CA First Rx7! My Build

This is my first Rx7. I am almost done with my build just the little interior things left to do. I bought this car as a shell and have been putting it together for the past year. Please give me your opinions as far as my build. The engine has less than ten miles on the rebuild. It has a HKS t51s single turbo (old rare turbo).

Ence you specficaly asked for opnions on the build; please loose the lights. They really ruin the appearance. IMHO.

I don't like the lights either.. but to each their own. I think you shoudl lower the car about 4 inches... cause she's riding high... build specs on the motor etc?

I also don't care for the lights but it looks like you did a great job with the build. Give Ray a call and pick yourself up the plastic piece that goes under the windshield. It makes a hell of a difference in the way the car looks. Especially if you have new paint on it. I just got one for my build. Don't try to buy a used one because it will be extremely brittle. Good job!
