CA New FD Owner, SF Bay Area.

Hello, my name is Jason. I have just purchased a 1994 RX-7 today. The previous owner does body work by trade and did a great job on it. I am a Auto tech by trade and hope to take care of her as well as the previous owner did. She needs a-lot of little things but overall is a good running car.

I look forward to combing through the vast amount of knowledge here and hopefully making some friends along the way.

Welcome! There will be some local meets happening pretty soon. Nice looking FD, plan on getting mine up to par soon enough. Hope to see you soon!

What mods do you got by the way? Need some ideas on my stock FD :P

It has a Greddy stock mount intercooler, upgraded piping, Blitz intakes and some suspension work. The rear trailing arms need to be replaced and Koni suspension is worn out. Im going with a coil over set up and trying to make this a reliable driver. The engine bay is a little flashy for me.
I may dress it down a bit.

I'm definitely down for local meets.

A little too much chrome for me.

Definitely too much chrome for my taste as well. Still loving your 7, can't wait to get my 99 spec exterior parts on.

She's gorgeous, and my little cousin loves the sun shader on the windshield.

Nice to meet you, I'm from San Jose, California.

I have owned an RX8 and Turbo II RX7, but have been away from the RX scene for about 3 years now. I picked up 94 Non-Running FD this weekend and intend to put it back together.

Love the car, looks great.
