if for some reason the pics don't work click the link below

that's to my facebook so if you want send me a add.

I will update more as I go

Looking good man, what exhaust and coilovers did you go with?

Looks good. I had a set of HIDs that looked very similiar to yours that I got off ebay and they messed up in 2 weeks.

They were under warranty so I got a new set and never put them on. I gave them to a guy on here and he ran into the same problem. He just took them apart and resoldered and sealed the ballasts and they work fine.

Good luck! Hope to see you running around during the cruise. Maybe we will get lucky and line them up at a stoplight. Last time I went some guy in a white s5 n/a was so cocky that his engine had more horsepower than mine. I smoked him with an extra person in the car =).

godspeed full exhaust and topspeed pro 1 coilovers

haha I think I know who you are talking about but I don't race

more pics, s13 pig nose lip still needs some tweaking but it will work for now

nice build...

when you put your car on stands....how solid was it?...I have my fc sitting on four stands as well and for some reason I feel they are too close together..

thanks.

thanks! I've been slowly bringing it back to life.

it seems pretty solid to me I mean I wouldn't give it a big shove or anything but it should be fine chillin out on 4 stands

more low, fenders are rolled and new shoes

what sides and rear over bumper are they bro?

looking good, it needs some body fixing soon

I honestly have no idea, I bought them off my buddy and he didn't even know
I would like to find out tho

thanks, it does need some body work but not too worried about that at the moment

Those wheels look much better on your car!
When you decide to get some new coilovers to go lower give me a good price on those.

check out my build thread if you want to know how to make your coil overs lower i have the same as your just no damper adjustment. any shock shop should be able to do it.

your car would be so sick if it was panel beaten and resprayed the red. i really like it! some crown vic's would look mean as well

I checked out your build pretty sick man, I don't have any shops like that near me but I'm pretty happy with the stance it has. My 7 is a 4 lug and probably won't be going 5 lug anytime soon after replacing all that brake work but I do plan on crown vic wheels lol

Looks sweet dude, nice build.

thank you I really do appreciate the love


here are a couple better pics

so sad on the dents :(

http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...02390854_n.jpg

http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...21371834_n.jpg

this one shows the dent in the passenger headlight cover but I switched both out the other day for much better ones just no pics right now and I was looking at my car and found new dents and what looks like someone took a cup or something and scratched the top of my car :( looks like I'm gonna start looking for new doors and possibly wide body sometime in the future...

http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...14409505_n.jpg

shes pritty beat up bro but i think it looks sick! i much prefer this sort of style to the huge body kits i realy like it man

if i had the readys to get them type of body parts over here mine would look the same expect id keep the duckbill spoiler lol
speaking of would you sell it to me dirt cheap and post it to new zealand? pm me

I'm keeping all my old parts but it looks like a dog used it as a chew toy anyways haha I'll get the dents and all that lined out sometime its just not a priority at the moment.

thank you, much appreciated

I'm gonna keep all my turbo goods but I think I'm gonna go a different route with it, I'm gonna leave it n/a for the time being I might go the turbo route sometime down the road but I really wanna get some t2 housings do a peripheral port and 50mm itb's, on injectors I'm thinking 850cc primaries and 1000cc secondaries any input on injectors would be greatly appreciated. I've been researching since I know some will say to do that I just like getting input on stuff.

YES THATS A GREAT IDEA!!!!! x2 id1000cc will be heaps.
see my thread on it
https://www.rx7club.com/naturally-aspirated-performance-forum-220/injector-size-13b-peripheral-port-989019/
all so john who is building the 4rotor fc has the same injectors.
itb's you have a hole lot of choice mine i are 50mm each and are off a arctic cat snow mobile they were about 120, but there is options like injection perfection they have a cool itb set up.

your awsome bro i like your style lol

haha arctic cats are exactly what I've been looking at 1000cc 4 wheelers and snow mobiles, I just can't decide if I wanna do itb's per 2 runners or go 4 itbs aww decisions decisions lol I'll check your thread out on it for sure.

just put some love into it and u made it look great keep it up!

thanks! I really need to get started on the interior haha

its coming around I see.

slowly but surely, once I get these t2 parts sold more progress will be made.

here is the latest pic taken of the car

http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...57415513_n.jpg

spacers maybe to push the wheels out just a bit more? no i am not talking hellaflush by anymeans

I wouldn't mind to get spacers for the front bc with 205's they are close to the coilover so I wouldn't mind to have some up there and go with 215's

I finally got around to ordering some dtss eliminators just haven't had the chance to install em yet

nice car

What kind of exhaust is that

I'm not really sure I bought it second hand and I can't remember what he told me

:icon_tup:Nice Time line.

thank you:icon_tup:

Were did u get the h.i.d. kit from??

Looks good so far man keep it up!

I ordered the headlights and hid combo kit off ebay

thanks a lot I just got this job which I start the 21st so I'll finally be making some money to buy more of what I want lol

Hello! Sweet work on the build! Real quick, whats a good brand of HIDs?
Thanks

I'm wanting to go with DDM

Do you happen to know who the vendor of that HID kit was? They look great!

It's been so long I actually don't remember sorry I can't help

I added a new sticker lol

http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...39282958_n.jpg

love that sticker!

lol thanks I was actually surprised at how well it fit in the reflector almost like it was made to go there

What are those tail and headlights you put on, and where might I acquire them?
