Post Some Pics of your FC! :D <- Pics of your car go in this thread!!
New mod courteous of the local DMV!
I know I don't have much to post. I finally secured storage so I don't have to sell it and am tapped out after buying my 20b... Fun! At least I had my orange juice.

this car was for sale on ebay a few years ago... are you the lucky new owner, or the seller that realized he was making a huge mistake and changed his mind?
p.s.- painted hood looks much better than the cf! I've been thinking about getting that hood for years (to clear my air cleaner) but never cared for the cf look

Since being back home she's had the entire fuel and cooling systems reworked, about a mile and a half worth of garbage wire removed and cleaned up along with several other plaguing issues addressed. As she stands she needs a clutch, a tune, wastegate and a set or rear tires. This past week I just had the entire body gone over to fix **** that's happened to it since being out of my possession along with painting the hood.
Needless to say I'm really looking forward to the 13 season!

Yes they're dipped. I wanted to do red but I wanted to be sure I loved it before I fully committed. The beauty of plastidip! And people literally stare at them like, "holy **** matte red wheels with a texture. That's bonkers."
What actually happened was I sprayed them when it was too cold out so the dip splattered for the first 4 coats. The final coat I laid down smoothly. Has a cool effect. And it cost me $10.
I feel like Bane. No body cared about the car until I painted them red. Suddenly, paparrazi where ever I goingz.

Most recent pic, thinking about posting her for sale soon, look out for it in the classifieds, maybe....not sure. Still need to put the last few pieces of trim back on after the new paint job.

People look in my engine bay no one notices the belts meanwhile we had a good amount of effort trying to make it all work
Can I see pics of your belts?
Dude ur tellin me! The green was insane BUT I actually liked it. The only reason I decided against it was the fear of attracting the wrong attention (cops). My car is loud as **** when I stand on the right peddle and with the green rims there's no hiding in a croud of cars in hopes he didn't see me. No the height was the same. The only thing that changed from that pic is plasti dip removed and hood painted. At some point I may change up the rim color. Oh and I looked into that dattle stanced look and I think I could pull it off easier than flushed. Plus its a more purpose built stance towards my cars direction anyway. Thanks for the tip.
Looks to me like either 2 APEXi world sport mufflers, or 2 Megan Racing M-OE mufflers. I think I am definitely going dual APEXi world sports after seeing this set-up.
How ironic.. My buddy and I have been talking about this for the last 30 mins... He told me he thinks its the APEXi, or some ebay knockoff... Im really scared to run ebay junk on an rx7 exhaust... I think I will buy the WS2's....
This is my buddies old exhaust... two $60 ebay mufflers.... Sounded deep.. (2jz):

Tsudo Universal SP2 Muffler for Toyota Scion Nissan | eBay
I want to go the APEXi WS2 route though... I think...
This is from early in the fall last year...
But then I got the droopy RB exhaust fixed.
And it turned out perfect before going into hibernation.
I've got a little progress thread going on since the car is completely stripped down for some "maintenance" in the garage now.

Wait what exhaust? Custom? What parts?
Aint that the truth... 90% of my friends are telling me to just "electrical tape" my gauges into place... Been spending MONTHS on just planning, and weeks on actually mounting them. I wanted to flip radio and regular gauge position, and look clean and properly installed...
