Welcome to forum
|
you have alot of people looking at you and taking photos of you as if youre a superstar lol
|
So the same like everywhere else lol
|
I thought it was quite difficult to have older cars on the road in HK. At least it was 17 years ago (my first son was born there, at Matilda) |
its generally hard to maintain a car not to mention multiple due to the restrictive parking spaces in hk unless you are financially stable, haha i live right next to matilda
|
yea rx7 in general are quite rare in HK, so driving one makes you feel like youre driving a supercar in other people's eyes (but not for cops, they like to go for you)

Few updates on the car, was really busy with work:
The Original Suspension pretty much took its toll after a few "runs", so i installed Brand new coilovers from JRZ suspension after hearing good stories about them: https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...aaf310b635.jpg And since i was there, My arse really itched so I went ahead and did a full exhaust upgrade with a complete feed exhaust system :O https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...328bdb5296.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...3491f9ef2c.jpg THEN... and i was like, hmmm since i took the front pipe out and everything is in places.... you know what... fark it, i will go full v-mount... so here we go... https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...8592e76804.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...ee07f92030.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...deb5e3d103.jpg And that's when hell bestowed upon me, the HKS v-mount kit is a fucking nightmare to install, literally nothing fits properly ffs without pulling some shitty bending tricks, especially the AC relocation lines... the idea of cutting the power steering piping off to replace with a rubber hose was...(well i didint like the sound of that and so did my mechanic, so we decided to see what we can make do with the current piping. Worst problem of all, was the fucking height of the radiator fans... with the stock fans, its literally 2-3 inches from the ground... exposed (undertray is pretty much a nono), My mechanic has a mishimoto fan for supra laying around the workshop for a while so we are thinking of doing some modifications to it so it would fit on the radiator... More news to come later i guess, gotta have my coffee first |
looking good. but as this is the intro section, u will need to continue this progress with a build thread.
