Just showing off my FD (pics)

I finally took some good pics of my cars current setup. Changes for 04' are:

bodyshop:

had my Pettit rear flares molded, deleted rear quarter lights
changed to FEED front fenders
added FEED carbon fiber sideskirts
had the engine bay color matched
fresh coat of Porsche Arctic Silver

outside:

had the centers of my CCW's stripped, shot-peened, and clear anodized (for a light grey/gunmetal look)

inside:

Defi egt, FP, boost, and controller.

under the hood:

custom GT35/40 setup. fab work done by local friend/shop owner
Keith's rails w/ 756cc/1680cc
MicroTech LTX w/wideband
I polished pretty much everything I could
Apexi Dual N1
Koyo radiator


All this, and the damn thing has a blown motor now We blew it on the dyno, I'm pretty sure it was from timing. It laid down 325whp @ 10psi and 367whp @ 13psi on the run before it blew.

I'm pretty sure that I will be going 3-Rotor for the next setup. But for now, it's just a garage queen

I'll link a few photos, sorry they are so large. You can view all 66 pics that I took here

Very nice RX7.


All you need is a Nice steeering wheel(Nardi deep corn and Personal rally for my FD/FC) setup... and a bucket seat(RECARO SPG/Racer My choose for my FD/FC)
this car will look even better and function too.

The rear flares look much better now that they are molded. Interesting mixture of parts and nice to see that there isn't a huge spoiler hanging off the back.

Awesome. Your car looks amazing. Love the fenders, love the front end, love the engine, love the car.

I agree with diyman25, a steering wheel and a recaro (or whatever seat you chose) would complete the interior and would be completely functional.

Good work.
