Just looking at these pics makes me think that this is the kind of rotary build that Jim Labrect would have done if he chose to stick with rotary power. Super detailed with unique thought and intent on every step of the process (however, I'm sure Chip's a lot nicer than Jim was)
I love Chip's quote where he says "enjoy.... my wallet is not." That's when you know that the sickness has set in and you're a true addict. When you have a vision of perfection and can't stop yourself, even though your common sense and wallet says "stop spending."

To cap it really short story, the money i spend on my gold digger its left over cash that in general male habits will go to ,casino, Mistress/ *****, drugs or alcohol...
.. Mi mistress/drugs is my gold digger. I don't believe in credit and taking loans out to fulfil my wasteless dream with this car. No dept what so ever here
... That is another reason why the car is a bit slow on getting finished .
A bit to much info,, but what the heel, we are a rx7 family
.... 3-4 months tops will have video of her purring like a tiger

By design , the hydraflow clamps/connections do flex and are able to take a msive amount of vibration similar clamps are used on the space shuttle

Mate, you really need to stop posting these pictures up
. Whenever I read and see posts by you, I feel like scraping my car
. This build and your work has impressed me so that. I have probably seen this build thread over 10,000 times and I have actually copied the link of this thread into my signature on the UK rotary forums.
Mate, this car is a truely Modified FD. I don't have words to praise your work,dedication,commitment towards gold digger
I love this build thread-I think I am getting emotional so I better leave
