My new car!
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?

Some not so detailed interior pics let alone blurry:

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.
Here is my idiot cluster: Left gauge has Water temp in Fahrenheit, Voltage in the middle and Fuel amount in percentage to the right.
Blurry pic of everything glowin blue.
^ 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):
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.
