You have tons of choices regarding a body kit. Me, I prefer a simple setup... an S5 front bumper with a lip, RE Amemiya sideskirts and a rear diffuser rounds out an FC nicely!
Ultimately, you do what you want with your car. If I was you, I'd can that body kit, those wheels and turn that thing into a semi-stock DD..except for the suspension of course...i'd go bananas on the suspension.
Save the money that you'd put into doing a turbo swap into that car and just buy a TII. You're better off that way in the long run unless you want to deal with spending twice as much money converting the car over.

well rested,buffet o food
If you are going to keep it.....i would definately shave the moulding on the doors.
I never noticed that kit does away with all the trim.
Like turbo2rotor said....nice job on the install.

Thanks for the comments.

Anyways a couple updated pics here for you all..
The moldings are deffinally getting shaved. but Im still torn on what to do. So many kind of styles i like haha...
Anyways, Im realling liking my project! but I think its goign to slow down a lot now. I got a new job and Im trying to get my business off the ground and especially now its hard!
And! the Subie is taking up a lot of time. Love that ar so much more differnt to drive. but I miss the 7 hopefully she will be on the road soon!
Stay tuned!

Wow this is OLD! I haven't been updating this thread. I have a Thread in the NW Section I update.
https://www.rx7club.com/nw-rx-7-forum-33/build-thread-progress-my-car-lots-pic-865772/
there the link.
But I guess I post a few pic here anyways
Most Current pic I guess.
Car is looking like ****.
Still doing the Molding on the body kit.
its going Slow because Child Support is raping my funds!
I molded the door Trim - Still not 100 Percent yet. A little wavy still.
Side skirts are almost done and so is Rear bumper
I added a S5 Wing Looks Nice!

Real update!! 05.13.2010
Well, MAN ITS BEEN A WHILE sense i updated this last.
My Daughter is now 6 Weeks old. She is awesome and Taking all my time!
But Today I decidded to work on my other baby!
THE BODY KIT IS NOT OFF. I was getting lots of cracks in the seams and when i fixed it they came back a few days later, This is not even from me driving the car. So The Molded body kit is not off the car. It will be used for a future project I think. Not sure yet.
anyways. All the Filler has been removed
Was lots of fun too
Going back to a Almost Stock Look.
Going With:
S5 (89 to 91) RX7 Bumper w/ Corksport lip
Shine Auto Project Rear Diffuser
S5 Turbo II Sideskirts
And not much more than that!
Gonna be clean and Simple!
