I would be honored if a rex like this honored our presence in our (houston) club meets. A lot of work went into this, and for better or worse, it turned out pretty well, not the greatest, but not f'ing bad. This actually makes me proud to own a 10AE thats getting restored. I even emailed a link to all my civic buddies (yea, I like shooting fish in a barrell, easy pickings ) and when I say that I mean I really like it. Earl, good job on the (earlier deemed) R-Camino-7. Let whoever owns the car do what they want, even if it is controversial.

you need a fiberglass truck bed cover fool! fill in those rivets and overfender edges. it can look good with a little more work. it needs smoothing and a good basecoat/clearcoat paint job.

yes
those stacks would look SICK on that siete camino

it really looks kinda cool though... imagine when you flame it, would look pretty cool...

maybe a button that will make you run very very rich so you can blow black smoke?

I would never do this to a clean 7, but it did get me thinking about my beater :P I think a 1st gen Impreza style station wagon graft would do it for me...

I think it needs another foot or more of bed and a tailgate so it can be used to haul more than *** -and look a little less like a Fiero :O

W/ the stiff race/drift suspension and toe eliminators you can actually put some weight in the back of a 7 and have it handle safely.

Yeah, thanks for posting despite the expected flames.

So...after a couple of these...

http://www.youtube.com/v/Ucne66lRRuU





...I noticed my rear-end was starting to get tired. My diff was basically gone, and you can actually hear my **** clunking and thudding in that last one.


Drop my rear subframe, and low and behold...

bummer.




So, off to Drift Office I went, in search of an answer to all my woes...







...and found it. Thanks Drift Office/Mark/aphxero!!!





...starting off with a new and reinforced subframe.




...add a dash of Uras subframe spacers.







...then mix well with a generous amount of vinyl...and some neons...
