Anyone starting an FC project?

Also looking for people who belong to clubs in Japan

specifically Okinawa

kinda me im kinda makin my 7 looking new agen puting back dash accessories and heaters and everything interior kinda then at the same time im fixing wats under da hood kinda im still a noob tho

I'm starting a FC project but a complete nooob at rotary engines. but i'm located in Norcal

I just got an 88 convertable. I am still not sure where I am going with it though. I am still sourcing a window and new top (when the stereo was stolen the theivs cut the top then broke the window when they found out they couldn't get in that way). I got it for a good deal, running great. I got it from a buddy of mine that decided to get a different vert. We'll see where it goes from here. I just want to be able to drive it even if it is raining.

Just got my FC project running, seems to be holding up.... for now...:sad:

also, where are you located, OmicronS2K? i'm in norcal as well

Yo BungalogBob

maybe i can hit you up for help when needed cause this is my first rotary ever XD

i am trying to build a drifting fc

Definitly!

It's my first 7 too, i've taught myself basically how to do everything, it's a fun project.:icon_tup:

I just towed mine home. I bought an engine and I am just going to get it running for now. I will put pictures up when I have time

are you familer with okinawas mad gajin?

Nope????

im in way over my head with unfamiliar jargon

i've got an fc project, it runs but had quite a few problems when i got it and its a weekend warrior so i just play with it in my free time.

I just spent the weekend swapping out to a completely stock engine. THe reason is, when I go and get the car registered I have to have a good running car. The less attention the better. The engine I just took out I will rebuild clean it up and put a big turbo and injectors on it. The biggest problem that I ran into was the rust. The car will be 20 years old and I live in a sh"""y environment for cars, but I need to do some work. One good thing is the quality of the car. I thought that Japan was supposed to bad quality and I really cant find the real bad part.

I have got the engine in. It took almost two full days. When I put my rebuild in I will do it a garage where I dont have to jack it up every other 5 minutes. I found more rust. I am think and wondering if this will be worth it. Look for pictures soon.

Updates of the renovation
 

Here are some pics. It really isnt a one man job but people are just not interested in helping other people. http://xherox.com/mite/thumbnails.php?album=36

Just an update to the project, unfortunately I am running into problems with the equipment that I have access to here in Okinawa. But I do have somethings that are more accessible here too.

FD and FC compatible parts
 

I am starting to put some stuff from the FD on it, I have the alternator, front brake calipers, injectors. Can anyone think of anything else?:Wconfused

check out my buildup thread

good luck with your project

I have gotten far enough to get the car painted I will be posting my pictures in the garage. If you need any parts eg. twin plate clutches, manifolds, JDM stuff let me know.

I forget who asked but black dragon auto has new convertable tops there a little expensive though
