Seeing that car of yours coming along nicely kind of brings back the days where I'd say I wanted a RX-7 when I was older and everyone just saying "yeah sure".
Well, what color are you going to paint it? Somehow the original rally paint-scheme seems the way to go ;) I love this cars, the Old grpB rx7 that i am a mechanic on, i love it |

i will come back with a price later when i have made for my own car, need to find out the total costs of it first, and also how much time i use on it. Its a big job with CF sice it requires heat and vacuum to get out the air from the CF and to get the epoxy to harden correct. |

Go Fish :D
The deal goes throuh another guy who builds racecars in his sparetime, can't really tell what he drives. Ohh well, let's hope someone buys it, will be a good downpayment on a house. |

Nice ... Thats the longest shifter that I've seen, closest one to that that I've seen was the one off Aaron Cake's car. He broke it off though lol. He wanted it even taller, probably just as tall as this to get the shifter right besde the steering wheel.
|
VERY nice stuff! That is the AWD car from Mazda right?
Your build is looking very nice as well. That is the best widebody kit that I have ever seen as well. |

since you used a FC subframe did you HAVE to move the engine back onto the fire wall, or is that something you chose to do.

If you have a chance a picture or two would be cool, more out of curiousity than anything. Just wanted to see how you went about supporting the steering column at the bottom.
i haven't made the support at the bottom of the steering colum yet, want to fit the engine and all that first to see how much space i have left, then I will make the lower support.. but can get you some pictures when i come home from work. |
