ya, I was just referring to your bumpers and skirts. definitely looks like bn or a knock off of bn but who cares as long as it looks good.
I'm TRYING to drift na but ever since I put my psm coils on, my car keeps breaking things.lol
1986 rx7 sport (I think, had the duck bill, no sunroof, no rear wiper, no PS or abs or power anything)
Racing beat street header (free!)
Racing beat presilencer (free!)
2.5" custom piping to thrush muffler (regret. 2 bit local shop. asked for stainless, I get mild steel. too many bends too and my $25 thrush sounds like garbage)
Parts Shop Max coilovers set full soft up front, 2 of 10 in the rear
on car adjustable camber sublink from forum member Karack's group buy.
Stock 15's with 205/65/15's bald block tread in back at 50psi (free), block tread winters up front at 40psi(free,lol)
non working 5th/6th ports (need the split air pipe, searching), bad ball joint, shot trans mounts.
I try.

yeah same here i wanna drift NA but i've been busy making the car reliable. So far no emissions, ps, ac, abs, 5th & 6th port blocked off, bac & omp delete (premix), and replaced the rear diff mounts with solids mounts and Racing beat competiton front mount and double alt pulley setup. I think mine is a gxl since it has a sunroof, 5 lug, and lsd. Tire size is 215/45/17.

Not quite where I want to be but here it goes.
86 GXL
Removed: PS, AC, OMP, Air Pump, EGR, 5th/6th port sleeves, Cruise Control
Sitting on (mildly)cut springs till I can come up with coilovers.
Still on stock wheels till I find crown vic meshies(dont hate)
RB header 2.5in straight to unknown y-pipe and cans
Mods that I am saving for: DTSS Elims, Coilovers, Camber Adjusters, Something for Angle, Solid Subframe Mounts, Stronger Clutch, And a HEALTHY Streetport... When this 13b goes
Tell me should I add anything to my wish list for my fc. It wont be just a drift/track car either, planing on having fun weekend drifter that is still streetable.

not all of us have deep pockets...
I built my engine out of 4 blown up ones.
I have 0 dollars in this engine even after purchasing gaskets from RA.
I keep the best parts of the engines to make this one then sold the other parts off to cover my costs.
yadda yadda yadda. broke even

oh, my car has 5 lug and the t2 front brakes as well (got it like that) and I'm running an open diff! wooohooooo. I still get angle and yes, it does require *****. I had to build up courage when I started trying sweepers. took a bit but you get used to it.

I'd need to drop way too much money into an n/a to have the fun I want. I keep grenading n/a driveline stuff anyway, so if I'm getting the trans, d-shaft, diff and axles, I may as well get the snail too.
My **** loses like 80whp every time I carve the local twisty to the top [10k feet]. N/A is cool, but Boost is Best.
