First new pictures of the year.










I took some more, but those came out best, also the only ones I botherd putting a border on.

Thanks for the comments

Yes, that's a red interior, i never realized how rare it was until even the RX7club members were asking about it

I painted the calipers over winter while the car was on jack stands. I bought a $14 duplicolor kit from Advance autoparts. Didn't take too long, hardest part was cleaning the calipers, and filing the Mazda logo smooth. Filed the logo, then painted the calipers, then wet sanded the logo to get the shiney Mazda.

If you do use the duplicolor kit, buy a good Testors brush from a hobby shop, the brush that comes with the kit sucks.

Eibach Track pro kit. they're about 33% stiffer than stock, and work great with the stock touring shocks after a good alignment.

Looks good. You might want to wash your rims though, there's a LOT of brake dust on them.

Those are my track wheels, I painted them black so I wouldn't HAVE to wash them!

I'm doing the same thing. I picked up a 2nd set of stockers that are in EXCELLENT shape, so I'm gonna use them for my daily rims, and keep the second set for track rims/tires.
