hahaha If I had a dollar for everytime I thought that to myself I could buy another 7!!!

Awesome 7 btw, what kind of bumper is that? Looks great!!!!

New Wheels/Tires, Thanks Rishie!

Thanks to AutoR&D! Wheels and Tires came mounted, balanced, exact air pressure in all 4 tires, ready to install and drive!!! Love it!

Thanks to GoodfellaFD3S for telling me to get 9" rims to run 255's all the way around! If you read this, thank you.

What do you guys think? I like them!

Nope. Stock suspension so far. I have some RSR downsprings to install, but they're not on the car yet.

What size rims are they? 17s? They look a little small to me. Lowering the car will help also.

I was gonna go for black rims, but lots of people said that it would be too much black on a black car... I don't know. They're kinda growing on me...

They are 17's. I'll put some downsprings on it and see what it looks like after that...

Good looking RX but why is the bumper cut out above the tail pipes?

Been keeping my FD and S13 at my dad's place. Both cars are salvage titles that I bought wrecked in insurance auctions and have been bringing back from the dead. S13 I started back in August of 05', FD I got the spring of 06'. The S13 is in better condition and has about 5 grand put into it more than the FD(in total cost) so of course it's more complete. But bit by bit, I've been working on them. Now if I can just get my FD running right, I could actually drive it. She's also sporting OEM tail lights on the left, and 99' spec tails on the right. Mismatched pair JDM STYLE! (actually one of the 99's were broken so i put an OEM on to limp it to my dad's from where I was working on it last Winter). Also, pics of my supercharged C5. She's a demon.









The Geo Metro belongs to my dad. IT'S NOT MINE. Also you can see his 97 GMC, my 96' Chevy trucks, and his two C4 Corvettes under car covers in the back ground. He's also got a 96' C4 convertible, and my old 01' Corvette Automatic somewhere else. We're car nuts what can we say.

Justin, if you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for that RX-7 at auction? Good idea!
