Hi from Canada! My S5 FC3S

Hi from Ontario/Nova Scotia, Canada guys and gals! First time RX7 owner here, not new to modified cars but definitely new to the rotary game. I'm the owner of a 1990 FC that I acquired a month ago in a trade for my previous car, a 98 Lexus GS400. So far it's been great, the NA 13b is bone stock but the previous owner put a ton of suspension/drivetrain work into the car, maintained it well and the shell is super clean. Easily the most fun car I've ever owned. Short term plans include exterior body bits + wheels, long term plans are a 13bt swap when I'm out of school and have some disposable income Looking forward to learning from and contributing to the forum! Cheers.

Looks awesome dude. I'd be interested to see more of those headlights, never seen LEDs on an FC before.

The previous owner apparently had them custom made by a contact of his in Japan, the fit and finish is great and high beams and low beams both work. I'll update the thread with some pictures when I get the car out in April

I've spent exactly 0$ on the car so far honestly, everything was done by the previous owner! BC Racing Coilovers, PartsShopMax super angle kit, PSM dtss eliminator, PSM camber arms, PSM toe rods, PSM camber links, solid subframe bushings, rear diff risers, RLCA bushings, Delrin engine and trans mounts, cusco front and rear strut bars, turbo2 LSD rear end, axles and driveshaft, turbo2 brakes all around with stoptech pads rotors and lines... That's the suspension/driveline, there are tons of other goodies on the car as well.

Ill update the thread with some pics when it's out of storage in April, the previous owner said he had a friend of his custom make them, the fit and finish is great and both high beams and low beams work. The look really similar to the LED conversion for the Jeep XJ, I think that's where the LED panel is from
