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

 

LOL....... please read what you have written, I believe you just contridicted yourself.

"probably have no idea to the workings of the car "

"On real modifications however Australia is at the top of the pack"

Lets be honest here, Lebo's buy and modify these cars to the point where are they are ghetto'd to with an inch of their life.

 

Guess you boys haven't heard of the Porto Ricican's

 

uh, oh.. lol

 

You can try these guys as an alternative to Ausrotary...

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?

(New paragraph signifys to start of a new point/idea)

On real modifications however Australia (notice Australia and FD Owners is not the same thing) is at the top of the pack.

 

But you stipulate that the majority of Australian owners have probably no idea to the workings of the car, yet Australians are at the top of the pack in modifying them I presume. This doesn’t really make any sense and in actual fact contradicts what you have said, plain and simple.

I like the lessons in punctuation and spelling, thankyou.

 

Thanks man, I will check it out.

 

No I did not, try reading it again

 

I think we should hug it out

 

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 ...

(now back to the bitchin... )

 

Hey mate, thats good to hear!

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

 

2002 FD, very very nice indeed. Congrats

 

What he said ^^

 

Thanks man, btw Ive searched all of the forums for a simple questions, can you install a cat back exhaust on an FD with out any issues?

If you know of any help links regarding this please send them through.

Cheers

 

Yes you can. Current wisdom states you can do two of the three at the same time but not all at once - a cat back, mid-pipe or intake - without an issue. Anymore than that without an ecu change/replacement/update and the motor tends to go lean and boom.

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

 

I have visions of the FD's from down under

 

lol @ RU CUTE and PLEEZN

 

Double LOL

 

I have to say theres A mint black batty in the december issue of fast fours and rotarys. Black. 700hp and work meister rims yes please.

But the common mistake in OZ is 13b turbo and 17inch simmon fr's on EVERYTHING rotor.

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

 

Amen to that!!!! but I do have to say there is nothing wrong with a turbo 13b!

 

its RU CUT not ru cute. and let me tell you that it has the power to back up the plates.

 

Like I said, both eastern states cars...

I've only seen one car like that over here in the west, and the owner got ridiculed so much that he sold it..........probably to a guy in the eastern states...havn't seen the car for years...
