Oh, and there is an RX-7 for sale on Radar Hill Road. Looks exactly like mine. The dude went away to college and he is having his sister selling the car for him. They want $1000 for it and apparently the only thing wrong with it is they have to pull the injector fuse to start the car cause it floods after it runs for a while and its hard to start. I'd buy it but I don't have any room in my garage for another car.

Do you still like your setup? Notice rubbing? Do you have ABS?
I think the ABS makes the rim stick out more.

Any problems with cooling by having the number plate in the cooling vent.
I had mine down there and the bitch would get hot.
Nice wheels by the way, I really like the black with red, cause thats what I got but mine only 16 inch, GTR rims, sprayed in satin black.

I dont really like those rims, with all the choices at a relatively cheap price, something different and alot nicer woulda made a big difference.... But thats IMHO, im sure you love your car how it is... Anyways good job.

I'm going to be getting with Project84 and get the motor rebuilt fresh this late winter too. Hopefuly she will be like a new ride all over again come spring.

Rims are up to the owner's likings really... What I would do is get a nice looking tail pipe... Cut that one shorter and cover it with a nicer looking tip...
