Got my Rx7 about a month ago, here are some pics:







Fairly plain for now, but definitely does the job!

Oh ****, that looks NICE!

I want my FD to look EXACTLY like that! I have the same wing now, and the front lip. Just waiting on my sideskirts and my 99spec bumper.

What? There are about 119-125 FDs or something in the UK, right? This is definately the cream of the crop. Nice, clean car. Thumbs up.

Thanks guys,

Thanks for the response! You've all made my day! The car's not an original '99, it's a '95. From what I can tell the previous owner has obsessively looked after it, as will I. It's the only reason I bought the car, which was approximately 2/3k over the normal price. It cost £14,000 UK Pounds with 32,000 miles on the clock.

I'm not sure what side skirts they are, but I do know most of what's under the hood:

Apexi Induction kit,
Blitz Intercooler,
HKS Dump valve,
Knightsport 4 Beat (?),
Knightsport EBS Turbo boost controller,
Knightsport EBS ECU,
Tein full suspension setup,
Full Zigen 5 Exhaust setup,
Improved grounding wiring,
And more that I can't quite remember right now.

Cosmetics wise it's all the standard '99 look upgrades, and 17" PIAA lightweight alloys, momo race steering wheel. I think the setup is best described as 'less is more', I think it works. Here are some more pics:








Thanks,

Pwantwan.

Lookin good. I was a bit taken back with the rims because at first glance, I thought they were the bbs mesh, but they really didn't look too much like them. Nice, very nice.
