This weekend i did some work on the 7. I added some okay quality front speakers. The stereo sounds sweet now. These clarion speakers were just lying around, thought i'd put them on. I painted my calipers. Added clear blinkers. Am thinking on putting these wheels. What do you guys think?

aw man white? you shoulda got gold and silver, those ones are hot.

tahmid

yep its a right hand drive, notice where i live??
These rims i got for free. They were gold and silver, however a lot of the golden paint, peeled off. Am still thinking whether to put these on or to give them to my brother for this silvia.

So ******* what?

Do people in Japan look at pics of U.S. spec cars and say, "Wow, left hand drive!"?

Im curious.. How many of you guys in Bangladesh own RX7s. Im sure its very rare over there in the neck of your woods.

If you put the wheels on get red lug nuts, or whatever color to match your car. Just my $0.02

I find that only north american FD owners like the stockish loook.. I"ve seen Fd's from europe and most of them look like ***..

Its the only one in Bangladesh. Have to pay 189% duty. Kills u.

tahmid

See the problem with the current wheels. Totally wrong offset. Thats why i'm thinking of putting these on. I want some thick tyres.

Garoad

holy **** why did they stop at 189%? thats nearly twice as much as thailand's 100%

tahmid

yep. we have to live with that.......

fcturbo2

that sucks..hey but having the only FD or rotary in BANGLADESH=Priceless.

I had those wheels and with a 235-40-17 tire in the front (fucked up my pasenger fender) The guy I bought them from had a 215-40-17 and I thought that was too small but now I know it wasn't. On the rear I had a 275-40-17. The tire was to big for the rim IMO. I would have gone with a 255 next time.

You sure do have an interesting license plate.

tahmid

Thanks a lot. I'll keep that in mind. I think you are absolutely correct about the front tyres. I'll go with a thinner tyre.

About the lisence plate. Thats the language we speak in. Its BANGLA.

^^^ i had that happen too, just in the front. I had 235/45/17 BF goodrich gforce TA KDWs on there.
#1 too high and #2 too square on the profile.
I now have 225/45/17 BF goorich gforce sports and have no issue. the corner of the profile is considerably rounds, givng me much more clearance.

Don't you mean wider tires?!? How do you benefit from thick tires?? other than filling up the wheel-well and maybe pot-holes. Doesn't wider tires = traction?!?

tahmid

my bad, yes i meant wider tyres. Thanks.
