This is just for the kat with the ram hood..... What the F__K are you thinking? That looks downright terrible!! Homie, you remind me of this kat I saw on 680 in the Bay Area, this fool had Pontiac Firebird stickers all covered on his Grand-Am. Dude that is the defintion of RICE!! Your going to get hit with lighting for doing that to that 7. Shame on you!!!!

The reason for this is that the red on my 90 GTU is not to good and some day I will get the whole car painted.

The only waste I see is your closed mind. The RX7 is a great car. The rotary is a great engine. But the car is by far the best in design, road worthyness and ride for the money. I'm sure that anything that doesn't meet your own small world is a waste. Open your eyes, there is a whole wonderful world of automotive. Anyone can buy a hot rod but when you make one even better than it was with a lot less money, then that is true hot rodding. Stickers, lights, wings and k&n air filters are fine, boast about 165 hp. I can boast of about 300 hp at 1/3 the cost and better gas milage, more torque, better reliability and longgevity. My engine and trans has over 130,000 miles on it and still runs strong and I do not have to worry when will my apex seals blow out. I'm not knocking the rotary, its just not my cup of tea, but the 7 on the other hand is.

i'm not a big "ANTI-V8" guy or anything, i actually think the swap is kinda cool even though it gets away from the whole rx7 rotary thing, but whatever floats your boat.
but for god sakes take that ****** hood off there. that thing looks like trash.

not completly knocking your car, it's just that generally the RX-7 or any other RX is named RX because it is powered by a rotary engine (anyone feel free to correct me if i'm wrong) and i'm not a huge rotary freak well maybe a slight one just because of how unique this engine is. Basically taking a rotary out of an RX-7 is a lil different then just taking a piston out of any other car just my 2 cents
