I'm planning in tuning the **** out of this rx but 1 pace at a time.. since i'm a student i have limited funds + a house / Honda (Del Sol) / School Etc to pay..

Plans for the Rx7?
Sure i have plans but i will tell more about that once i picked it up.. + i'm still sorting out the setup plans..

Maybe you can help me with suggestions:
i want to run a turbo that has big HP potential but spools quick!!! and streetable..

P.S.(sorry for the spelling errors i live in the netherlands so english isn't my primary language..)

 

Good to have you here.
..your English is great...I would capitalize the "s" in **** though!...lol!

 

Hahaha, yeah thanks for the tip!

 

good to have u here fellow rotary brother lol.

 

Glad to (finally) be here..

Was wondering on this forum for quite some time now but never got around to introduce myself since is didn't own a FD.

 

Pictures!








this makes me sad



As you can see there is alot to do..
I have my mind set on a radtech v-mount, rw throttle body, tial bov,aem coils and new leads..
But first of all is clean up that crappy @ss looking engine bay.. cant stand looking at it like this! (did someone say wire tuck?)

 

thnx don

 

Looks good. Triple black!

 

To do list for upoming weeks:
- Install radtec v-mount kit
- Buy a blitz nur spec exhaust
- Get rid of the hydrolic handbrake
- Fix the interior back to stock (except for the seats)
- Get rid of the wire mess (engine bay and interior)
- Find me some standard color reflectors
- Lower it some more
- Find me some LHD headlights!!!

 

Man that's a nice looking FD. One day I hope to get one. For now FCs are what's affordable haha.

 

I was thinking about that FD when I saw it on pistonheads, previous owner had shares in cable ties I think but the outside looks clean, have fun with it mate and welcome

 

haha yeah!! well.. nothing a wire tuck cant fix takes a sh*t load of time though but i'm keeping this car so its worth it

 

Hahaha yeah well have a good look around there are enough FD's that are affordable ! i got mine from england they are cheaper there..

 

Looks Great
