BEAUTIFUL FD!

You are missing the low engine cover... but I assume you know that.

Also.. those rims come with center caps or no?

While I'm not super crazy about anything but a rotary living in the engine bay, I'd definitely take the 2JZ, RB or even the V8 over the 4G. That swap made no sense to me at all, and he kept trying to get me to do it HAHAHA. Yeah I don't think so.

And so I don't get my peepee slapped for not posting pics, here is my most recent engine bay pic. Needs paint, major cleanup and a MUCH bigger filter, but that's in the works right now, along with several other small projects.


And I already posted this pic before but it's the last good pic I had taken cause I suck at taking pics and my camera isn't the greatest either.

I know u didnt post to start a **** storm, but i did. Its too much fun. I guess judging by your logic, you are getting sick of all those boring single turbo Fd's running around. Since that is what 50% of this forum is.

So, you could legalize those rims but not Volks?? I would re-coat the Volks before I put those on the FD. But its your car...

the problem is, japanese rims don't have a "kba" number, which is neccesary to get them legalized. those rims have one ... i could ask anyway, but in average case i don't have any chance.

Florida people have some weird obsession with power, Supra owners are the same way.

Phil I agree with you on that one, those wheels are disgusting.

Pics thread contribution time!

Here I had some fun with my new camera and the assistance of jhnrx7's lights....(Bridgeported12a's car) Once he purchases suspension and removes the 99 wing it'll look so sexy. It's an amazing base.... .



Not the perfect shot, but I rather like how it came out.

lol alright ill play, ill agree to a certain extent, however its the engine itself that makes it...ehh screw it you heard that part before lol i am enjoying experimenting with different ways to make rotors more reliable as well as some custom turbo setups so its all still new

as for the swap...ive already met 5-6 people local that own one..so its nothing special...if you modify those covers to say Rx-7 ill throw you a little ohh and maybe a little ahhh on the side, maybe a turbo setup for its sheer complex looking piping...but just a plain old v8 swap...ehhh you just made it more reliable and stuffs

and to keep with the pictures
