Agreed. I've seen that somewhere before... Maybe in one of the RX-7 Magazines....

black99 01-27-02 10:48 PM

yeah it is... I do believe like a year or maybe it's been two years already, when speedlab.com was still in business I believe they had that car for sale on their webpage...

potatobbq 01-28-02 12:38 AM

i think that's a one of a kind knightsports fd...

forcefed93 01-28-02 12:56 AM

Thank god they only made one....:wtf: :puke:

CCarlisi 01-28-02 01:13 AM

LOVE IT:) how can you say it's ugly? it reminds me of the callaway C12. I think it looks much better than the RE lights and the stock bumper, far more purpose built. OF course I also love how the Subaru SVX looks so maybe it's just my taste or lack there of.

I wonder where they got the lights from, I can't imagine they molded them just for this concept. If anybody can point me in the right directly let me know. I've posted about this several times and nobody seems to know. Chuck can you pull some strings?

eitan 01-28-02 01:26 AM

It looks like some psycho anime character.. eek.

CCarlisi 01-28-02 01:37 AM

the lower part of the bumper is kind of freaky and the neon yellow is a little extreme, but look at the actual lights!

kelrx7r1 01-28-02 01:42 AM

those lights scare me:p:

yes, that ssm is nice. is taht your's???

cewrx7r1 01-28-02 08:03 AM

The lights probably work better than most. But, the radiator and oil inlets with the lights together look like a large smilely face.

Put on some Ronal BEAR wheels, and we will have either a girl's or gay's RX-7.

Malachi151 01-28-02 08:28 AM

I like the rear spoiler.

RedFD 01-28-02 09:07 AM

Id like to see those lights with a different bumper. They look better than all the other light kits if you ask me.

jdhuegel1 01-28-02 12:01 PM

Is that a bug of some sort??? Call National Geographic...

eitan 01-28-02 12:02 PM

You.. like those lights? HAH! Those look like MR-Spyder lights, which are so disgusting. Those lights don't work with the car's lines at ALL.

1FAST7 01-28-02 12:03 PM

Its just changing the car too much! The lights sorta look like the ones on the MR2-spyder... and the front bumper makes the car look something other than an rx-7...

eitan, were you using the "preview other members' postings" feature? Too much of a coincidence, dude.

7-sins 01-28-02 02:05 PM

Looks a lot like the MR-Spyder, really unique style for a FD though.

TpCpLaYa 01-28-02 09:38 PM

alright guys im here to provide you with some more pics of this FD phenomenom(sp?)...anyways here they are

TpCpLaYa 01-28-02 09:39 PM

some more....

TpCpLaYa 01-28-02 09:40 PM

one more..enjoy, it also has some funky tailights to go with the overall crazy kit it has..

c00lduke 01-28-02 09:42 PM

I wonder how many RX-7 fall to the same fate as that each year?

TpCpLaYa 01-28-02 10:05 PM

i see sumwhat of a resemblence......SUMWHAT

EunosFD 01-28-02 10:58 PM

Yeah I remember that one from SpeedLab too...I think it was built by Knight Sports, but I'm not positive. They wanted like $27k for it think. Definately...umm...unique looking. I'd take it...of course then again I don't have an FD anymore either :p:

Is this kit available? I think 1200 for the RE lights is a litle crazy, but I would be will to pay that much for the kS lights, and then another chunk for the front bumper....

Actually I thought of the Cala when I saw that, I like the lights on that FD.

Anyone know anything about the car or where to get the kit, here's another pic with "evolution FD3S" in the caption

http://www.rx-7.net/uploads3/921048102.jpg

A front end like that would solve the poor lighting problem of the cwest or re's

HKS had a similar one a long time ago I think, it was silver and was a one-off.

Yep, not only that, it was made by Amamiya. Check out FD Kai Mag, It's about halfway down the page. They've also got a different shot of the RE scissor door FD. Along with some sweet photos of the Panspeed 7.

Actually, even farther down the page, there are other pics of the car in this thread, and something about it being 'de-tuned to 380hp'.

CCarlisi 01-29-02 08:58 PM

"you acutally want that kit? ewwwwwwwwwwwww"
-rx7 rage

Absolutely. It's one of the most original kits I've seen to date. In comparison, I think the RE lights look like an afterthought (reminds me of when mitsubishi slapped fixed lights on the 3000gt near the end of production). Also notice the rear bumper on the KS car, it actually extends up to the tail light section. Again I think that looks much cleaner than the RE solution of creating a bumper and then slapping a light cover on. The KS car looks hardcore, but at the same time it has an OEM pureness that is lacking with the other kits.

Callaway uses similar lights on the C12. I wonder if they would be willing to sell them seperately(without the car).
