I don't know what these guys are talking about, but that kit looks hot...

The only thing that I would do (If I had money.....) would be to get some moulding done to have the front / side skirts and rear area match up on the side of the doors. As it looks now, there is a gap where the doors are. If that was all one piece, it would look baaaaddddd

Lowering springs.....and RB exhaust along with a GTU/TII wing. I'm not a huge fan of the Front end...but it looks clean otherwise. I'd skip the graphics.....

I figured you drove an rx or why else would you be on this site. What I dont understand is how can you critisize someone without explaining and be to chicken to post your own pictures if your ride is so much better. That and since you so clearly noted that you had a t11 like it would ever hold up to a stage 2 street port with a atkins supercharger nos not yet included. So please if you have something to say say it or else goto a different thread. I posted this for feedback in making my ride better, not for ppl like you who do nothing but critisize on anothers ride.

I would ditch those side skirts, add a set of s5 t2 skirts. Mold in the bumpers or atleast make them mount flushly.

I like that kit actually. It goes nice with the color. I've always been a fan of Erebuni stuff, I ahve certainly seen worse. It looks fine like it is, but if you MUST get a wing, get a stock TII one. And dont even think about graphics.

By the way, you live in St. Cloud eh? You should have come to the MN meet last April.

Thanks for all your opinions they have been helpful except the body kit is erebuni shogun and the lines in the kit supposed to be there and supposed to fallow the old lady looking trim. www.erebuni.net " can not do anything to the body kit"I love it the way it is I love the color and the look I think is unreal awsome. But I was hopping that more ppl would have better feed back for me than critical Maybe I posted wrong or missled you with the pole I mainly posted for help with graphics and a rear wing. Some of you were awsome and did just that. I found out on this site most of the critics do not even have a working rx7. Again for you who gave me the feedback I wanted Thank you

#437 goes with the kit, but may be a little large. #374 and #375 look alot better.

In my honest opinion the kit NEEDS the molding, or it doesnt look right.
Yours doesnt have the molding.

There it looks proper with the molding. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the fitiment of your install. But you need the molding, a different more Solid color and possibly a GTU/T2 wing. A "sport" spoiler if you want to stay lower profile. A t2 hood isnt necessary, but some sort of a functional vented hood would be good.

Oh, and your pictures are Red X's now, I think you exceeded your bandwidth limit.

Thanks. I wanted to go april but my car was not ready and I had to work. Thanks for the tips I am not sure I like the 437 either. 374 to me looks like anyother wing but the #375 I would not mind at all.

I see what you mean but remember different colors show different things and camra length and angles have alot to do with it. In person this kit is actually awsome no regrets on it at all. The taking off the molding I had the Idea after the body kit was fitted For three reasons I thought it took from the car and it doesnt do anything since that is actually supposed to be a guard from door dings do you think it works? I have yet to find a door to match that low. 3rd thing was I intended on putting a graphic on and it would be a pain with the guard. Since painting I have had second thoughts of graphics. Thanks for the imput on the gtu style wing I have heard that alot and regretted taking mine off since paint but the one I had was beeten and thought some other wing might be needed after paint. The t11 hood would just slow the car down thats why I originally bought the body kit for cooling since the stage 2 portted engine gets so warm I needed better cooling. But would like to buy like a knight sport hood where the scoop is indinted in the hood reversed.

Don't start bragging about your engine mods.....whats this STAGE 2 crap seriously I HATE when people say that have "staged" mods, KNOW ONE UNDERSTANDS THAT. Were not playing Gran Turismo here.....How do you know his TII doesn't have 13B-RE and a T51? And don't say you'd smoke my car.......all I have to do is whip out the modded viper right next to the GTU't'

Actually I was not bragging about my engine mods I was trying to make him see that he has no idea who I am or what I have I could have a tt 20b for all he knows. All I do know is that he is a negative person who has no idea how to have fun and in his profile he states he is trying to get his t11 running. His comment was is this a joke and wouldnt elaberate on it. How can I fix something or understand his point? YOu must be his friend or you never would have gott'n involved so as for the staged engines anyone who knows the rotary knows there are only 3 different stages you can port the rotory. If you ever order one you better know what stage you want it ported. As for your grand torismo crap you know where to stick that RIGHT NEXT TO YOUR UNDERGROUND sign isnt that also a video game need for speed. I came on here to meet people who understands and who are into the things I am. I mean who can relate to this speach "foreign are junk" Or "buy american" but I am finding out there are more hipoctritical people on here than anywhere else, to bad most of you are ***'s because a love for something should be fun not a debate meet.

what the hell are you talking about? I've posted pictures of my car on this forum before pal. I've been around awhile. And when did I say anything about your engine? Where did that even come from? And I seriously thought this thread was a joke. When I first read it I thought it was somebody just trying to stir up some flames. The "Graphics and Wing" part really threw me off.

Oh and I like how you jump right into the "my car is faster than yours" bs. I really wish I cared if my car was fast but really, I just have fun driving it. If I wanted a fast 1/4 car then I definately wouldn't have bought an RX-7!!

and why the hell would I want an atkins supercharger?? I have a TII. That's Turbo in case you didn't know. Who would go to all the trouble to supercharge an already TURBO-charged engine? and don't get me started on nitrous oxide. ugh.

I still don't get what you meant by too chicken to post pictures of my own car. Do I have to post pictures of my car everytime I post or every time I don't like what I see? I never said my car was better than yours (even though I much prefer mine). I just said I thought this was a joke!

lighten up silly rabbit

edit: my TII runs, I just haven't updated my profile in oh... 2 years or so...
