FD fell in my lap, couldn't be happier!

It's a very long story but I'll give the short and sweet! Always loved the Rx7, but only had experience in FC's.

I've been on the road for work for the last two years and I had an old Audi in storage. Used car market is flooded, so I was getting no bites. I put it up for trade for a track or project car, and after a few weeks this fell in my lap. Not sure if I'll turn it into a track car, or just leave her as a weekend warrior / show car.

13b REW Half Bridge Port
Borgwarner s366
13b RE Intake manifold
Cosmo Throttle body
Cosmo rotor housings
Goopy Apex seals
NGK Race plugs
ID 850cc primary and 2000cc secondary injectors
FFE fuel rail
2 440 Bosch fuel pumps
Megan end links
Megan control arms
Megan engine damper
Megan engine mounts
Megan top bottom front and back anti sway bars
Apexi Coil overs
APEX Power FC full stand alone
Eboost 2 electronic boost controller
greddy intercooler trust v mount kit
AEM pulleys
BMR Short shifter
Work VS xx wheels 18x10 up front 18x10.5 rear
Painted custom green on rotisserie
Hks twin power ignition
Two piece front rotors
Stainless braided caliper lines
Fresh rebuilt trans

Going to get larger primaries and retune due to the fact that it's tuned to spring pressure at the moment.

Body and interior needs some work. Probably going to move away from the cwest front bumper since she has a vmount. No need for that big open mouth look, haha.

Also has a very low quality duck bill wing that will need to be replaced soon!

Not sure what my plans for the car are, or even how much power this build will safely make, but I'm a happy camper either way.

Also kinda want the factory mirrors over these APR's..

Bring it out to the 4-rotor fest at Mazmart Saturday, let some guru's look it over and tell you what's needed. It definitely has the makings of a nice build.
