there are pictures of a 88 Turbo II rally racing in the recent Sport Compact Car. As for an AWD FC, I heard RE Amemiya made an AWD FC also that was make for street/circuit and show. But its just something i heard.

I know RE Amemiya made a 20b AWD FC, because a forum memeber was going to buy it, but when he looked at it, he found that the car had been siting out under a tarp for years. I'll try to find the pics.

and heres a few random pics i have bookmarked depicting parts of the car, also i once hurd a rumor on this forum actualy that if you wanted to buy one of his awd 7's (he has more than one?) that they could be bought for 125k (each im guessing)

just a pic of him racing



heres a pic of the fabracated frontend


and the last pic of this car racing i have


all of these images can be found at http://www.rx7uknet.dircon.co.uk/rx7_x605_4.html

i have also seen pics of re-ameria's awd 20B fc, they looked like a fabricated tubframe front end though, they looked nothing like the stock front end, but as of now, i cant find them

thats all for now

its a shame that how it was treated though, under a trap

i think one of the millens used to have an AWD FC back when the car was sold...i'm not positive though. the US rallys always have a couple FC's in the but to tell u the truth they aren't very pretty as its the kinda car you race in a rally if u have it (not one u purchase to rally exclusively.
