1st RX7: 89 Turbo
 

I just got an S5 Turbo. had my buddy drive me down to Arcadia from basically Bakersfield to pick it up. Might have overpaid, but whatev. It has the Racing Beat TII exhaust and Volk GTU's, so I guess that's pretty cool? Also got a HKS turbo timer, some projector lenses and redom boost gauge with it.

So now I'm in the process of basically "restoring" it. Coming from a 2002 Audi TT ALMS what got trashed. Figured I'd change it up and get something fun instead of just good looking. But it still needs to work right.

let's see some pics!

I'm with him!

Bah! Humbug.
OK, I'll put the one's the seller used but it's hard to take good pics of my own in 100 degree skin boiling hot sun, especially since I'm only outside after driving it and it doesn't have A/C. For now...
It doesn't have the seats, and has the dual exhaust not single. Shows pretty well in the pics, not quite as nice in person. I like it anyway.

looks good!

Thank you. I'm getting quite a lot of looks around town already.

Looks awsome!

Thank you. Yes I got it in Arcadia. It was on for a few months, started at $8000 then came down? Those are actually those same pics from the CL ad.

Nice, that things ridiculously clean. Very good find, sick color and nice rims. You should post some interior shots.

Thanks, but the interior is sub par actually. I'll snap more when I get done taking care of mandatory maintenance and get to cleaning and aesthetics. Definitely needs some seats.

The car looks super clean! The wheels fit really well.

Yea, they're similar to some of the stock ones aren't they? Maybe that's why they called them GTUs? Honestly, the wheels are about half the reason I got the car.

Awesome car dude, looks great. Love the wheels too. My brother has some that look like that on his 85' and they looked awesome on my 86' so I'm pretty jealous haha

Looks Just like my 89... But my car is black .. funy cause my rims are simalar.. lol
I have some body work to do but soon enough my car will look that nice. :)
Amazing ride bro Time to look into some Coilovers and Motor work :)

i wish i could find something that clean here in oregon. almost all the ones i find are rusted with body damage or trashed. good job with the car it really looks amazing

Sexy!

Wow, I'd better hang on to it. Thanks guys. It's actually one of two hardtop turbos within 500 miles I could find when I was shopping. The other sold maybe 3 days before I got this. I've been wet-sanding the orangepeel out. Hopefully I don't botch it royally, and I can get some decent pics.
