New to RX7club.com
Hi all,
From Sydney and have just bought a 2002 FD RX7, can I just say that everyone in the world knows how to modify RX7's except Australians, I have spent a week viewing RX7club member cars and must say they look awesome
I then started looking at Ausrotary.com and have to say that I was embarressed!
Ive never ever seen so many badly modified FD's
wake up Australia! Sheesh!

On aesthetics I would have to agree with you, but remember the majority of FD owners in this country purchased the car solely on aesthetics, probably have no idea to the workings of the car and are generally all show no go.
On real modifications however Australia is at the top of the pack

Try reading it again; I have highlighted certain aspects of the post to help you with your reading. If you wish I can give you a lesson on spelling too?

I like the lessons in punctuation and spelling, thankyou.

If you both wanna get it right, it's actually only the EAST coast of Australia that ***** up FD's!
Over here on the WEST coast we keep 'em simple and sweet

It breaks my heart to see 20" Chrome wheels on a resprayed FD in Kermit the frog green with some sort of Ghetto sitcker on the back window with the springs removed completely making it look like the FD is scared of heights. LOL

Now if you upgrade the ecu, then all bets off. My single turbo non-ported motor made 430hp at the wheels. I have a Microtek ecu. All my mods are basically bolt on. I just pulled the motor apart yesterday.......time for a bridge port

Here in NZ its modgies and PP's. Animal.
