Rotary related?

Full non-sequential conversion, enlarged wastegate, custom cold air intake, ASP Racing large intercooler, HKS EVC III, Mostly Mazda (M2 Performance) reprogrammed ECU, SX rising rate fuel pressure regulator and fuel filter, Cosmo fuel pump, Crane HI-6, Tri-point stainless downpipe, Tri-point stainless midpipe, ASP cat-back, FTL billet aluminum sway bar mounts, Racing Beat front and rear sway bars, Hawker Genesis relocated to the bins, Porterfield R4 brake pads, power steering eliminated, air bags eliminated, air conditioning eliminated, fuse box rewired, '96-spec Efini tail lights, black carpet, R1 seats, Mazdatrix floor mats, GReddy 60mm peak hold boost gauge, and a few other things I'm probably forgetting... all done during July-August 1997, with approximately 4,000 miles on the new '95 I had just bought in April...

And then there's the V8 conversion...

yeah, but not all of us know about his life BEFORE torque. Or the promise of torque. Or the hope of torque. Or....

Anyway, nice to see where he's been. I think most of his old posts have been wiped, and I've often wondered what threw him into the lap of Satan.. er... cough... V8's!

This from a confirmed MOPAR fanatic. Of all the Domestics...

The round-style tail lights that you used to have to pay $625 for from Japan, but now you can just have someone convert your stock lights for about $75-80...

It would have been awfully hard to find '99-spec lights in 1997...

It's just easier to list the tail lights as '99-spec now and group them with the other '99-spec body parts available, but the Efini RX-7 has had round tail lights since 1996.
