What's it like owning an fd in china

 

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

 

 

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:




And since i was there, My **** really itched so I went ahead and did a full exhaust upgrade with a complete feed exhaust system :O





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...






And that's when hell bestowed upon me, the HKS v-mount kit is a ******* 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 ******* 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.
