Who is right? Argument with friend

My friend thinks that Rx-7's are still being made in Japan, up until year 2000 or so. I thought they stopped making them in 96 or 97. Also, in this Rx-7, he thinks that the second pair of lights in the bottom is stock. He says that the second pair of light (the bottom one) comes stock. I think that the owner changed the second pair of lights. Please tell us who's right!

Thanks!

How about your both wrong? They still make FD's in Japan even to this day, and the only lights that came stock are the pop up lights.

Ok, I know that is a 99 j-spec front end, but what kind of intercooler is that? I like that... and if anyone knows what kind it is, do you know how much power it adds?

Wait, and allow me to catch my mistake!!! That is not a 99 j-spec front end, it is too square... I forgot who makes it though I have seen it before... but anyways still wondering about the intercooler.

Thats not the 99 Spec Front, only the combo lights in the bumber or standard OEM, the Front itself is the C-West Front, and I'm not sure about the IC, but I believe its the Greddy unit, it adds about 300 HP.
Since the car belongs to a member of the forum you would be better off asking him.
