Hello there. I just recently acquired a 1993 FD from, what appears to be, a local owner. It has 43k on it and was only owned by 1 person. It is in really good condition for being a 23 year old car. It is not a daily, and so it will sit in the garage most of the time. This is my 4th car that I want/intend to mod, and its the first time that I have had the time, money and patience to deal with. My plans are first to get new suspension bushings and parts, then get wheels and tires. I am undecided which path I want to take exterior wise (I really like the Re-Amemiya kit, but the rocket bunny kit is growing on me) and so my engine plans are still up in the air. I want to shoot for 450-520 whp safely and without overheating issues. I DO NOT plan to track this car because parts are too rare and I would rather track something that I could easily part back when things start to break. I used to have an S2000 with 507 whp and I drove it daily so I understand the speed that comes with a light weight car and a lot of hp. I am a complete novice when it comes to rotary engines, so please dont ridicule me if I ask a dumb question. Thanks for having me and I cant wait to be a part of a close knit community again.

Nice to hear of a fellow enthusiast in Phoenix. It seems like there's only a handful of 7s here in Tucson. Your car/plans sound exciting. My buddy just got his FD running after rebuild and single turbo conversion, he's up in San Tan Valley.
