1982 Series 2 RX7 with 13BBPT

Hello all,

Just introducing myself onto the forum. My name's Rhys and I live in the land down under; Australia. I have been a member for some time and had a few posts under my belt but my account was reset. So I thought I would share my car with you. As the title mentions, its a 1982 Series 2 SA22C (FB I think for you guys) with a Series 4 Turbo 2 13BT that's been bridgeported. I rebuilt and ported the motor with the generous help of a friend. It's running alot of the necessary ancillaries (1000cc injectors, Microtech, FMIC, aftermarket plenum) and I am just finishing off installation of a BW S360 that's replacing a T04Z. Here are some pics ... hope you like.

Cheers Rhys

Honestly have never loved the yellow, but it looks great on the model.

Thanks for the comments guys.

I actually bought the wheels from the US, they are Rota RB's in 17x7 with 215 semi-slick tyres. Got them from Welcome to 18 Racing , great company to deal with and good pricing.

I think the wheels give the car that more classy look although the yellow does make it a bit leary. Strangely enough this is a factory colour, so the Japanese certainly were advantageous back in the early 80's.
