New FD to Dallas Area
 

Hey everyone, my name is Chris and I got a FD a few months ago. I'm on a couple of other local forums under the names "jdmintegraowner" and "95 Poopra". I am 23 (24 in November) and have had quite the collection of cars in my 8 years of driving. In 03 started out with the normal hand-me-down. 95 accord lx 4 door auto. Then, in 04 I got a 00 Integra gsr bone stock. I turned it into this:

It got stolen in late 07, and I got 12k from insurance. In 08 I found an stock R33 Skyline gts-t for 14k and did a few mods to it.

Then the whole "Skylines getting picked up by the feds" thing happened and scared me so I got rid of it. In 09 I traded for a 96 240sx all jdm and some cash.

I did a few mods, but got bored with the car scene for a little bit and thought I should get a reliable daily so I put the 240 up for trade. In late 09 I ended up getting an 05 Jetta gli with 80k miles and really simple bolt-ons.

That didn't last long, and in early 10 I put it up for trade along with my 01 Honda CBR 600 f4i. I got an offer I couldn't refuse. A 95 Supra hardtop. It was auto and n/a, but I had plans to get rid of that nonsense.

How it looked when I got it

Wheels and my brother's car(it's for sale!)

Then I started running into small problems here and there with things like water pump, lights going out, random creaks, and other annoyances. I didn't have the money to do the 6k tt/6spd swap, so I did the only thing logical. Get an RX7 :nod: I traded my 95 auto, n/a, 180k miles supra for a 93 5spd, tt, 67k mile RX7.

I did a few mods to it with the money I had saved up towards the Supra swap. http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...owner/Day1.jpg

Welcome, impressive journey to finally get the best car :icon_tup:

If I see a blue rx7 around I'll know who it is!

lol I'm sure you'll see it around sometime! Did any of yall go to cupcake meet at the fair grounds? I saw a nice turn out of RX7's there.

Welcome.

Nice collection of previous rides. Especially that kouki 240sx. I like what you did with the paint and ccw's on the fd.

Post up pics in the 3rd gen picture thread if you already havent.

Thanks man. They're not cow's though.. I wish lol. They are some bbs lm replica wheels that came with a buddy of mines rhd supra from Japan. Will do on the fd thread.

I haven't been driving my car for years. Finally motivated to rebuild the engine. Thinking about going down to rotary performance next week and picking up a few parts if they are still located in Garland.

I just went there 3 weeks ago, they still in the same place.

Good deal. They have always treated me right.
