My Rx 2 Project Car

Okay,

I finally splurged an bought a digital camera. (Computer show cheapie $ 150 )

That was a week ago. After reading the directions only about 3 dozen times, I think I figured out how to shoot an post a picture.

So, here it is. Attached are pics of my RX 2 project car, the GT 35/40 Turbo and custom manifold, and some polished parts I just got back from the polish shop.

I have custom rails on the way, and believe it or not, I think the project is finally starting to move along.

Now, since I have a camera, maybe I will be more inclined to document as I move through this process.

Let me know what you think

David

Put some old school watanabe-style wheels on that bad boy and drop it, it'll look sooooooooooooo sweet.

Yes, the first gen wheels up to 84 do. If cash holds out though, I am going custom, 16's or 17's.

cool! Considering my budget I'll just find an early RX-7 in the junkyard with good tires and alloys and pull them for the nice junkyard price I'm not fond of the steel wheels on it now.

Go 17s, It's been done, so you know you would be able to do the same thing.

Hey I have some RX7 wheels that seem to rub on the front steering buckles. They're from an '82 RX7 and on my RX2. I really can't figure out why they're having such a bad problem but I need some help figuring it out.

Where could I get better wheels for my RX2?
