Hey Everyone,

Sorry for the misleading title to this post, I was hoping it would get some attention. I am the proud new owner of Will (Negative)'s old FD. I've actually had the car for a while now, just been busy. I took the car down to my friend Travis' shop (HYPERSPORTS) and had them tune it. They did 2 pulls and had the car tuned in about an hour. It made 280 rear wheel horsepower and 245 lbs of torque. I guess that's pretty good for stock engine, stock twins (non seq) and the bolt ons it has. I finally got around to cleaning her up and taking some pics. Sorry for the small pics, I had to resize them (noob here) I think you can click them to make them bigger. Also, I just ordered a brand new flame suit size M so until that gets here, go easy on me.......

Very clean lines. Looks good mate!!

 

I miss that car around here. Take care of her.

Awesome car. I love white FD's and the 99 spec front end looks great. Congradulations on the getting the FD. Good luck with it.

 

Alooha man,
Where you located on Oahu? Good to see more islanders on the boards! Nice clean ride you got. I like the white. I haven't seen any white on my island. Very nice!

 

Thanks for all the great replies guys, I will take great care of this car. BigIslandSevens, Howzit Brah! I'm in Waikiki, next time I'm out there I'll come check you out!

Aloha! VERY NICE RX7 you got there! I love white FD's, and that spot you took the pictures at...let me guess..somewhere in east side, sandys? If im mistaken, then sorry! Anywhoo I see that you live in Waikiki, I live in waiks too, maybe i'll see your car around. Its too bad that I don't have a fd due to finanical problems, but one day I will! I have one question, I didn't know that hypersports work on Rotarys, or any shops in hawaii that actually work on rotarys, that is the number one reason why I do not want a rx7, but the car is so damn irresistable. Again good luck and safe driving brah, ALOHA!

I thought hypersports was one of the only shops taht worked on rotorys...i heard wmr does too (but probably not as good as hypersports. the mazda dealership downtown side is the only dealership that knows how to work on these cars. They only work with oem parts though and are expensive as hell.

 

really trying to get that point acrossed huh?
nice lookin' car but its too bad you guys have a rainbow on the license plates

 

Nice. Have always liked the white FDs.

 

for a second there i though you bought Sean's FD as its white and in Hawaii kai. on closer inspection i did not see any of the dents from when a few guys pounded on it in waikiki haha. you should have taken the pics at maunalua bay though, you could have done some doughnuts there (just kidding, there is a police substation right across the street now so even i dont screw around in there anymore!)


in anycase, nice car. i have yet to see a 99spec front end in person.

 

??? are you serious?

 

Aloha Sonny, so *you're* the one who picked up Will's car! I asked him who bought it and he said somebody in Hawaii - I was just there a few months ago on vacation! Anyway, I sold Will the shift **** that's in your car. Congrats on the new ride - it's one of the nicest FDs I've ever seen.

 

Hey,

Thanks for the comments. Actually, HYPERSPORTS doesn't do any engine work on rotaries, it's just that they have experience tuning them with the Power FC and are one of the few shops here with a dyno. Yeah, not too many people down here know a lot about rotaries (including myself) but I am planning on learning how to do the engine rebuild on my own. I know what you mean about financial problems, I have actually been e-mailing Will (Negative) about this car for over 4 months. I was lucky he still had it when we sold our condo! And Bro, don't let the fact that nobody here works on RX-7's dissuade you from buying one. Honestly, when I first found this forum, it had me thinking twice, but now I know it was worth it. Get yourself an FD Bro!!

Sonny

 

Nice FD. May be if you are in Oahu I be able to see you around in it next month when I get there.

 

Yeah,

I think I spoke to you once over the phone, we were talking about a lifted truck or jeep? Sorry I missed you when you were here. You might've seen me driving to work, my car is like the only white FD in Waikiki (I think). Thanks and take it easy!

Sonny

 

damn i miss hawaii! Some of the roads there must be sick for the FD.

Are you guys from the states orginally? Just curious b/c when i was there for my hooneymoon there were alot of younger guys that just piced up and moved there...not a bad idea.

Sorry to be off topic.

 

Thanks Bro!

I don't know who Sean is but I hope nobody pounds on my car in Waikiki!! So do you hang out with the other FD guys? And the 99spec front end......it TOTALLY makes the car, this car looks 10 times better in real life than in pictures!! See you on the road!!

Sonny

 

Hey Matty,

Not sure about the other guys but I myself was born here. At 7 years old I was taken to Camp Zama, Japan and raised there (Dad was Military). Also stationed in Yongsan, Korea and across the US. Returned here at 18.

Sorry to be off topic too!

Sonny

 

serious about what? look at the plates on his car and you'll notice the rainbow between (arcs slightly above in the center) the two black blocks he put over his numbers... and yes, i think its a bit but that's just me

 

Beautiful! Thanks for giving me an idea of what my 7 will look like.

99 spec front on white.

Victor

 

Sonny, NICE! You're making me miss my old FD.
