We are going through the car. it is getting:
Rebuild and streetport
Prolight flywheel and Act clutch
4 X 850cc injectors and walbro pump
Vacuum line simplification and pulley kit
Koyo radiator and AST elimination
Banzai poly mounts and oil pan brace
PFS SM intercooler and duct
DP, MP and RB single tip catback
Power FC
Custom intake system on the twins

That is about is, there may be one or two other little things.

LOL!! Considering the engine was completely seized, it surely will.


Tanabe makes multiple catbacks, some are 93db with the stock cat, others are N1 style ultra loud cans

Hey, Chris is a good guy. I'd send anyone with a rotary to him for sure. He won't ever screw you, price is always fair, and he'll never sugar coat what's wrong. Can't ask for more than that.

19s are always going to look big on an FD. I'd never go more than 18 on an Rx7, and would probably go with 17s. But yeah - if he likes it, they don't look that bad. Just a little high

skyjacker suspension for the lose.

run ground effects and lowering coils/coilovers and any rims will look 10x better.

He has only owned the car for a few weeks. After we get done building/modifying, I am sure he will tackle the suspension which is 100% original at this moment.
