MA My babies...FC3S and the AE86

The FC is still a work in progress but it boils down to this:

1991 Mazda RX7 Turbo II
86k on this chassis

Engine:
S4 13b block
S5 manifolds/accessories/sensors
Streetport
3mm Apex seals
Racing Beat top mount manifold
Greddy compression tube
Precision SC61 ball bearing turbo
Tial 44mm ext wastegate
Tial BOV
Godspeed front mount w/custom piping
RC Engineering 1200cc primary and secondary injectors
Corksport braided/stainless oil cooler lines
Godspeed radiator

Management/Electronics:
FD3S Apexi Power FC w/hand commander
Banzai patch harness for the FC3S
GM 3 bar MAP
Simplified engine harness (11 plugs total in the engine bay including the 4 for the injectors)
PLX SM-AFR wideband
Blitz boost gauge
Autometer oil pressure gauge

Wheels:
Advan RGII
17x8.5 +31 f
17x9.5 +35 r


The AE86 is converted to a GTS...completely...and is pretty much done, I use it as my around town car
















this pic is older and was from when I was installing the new harness/Power FC but you get the idea




Needs paint and a suspension but its almost there

FC looks good, get some coilovers on her.
love the advans. I think your sleepy eyes could be lower though, too high looks dorky.

So you can rock a FD powerfc on a FC and it works fine?

with the Banzai kit it does...

its running (surprisingly well) on a base map, it'll go back in to Dent Sport for a final tune once I get the new radiator in...runs good if I take it easy but with the summer heat and that turbo it runs warm if I romp on it too much

yeah, the AE86 hatches seem to fetch more $$ here too but I always liked the coupes better
-can probably attribute that to the fact I've never seen more than 30 seconds of an Initial D episode...true story






I feel the same way about S13's as well...coupes > hatch's



thanks for the kind words everyone

If I were a guy, my FC would definitely be an attempted extension of the above mentioned item I am a very proud person.

Anyway, great combo, an 86 is something I would love to experience owning.
