how much was it?

 

I like it - looks like a clean job you did. props +1

 

$1500

 

JJohnston, I will take some pics of the enterior and engine bay tomorrow. It started to rain on me today, but the weather should be more cooperative on Sunday.

 

Looks great, I too have a t11 that has no rear spoiler, as far as I can tell its the way it came.

 

some 87's didn't come with spoilers, are you're TII's 87s?

 

Oh, the paint looks good btw!

 

Yes it is an 87. Thanks for all of the props guys.

 

I think it looks good. I've always liked rx7s in that gray color.

 

Thanks 90fc, When all is said and done I do not want it too stand out like a sore thumb. I just want it to appear clean.

 

 

nice. clean interior too. i really dont mind red if it isnt turning green. paint looks good altho the color isnt my taste personally, but it looks good none the less

 

Thanks DREYKO

 

Made you an avitar in photoshop. I think it should work. If RX7Club says it's too big PM me and I'll drop the file size.

enjoy,
TR

 

pics are too small to see the quality of the paint but nice!

 

The pics are thumbnails if that helps at all. I had to host them through photobucket to even get them to post period, due to the file size being too big.

 

Thanks TR, I am going to try and get some better pics of it before I sue it as my avatar, but I appreciate it though.

 

ok gotcha. I just used the best one you had ( the one that actually had the whole car in the frame ) ^_^ take care.

The paint looks good, and I actually like the color. I've seen S4s that I like with the rub strips black, and yours look good painted too. Looks like it has a reasonably low mileage ~90k miles. How does it run?

I do agree that for my tastes it looks a little bland. I like the stock spoiler (or the low profile S4 sport spoiler) and dislike the heavy stock TII wheels. If the car runs right and it was mine, I'd invest in some light weight wheels and good tires. Then make sure the brakes are up to snuff before messing with other performance related changes.

 

I was trying to find a stock spoiler before it went into the shop, but I did not have much luck. I am going to get one in the near future and I think it will greatly improve the styling. The motor was rebuilt at 87k so it still a fresh motor. I have block off plates for emissions removal, a blitz ss bov, dual alt pulley, a RB 80mm DP, and all of the gaskets to pull the turbo and exhaust manifold. All I have done to the car so far is hook up a RB FCD.
Unfortunately I do not have a place to work on it at and time has been pretty tight lately I wsih I knew some more people in the area that enjoyed working on cars as much as I do. It will eventually get done though.
I am going to replace all of the suspension bushings and get some eibach springs adn tokiko illuminas before I worry about rims.
Thanks for the props!

 

Sounds like you have a plan and a very nice car to work with. You might want to check out this site as you modify the exhaust. Waste gate porting and some mild fuel management may be in your future:

I wish I knew where all you people found these nice low mileage TIIs. So far I've only come across one deal on an 88 TII with 43k miles that was partially converted to S5 looks. Some kid bought it off of the original owner, messed it up, and then still wanted $4k for it (not running).

You will like those tokicos. I have them, and they are great for normal road and light track use. I mentioned wheels more for weight reduction and brake cooling than style. You have to trust your own judgement on the style part.

 

Oh, I forgot to finish my thought in my previous post. I have all of the gaskets needed to pull the turbo and the exhaust manifold to port my wastegate and to also port the turbo intake runners on the manifold. All of this will be done prior to the new exhaust being run.
