Just a few pics i took today of my FC. It's come a long way since last year. I fixed a lot of problems. Let me know what you think.

thanks,

Here's another one.

 

Looks to be in pretty good shape. Story on the wheels?

 

Looks good, specially the interior. That alone is half the battle.

 

Looks good man

 

Haha yeah about those. I got paid one day and spent 336 bucks just on those two. I got the tires that will go on them then ill get the other two and slap tires on those when i can. im goin up to it today to take more pictures of the rims on, but the car will be up on jackstands.

 

Well the lady i bought the car from had it under a car blanket for like 3 years. So the only thing wrong with the interior is: there's a cigarette hole in the drivers seat, the dash has sun cracks, and it needs to be vaccumed out haha.

 

Put an LSD in it form an S4 Sport, GTU or GXL. You won't regret it.
Looks to be about what I started out with, except mine had a blue interior.

 

And there's only a little bit of surface rust on the sun roof that i can fix in like 5 minutes. The frame is solid (no rust) and i got cross drilled/slotted rotors on it. The tower bar came from 87GTR (Tony). Works like a charm. It's got a high flow cat on it (only reason i know is beacuase i had to replace the oil cooler lines and saw the weld haha). The molding is comin off so i need to get that fixed. Other than that, the stereo doesnt work (the lady who i bought it off of hooked up a new battery backwards and blew out a bunch of stuff, still tryin to figure out most of it. That's about it for now.

 

Any clue on where i can find one bro?

 

NE Classfides. Just check periodically.

You should rallycross that thing.

How old are you, and is this your first car?

I made a mistake when I got my first car. I spent a bunch of money making it nice. I also wanted to get into different competetive driving. After you spend money and make it nice you don't want to risk it with any competetive driving because you're young and don't have a lot of cash.

If you want to get into autocross, rallycross, drifting or other competetive driving. Do it with that base model. You'll save money and learn things faster.

If you want to have a nice RX-7 later on, buy one that has nice paint already etc. and do the smaller stuff yourself. You'll save lots of money and still be able to do what you want to do.

I've F'ed myself the whole time I've had RX-7's. I've always wanted one I can beat on and not care about, and haven't been able to have that.

I should have done it with my first 87' base, and then gotten my nice cars later. Now I have my GTUs and 91 Turbo and I'm almost scared to risk doing anything in them because they are harder to find models.

Good luck with whatever you do!

 

I just turned 18 on Oct 15th. I dont plan on screwing this car up, although with the stupid drivers around these days it might happen. I love this car an yeah it's my first one and ill take good care of it.

I just want a smooth riding Rx-7 since i saw it on Gran Turismo 3 Aspec haha.
