Fd3s build from Orlando

Hey guys my name is Michael Lewo, from Orlando, I have a 1993 Rx7. Currently have a decently modified FD and a 1979 Corolla sr5 liftback. I dont know if im supposed to post mods here but I figured what the hell

1993 Rx7 (currently runs e85):
Motor:
Heavy Street port
Motor is dowell pinned with 2 additional pins.
Custom Oil catch can
Dual oil coolers
Single turbo Precision T67; 22.5 LB of boost
Turbonetics wastegate
Top mount intercooler
MSD ignition
Custom fuel rail
1600cc Primary injectors
2200cc Secondary injectors
Two Aeromotive 1000 fuel pumps ran through 3 inch line all the way down
Microtech computer
Currently only street tuned by Kilo Racing
We suspect its making between 550-600, more in the 570s range
Car runs E85 ONLY, not a big deal with a good amount of E85 stations around me.

Suspension:
Eibach lowering springs in the rear
Front Tein coilovers
Custom reinforced PP Frame.
Custom A-arms in the works currently
XXR 526, Front : 17X9 +25 + 5mm spacer / Rear: 17X10 +35

Nice build definitely looks like it will have a lot of power. Not familiar though with how well rotary engines can take those power levels on a stock internal parts. Hopefully everything goes well for you.

Hey guys, sorry that was definitely meant to say 3/8*** INCH line *******

Dear god if I was running a three inch line I might flood the motor

Xene- Ya the rear end has held up pretty well so far, I'm debating about doing a cobra IRS rear end. And I have already gone through one transmission, im on my second stock transmission. However, in the meantime I hope to have my old transmission (lost 1st and 2nd) built by the time the new stock one gives out. The car also has machined rotors which helps.

I still have quite a bit to go on the stance, and the wheels are only temporary until around December at which point Im going to order custom 18 inch Savini one-off wheels... cheaper then ya think ! For now these are the 17s currently on the car, 600 with good tires on them, I thought it was a decent deal lol.

And these are my old wheels. One-off custom 19 inch I.D. Luxury wheels. 19X9.5 - 265/40/19 / 19X10.5 - 305/35/19
No pull, only a Fender roll. Wheels fit amazing.

REALLY nice car! Clean!
But i dont like the blueish (colorblind) color on the seats.
Is it a 99-spec rear wing or some aftermarket?

@ Natex, good to hear, makes me feel much more comfortable about stating thats my power level without knowing 100% for sure ! And no road trips for me, the car probably gets 2-3 MPG... and yes, I am completely serious... I also beat the **** out of the car every single time I drive it, I mean thats the point of the car. lol. If anyone wants I just posted the car up in the FD build thread section, pictures galore soon to come.
