the foil looking stuff is to try and repel as much heat from the intake as possible, my hedders make the underhood temp crazy hot.

the interior is pretty stripped, no carpet and most panels are gone. light is better especially when i am 270lbs

when i bought the car the parking brake wasn't working properly, it wouldn't release all the way and the brakes would stay on a little, so being me i took them off to clean and fix up, that was 5 years ago and still havn't put it back on so i took out the lever, just got in the way

Meets my qualificatoins, big *** heavy stereo that looks way off in that car, red interior pieces, ricey quadruple tips on your mufflers, colorful windshield wipers, unpainted fresh air headlight cover, ghetto rigged intake, big giant tach (when you already have one that works fine) ... but whatever floats your boat. It is still nice condtion RX-7.

get rid of those exhaust tips, they belong on a Del Sol.

put some carpetting on that sub box and around those speakers.

clean your engine

paint that headlight cover

match the colors inside the car and out. (steering wheel doesnt match radio surround, outside of car, engine bay, etc.)

other than that, you're car is pretty sweet, and in damn good shape. i know what a privelege it is to own an FC in great shape.

Dunno, but if you're hardcore, you prolly wouldn't have the huge *** subs to drag it down. Bet it sounds sweet tho.

Outside looks nice (except those Camaro looking tips), interior confuses me. You stripped it so it weighed less and then you put a HUGE sub box in it?

Maybe you should cover that rust in your engine bay with some of that foil.

why do you need a giant tack mounted to the side? the stock tach is just as big, in the right spot, and is probably more accurate. and those tips look so out of place its not even funny. and same with the steering wheel.

if y'all were 6'6" u would know why i have a different tach.

The stock steering wheel is way to big, my legs don't fit. the little one, which unfortunately is the wrong color, oh well, covers the numbers on the stock tach from 3500 to 6500 and the turn signal lights, so i can't see most of the guage in the rev range that i am most likely going to be in most of the time. Also, according to the S-Afc which now covers the rest of the tach, says the stock tach is off a few hundred rpm's, and i like the shift lite, it's cool.

subs are just sitting in there and lift out very very easily(theifs beware igot a pager alarm so don't jack my ****)when i go out for non legal driving purposes

sorry i am very defensive over my baby rexxie. i wil try and calm down now and think of girls in water
