Talking I wanna see your RX-7

I just want to see everyone's cars just to get some ideas on what to do to my own and to see what else is going on with them. That is pretty much all this one is about so go crazy and post some pics of your car. One more thing, who else thinks that in The Fast and the Furious there should have been less Hondas(especially civics) and more 7's?

No, that was one of the few accurate things in the Fast & the Furious - A whole bunch of stupid Hondas with one RX-7 stomping on them on a daily basis.

Popular mods are the OEM areo kit (A or B kit), OEM sunroof windguard (my fav), cupholder mod, painting interior trim pieces different colors (to match you paintjob), swapping seats from another year rx7 (lumbar & 8x adjustable), LUGGAGE COVER (aka hatch cover) - looks REALLY good.

2 tone paint jobs, swapping the TII hood onto the base NA models, adding the TII/GTU rear spoiler to non-spoiler base models, glass moonroof (still looking for a supplier), etc..

Actually there are to FD's in the fast and the furious, the red one of course and there is another on in the race wars scene where doms gf races that jamacian guy. If you look closely when the camera pans away you will reconize a FD

I've had this one for almost three years. 435 bhp..., when I have all of the apex seals











I bought this one on 01-12-02 to repair over the next many months. Look, you can barely see the gray one, under a cover behind it, because of the lowering.

Mike I'm surprised you still have those mufflers on your car living in Louisiana. The roads I've been on every time I was down there weren't so great. Whats the ground clearance on those? About 3''?

HA, you're right! The clearence is about 3.5" (bad photo angle shows 4") but, the lowest point is near the tire so, I don't hit very many things. I'm gonna raise the rear 1/4".
