My new car!
6 Attachment(s)
Just bough a Black 1988 RX7 GXL last month. I'm new to the whole rotary build up, but I have a friend who is willing to help me out.
This is what I do know about the car Black exterior, gray interior, "DID" have a 13B-RE in it, ACT 6 puck TII 5speed trans, TII lsd differential, stock 5 lug, TII drive shaft, stock wheels, custom made lobster/dolphin tail exhaust (don't really know for sure?) one spot of rust in the right rear fender (size of a pea, but can't even see it), there is more but I can't really remember. (Sorry if the pictures look bad) |
That is the perfect shell in my opinion. Its a light s4, you have an lsd, and the paint looks decent.
get an engine/engine management sys and replace the DTSS bushing. and looks like you'll be set. So what engine are you planning on using btw? |

Plan on dropping in a 13B-REW, a friend of mine is selling it to me.
|
Sweet! then that works out great.
|
keep the s4 tails!
|
looks really clean. good luck with the REW.
|
I really appreciate the comments and thank you very much, I will try to document everything done to the car.
|
very clean and keep the tire/wheel combo ...once you drop in the 13brew surprise everyone at the track when you roll in stock trim and whooping cars all day
|
clean car now just finish the T2 swap.

Great job! Back to life.

Can we see pictures of the cluster light up? Prefer at night.
|
Some paint on that nose and some nice clean FTP's would make it look complete. I love it. Clean build.

Top left digital gauge is: Fuel in PSI, to the right of that is my Boost in PSI, right below that one is my Exhaust Gas Temp gauge (EGT) in Fahrenheit and to the left of that is my Oil pressure in PSI. The most obvious one is the Autometer Tach and unfortunately you can't see my shift light due to the car just being keyed on. The other gauge that is right next to my tachometer is my digital MPH gauge with Odometer. http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps03ff7e52.jpg Here is my idiot cluster: Left gauge has Water temp in Fahrenheit, Voltage in the middle and Fuel amount in percentage to the right. http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps9a496614.jpg Blurry pic of everything glowin blue. Attachment 655114 Attachment 655115 ^ Key taken out of the ignition cylinder but having the daytime running light on, only the tach displays. Here is with the lights on in the garage (Pics Below): http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps57cde5de.jpg Attachment 655116 Attachment 655117 Attachment 655118 Attachment 655119 Attachment 655120 Attachment 655121 Most of the pics are blurry and hazy, lens was dirty, I am lazy and it is -12 degrees out side with my garage being around 20-30 degrees Fahrenheit. Hope you enjoy the pics. |
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! i wanted to do that with a small screen to the right of the tach to display gps or whatever from a car pc. i think you just motivated me to work on it lol
|
damn that shit is clean!
please tell me how you got them gauges up? |
Wow. the gauges are very impressive! Really brings the interior into a more modern era
