1993 BB Touring Build Thread
 

Thought it would be nice to keep a log of my car. I've enjoyed reading the other threads on here and have never made one before. :icon_tup:

I purchased my 1993 Black RX-7 Touring in April of this year from an older gentleman that owned it since 2003 when it had ~33,000KM on it. It was pretty much a garage queen for most of that time and was barely driven. It was also kept in pretty much stock shape as well. Unfortunately it wasn't driven since late 2013 so there was a bit of work to do to it.

When I received the car I immediately went to work with reliability mods. I wanted to get the car running properly and reliably before doing any "fun" mods to it. Unfortunately, while getting these done it was apparent that the coolant seal had gone bad and I had a full rebuild done to the motor. The car had 57,700KM at this point. Here's a list of what has been done to the car.

Mods on the car when I got it:
- Pettit downpipe
- Cusco strut bar
- Autometer A-pillar 3 gauge pod
- R1 front lip
