well here it is basically stock rx in pretty rough shape but a super strong heart




well thats it as of right now lol... suspension is first, im going to keep the apex i n1 exhaust, do a 5 lug conversion, finish up the body (most of the work is going to be here) and finish it off with a 20b hopefully by the end of the year. the list is long and expensive but ive wanted an fc for a few years now and this one kind of fell into my lap

 

Definitely needs some TLC, but that's the fun part . Good luck with everything.

 

That gasket is EXPENSIVE!

 

<3 phone dial rims.

 

me too, it just sucks that they are so narrow i am thinking about getting a glass top and turning them into a coffee table or something

 

bar stools would work too

 

I've always wanted to get a set of stock wheels widened. That would be rad.

 

No.

Phone-Dials r teh suxors.

Good looking project! Make sure you keep us updated!

 

Well I was thinking of doing it with some GXL wheels. Or 10-spoke TIIs. I love the positively '80s look of the TIIs.

 

hey good luck with the project looks like fun

and if you want some killer wheels that look like the phone dials....go MS-02s!! here:

 

I have always been a fan of the mazdaspeed02 wheels, just sucks i have only seen them in honda civic offsets.

20b swap huh? who's doing the work?

 

looks like m first rx minus the TII hood

 

i am. lol this isnt my first rodeo. just my first rotary. i want a set of those ms02

 

yeah i know they're made for fds so thats why....you can fit those bitches on a 3rd gen but noooo...not on a 2nd gen. damn fds lol :P
