Have a question for you FD boys/girls
Ok, I am in the process of trying to buy a fd.
AND...someone (Mr. Anonymous) has scared me to death. He informed me that there is a chance I'm going to smell like exhaust everytime I get out of the car. WELL, I have to admit, I may be tom-boyish in some categories (taekwondo, cars, etc) but I am still WAY TOO GIRLEY to be smelling like EXHAUST. And, I have noticed that some RX7 people do kinda stink like exhaust...I just never put two and two together.
What's yalls opinions.....? IF this is true...I'm going to have to join the dark side and buy a Supra or something instead.
Love,
Diana

Just keep the stock dp and main cat on and you most definitely will not smell like exhaust. Even with a ss dp and high flow cat you should be okay, but may smell a wee bit.

Whoever told you this is full of ****. If you take the cats off of any car it will stink like exhaust. As long as you leave the main cat on, it will be no different then any other car.

GotBoostd7....here's my deal....I dont want like some Single Turbo, modified up the *** 7. All I want is to be able to beat the local riceboys, 'Stangs, etc... but at the same time... being girley and smellin' good takes total priority over having a fast car. =))
But thanks for yall answering back so fast, I feel somewhat better.

You don't need to have a single turbo to kick *** on the streets. You'll be able to man-handle 99.999% of the cars you'll ever encounter with just the stock sequentials and all the bolt-on's.
The gassy smell comes when you throw on the mid-pipe...I used to have a hi-flo cat. and I never smelled like exhaust...but now I have the mid-pipe and I stink...but I don't care...
Stick with a hi-flo and you won't have any worries....and try not to camp around the exhaust while the car is running
Btw, I went to your website, and you have very pretty eyes

Yeah Ive been looking since December....I'm really getting impatient. I know what I want...black...preferrabley 94....5 speed...but NICE & CLEAN...I don't want my fd to look like a 93 or 94. But its getting so hard to wait...I'm having to convince myself daily to not switch colors to one that's easier to find. =((((((

If you're picky about the color your gonna wait a long time.
Specific color, low miles, good condition, 94, 5-speed....
You'll definitely have to search nation wide and be willing to ship and/or pick the car up.
Like I said, I looked for 1.5 years and still had to settle for red.

Well, you just need to have it repainted then That's what I did 
And, I never got out of my car smelling exhaust, not even after solo racing... Mr. Anonymous must be out of his mind...

Lives on the Forum
The smell is from running a midpipe: no cat. Makes the car smell like *** not to mention the soot on the bumper.
Tell Mr. Anonymous to put the cat on and shower; the two of you will be just fine

Dy,
Go for the Supra. It has more cargo space and has a bullet proof engine that will last you for a long time. But if you do get a seven at least Mr Anonymous can fix it for you. Are you keeping the stang as a daily driver?

Being girly = not my thing. Give me the grease, exhaust, and even the burnt tranny fluid
