A customer of ours has one in the works right now. We have his engine built and its almost ready to get put on the engine dyno. The car is at the body shop just down the street from us.

Just making some wild suggestions here...... Anyone who wants to chip in money to build a Veilside Rx-7?? Let's find a FD chassis, and order the Veilside parts from Japan, then build a Veilside Rx-7, rebuild the engine, etc.......... It becomes our Rx-7 club car or something, lol...........

Why not just give me the cash.

I am the one building the Veilside RX7. It's my car at RPM's and Fearless customs.

Yeap Mattdes 26's FD. When the body shop talked to Veilside about mounting the kit, they told him only 16 of these kits have ever been produced and sold, 8 of them went into the F&F movie. So there aren't many of these kits out there.
