yeaaappp might as well jk i think because the car was down for a bit i lost interest but once we started her back up with all my mods... it was love all over again.

haha yea i do miss the NSX but each car has its own pros/cons. i honestly feel like with the right supporting mods/tune/etc the rx7 is better then the NSX. Although once i get a 3 car garage it'll be rx7/nsx/supra as i adore all three.

95Whitepep - yep keeping her. if u want u can come see the mods i've done the car in pics do not do justice haha

looking good! My favorite color for the FD

Did you use the 99 spec support bar or did you just bolt on the 99 skin?

If you have the time you should try to find the paint they use on radiators. Regular paint doesn't do as good a job at heat transfer. The result looks great, don't get me wrong but if you're going for best performance the black paint for radiators is the way to go.
