This is a universal RX7 site. I think there are some Australia specific ones, but the RX7Club is for everyone who wants to join.

For those American people...

210 KW = ~281 hp
190 KW = ~255 hp

Welcome

I don't do much posting, but always enjoy seeing a really clean Champagne Gold 7. Nice job. Quick question, what are the 2 little (for lack of a better term), "dots" on the top of your back bumper? Don't think I have seen that before.

Thanks for sharing.

18's look retarded on FCs...

18's look clean on FCs if you can pull off a clean look with them. Nice car all together man, welcome to the sight.

18's on an FC are like a Japanese chick with a head the size of a basketball. It isn't going to look good any way you do it. The proportions just don't work.

Now, if it's an FD, or an RX-8 you're talking about, 18's look great. A 350Z will look just as good even with 19's. It's all about proper proportions.

No... I just think anything bigger than a 17 looks wierd on an FC... and ideally, 16's look the most natural.

Not to mention your tires must cost an ASSLOAD...
