Lots has happened. Got lazy and didn't feel like updating anymore.
1) Destroyed my radiator twice...but salvaged it.
2) redid my vmount mounting
3) made a cool catch can out of a Sapporo Beer can
4) More low
5) Had cool pictures taken
6) Rubbed chassis harness...shorted out powerfc. unrepairable. Now have an expensive brick and more than likely making the switch to a haltech sprint re. So right now the car is just sitting...waiting....only got to really drive it for about a month :\
Plans are:
Haltech Sprint RE
Find fuel leak
Delete ABS
Do some rewiring
Pull Dash and do racecar stuff.
anyways cool pics:

Hahaa I hear you, I just turned 23 last month, bought my rx7 this summer and had to pay thousands to import etc. Some people say its a waste of time and money, but this is my passion. I just started learning basic tuning with the pfc so that should keep me busy all summer. Glad you came back, keep the updates coming and hopefully you can follow along on my thread too once it warms up a bit here.
Lucky for me I'm just past the school stage of things. I'm in the same field, but doing a job that pays twice as much and doesn't require any schooling lol. Gotta love mining.
Who took the most recent pics, they turned out nice :o

Yeah I figured I would come back to update some more haha. Been busy. Probably going to start a tear down of the car tomorrow. Tuning is something I'm still trying to learn at least the basics on.
Recent pics were from a photoshoot with some guys here in texas, you can see the full feature here: Rotary Relaxation – The Fitted Agency

The tunnel itself is super tricky. I'll be hating my life pretty soon on a FD myself. Only did this on mt 99 miata.

Some updates. Kinda going in the opposite direction of running at this point LOL. BUT got a sweet new MS shift **** from my girlfriend 
installed my new FFE injector inserts, made my LIM look like a spaceship, bought Alex's ABS delete kit and installed it, pulled the motor, resealed oil pan. Finally employed so hopefully haltech is coming soon!

Thanks Gordon! and yes the paint is supposedly like a honda red or something. I've parked it with other vr's and its a LOT brighter, less crimson-y
And Benny, its kinda just pushed in there. I cut the din slot and then made a panel that was slightly larger. It pushes in between some pegs. Ghetto, but it works lol
