Talking Hi my first post here :)

Hiya all!
Been browsing this forum for a few weeks as a guest but today I registered.

I do not own a rx-7 yet but I am on the lookout for a good buy to modify. Problem is that in Sweden where I am located there are not many good ones.

So I guess I will have to buy a car from asia or something.

I just wanted to say hi to all and let you all know I am here

Denno.

Welcome to the forum mate

Be patient and find a good one - in the meantime, learn as much as you can, this forum is wicked for info.

G'day from DMRH

Good to see you are interested in the FD RX-7.

If you get one from Japan soon, try to buy the latest version known as the "series-8" or a 99+ model

While the 92 models are cheap over there, they are getting quiet old now & may come with expensive problems.

And you will make EVERYONE on this board from North America eternally jealous because we cannot get above a 95. So while you have very few FDs in Sweden, you have the opportunity to get much better FDs than us. So in that sense, you are better.

You'll want to read through the European regional forum here to find other owners and rotary shops.

Anyone got a good link to see some pics on the latest model?

I really love the style of the "fast and furious" car.
That model that is...does the later models look different?

And yeah I liked this car for over a year now..even though I have not seen one in real life lol! Maby I wont fit. Im 2 meters tall.

Just search around for a 99 spec FD. You will find a pic of one sooner or later.
