expensive thats all.

 

That's some really nice work man.

Right on.

 

WOW cant even put words to it, simply looks awsome!!!

 

This is probly only the 3rd time ive wondered in to the 1st gen section (im an FC owner).



This, bar none, is the best post and highest quality body work i have ever seen on this forum imo. Makes me want to sell my FC and get an FB even more now. 90 million thumbs up .

Oh ya...


WE WANT TO SEE MORE!!!

 

Can't wait to see the finnished product!

 

any idea when its going to paint?

 

any updates????
pics hopefully!!!

 

i wish... ive been loungin' out though. i did recieve my reverse lights, rear side-reflectors, and front sidemarkers. i was putting those on along with rewiring the whole tail light harness. soon, very soon ill get back to it.

 

Ew

 

Go DIAF: To say just "Ew" to this project is being very ignorant...look at the work that has been done to get it to this stage...sure the style might not be your thing but why even say anything. alot of work has gone into this project ..respect that at least

 

Beside those pics are over a year old, if you were to see it now, im sure you wouldnt say EW

 

i want some recent pics!!! hahaha
