looking good, lets see the pics of the seats when you get them

 

Car looks nice. I was a bit hesitant on what color wheels look good on a blue/green rx7, but the WORK's look great. I would paint the hood but that's me. Great job!

 

pics as promised

 

how much did you end up paying for the seats? did you measure the shoulder bolsters? I think they're supposed to be under 23" up top to clear the door panel and 22 down low to be able to retaine the stock back/forward adjustability..

 

looking great alex

 

also...how were your Water/oil temps out there this past weekend on the track? I get my oil cooler kit in a couple weeks....then i'll join you out there..

 

Thanks Jaime

Manny the seat I did a extensive search bro because there isn't that many seat that fit the Fd. Lucky for me I found a thread on seats that fit or don fit on the Fd so I was saved. My oil temps where 180-190ish the whole time and my water temps where avg around 190 degrees.

Overall the cooling system I have has proven on the streets and highways. The last couple of days where bad and they still stayed the same bro. What coolers are you getting?

 

I just wanted to put this out there. I am all about buying the best of the best and quality items. Sometimes the best of the best and quality can be found for a whole lot cheaper if you are not picky.

lwnslw- Yup it isthe ebay one. Quality is superb i was amazed on how it feels and quality. I did some home work and found out there really isnt much of a diffrence in wheels between the $250 one and this one. They both have the original nardi box as they arrive, horn is 100% identical to the real one. The *** engraving is actually engraved and not written on it. Some people say these where nardi that never passed QC so they were passed off. I dont know bro I had it for over a week and I can honestly say I am happy as hell. Better than a autozone grant or me spending $300 on a wheel


KKMpunkrock2011- pics of the diffrence

 

nice nice....well I can't wait to see them in!!

I bought a used kit off a member on here. But they're both Earl's 25 row coolers.. I'm excited to install them and see what they do to my temps...

 

Alex,
Thanks.... I agree with you 100%... why spend $300-$400 on a steering wheel....when this one looks identical..
When I built my TII powered 1st Gen I bought a Momo look-a-like for $50 BUT everything else on the car cost BIG $$$$ so the steering wheel funds were low... either way it served it's purpose PLUS it matched my color scheme perfectly... LOL

Thanks again for the honesty and review... gonna look into ordering one now...

Joe

 

I am jealous of your steering wheel

 

Sick FD, really happy for you. Can definitely tell you're a Marine cause of the dopey friggin haircut (low fade all the way baby!) and you're ILBE pack and iso mat pokin out from behind your awesome awesome car. Congrats bro

 

^^^^lol

thanks guys, this weekend I am doing the 99 spec tail light mod, re-finish and paint the front lip, and side rock guards.

 

Just a couple pics from my iphone until i redo the above mentioned. I lifted the car up on my hobby shop to tighen and inspect the under side of the car. Also to see if theres any leaks.

 

yup in the back of the adapter it has two circles where the two plastic prongs go in. my only issue is it cancels the turn signal when you make a 90 degree turn but when turning on a 45 degree turn it wont cancel. No biggie though.

 

thanks man, car looks great.

 

Seats are in figment was superb no modification or fabbing needed. The bride rails also have a mount for you oem seat belt so that help retain my oem belt. I will get a 5 point for track days . Not so much of an update but I got my broadway mirror and cx3.

This weekend I will have a Frp re-amemiya diffuser wich will be in temp place of the street diffuser.

Car looks great. Is that the Apexi Noir muffler?

 

DAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNN Welcome back Alex!! Come visit your P-units so we can hang one night. Sweet ride as always...

 

Thanks man, well been pretty busy took a vacation and spent alot of money so there will be no buying of parts for a while. So what I will be doing is minor mods here and there to keep me busy. I removed the oem wing and plugged the holes with some pretty cool plastic screw on grommets. If i dont find another hatch without the holes I will get this one welded when I get ready to re paint the car in December.

I will be doing the following
Rolling the fenders not pulling
Powder coating the intercooler pipes and air box
lowering the car
steam cleaning the engine
