You can still run a S5 motor with a S4 Maf and S4 wiring. I ran my car that way in 03'.

making progress with the turbo II. yesterday i took some time to fix the seats. mainly the drivers side bolster. it was spliced in half like most bolsters, we pulled the seats out of the car and uncovered the drivers side and pulled it out We fixed it with spray glue and some mattress foam. we were pleased but we still switched it with the passenger seats left side bolster. Both sides look very good.

After

Then we went to pull-a-part in Louisville and picked up a mazda 626 lip. test fit it on a rx7 on the lot and it was really close to what i wanted. Took it home, sanded it, fit it,painted it with spray can bed-liner. Then re fit it and installed.

after

RRTEC it really isn't that bad. it has some rust preventer on it and it will be fixed soon. i almost have everything in the car working! since i got my wiperswitch back from my neighbor fixed for $20. he is a electrical engineer and saved me a a lot of cash. after that i will be fixing the small rust and beating out the curb dent i guess? idk how that got there.

Nice clean FC inside-out.
A lil more drop would really set it off.

I got some Ground Controls on tociko blues....

Beautiful car, keep it clean, especially that interior. Fast FC's are easy to find, clean ones.....not so much
