ON RHD FD *CANADA* Big Build!

My Build!
1992 Mazda RX-7, Type R (R1?)
Currently:






My Plans are to
-Part out most of the car, aero, wheels, suspension, drivetrain,wheels and start fresh. Being a Japanese import, the car and its parts are in great shape. Started working on a turbo setup for LS? Series engine, among looking into different swap kits. My other yellow FD has the hinson kit, which is pretty good.

I am SUPER picky. When it comes to cool parts, im all about it. See:


Panspeed Catback (4000+ new?iirc)


I have a bunch of other stuff, just trying to decide if im using them or not.

everyone hates on those "euro taillights" lol.

Good luck on the build, and if u like it keep them, if not ditch em. IMO the stock tails are perfect the way they are. But to each their own.

I bought the car as it sits. The taillights are being switched in favour of some kouki models. Ive had a few pms, regarding the exhaust. I will sell it , for the right price.
