RHD Widebody FC3S in So Cal
 
Hi Everybody!
I'm Carlos and I've been working on my project car for about 6 years. It started off as a 91 black GTU and then in 2002 got a TII engine swap. At that time I had the brilliant idea of changing the car to RHD.... which ended up taking a few months. lol.. I really didn't know what I had gotten myself into. Once it was finished it was a great accomplishment. I added the widebody with a mazdaspeed front lip and rear wing extender. Other than that the car has not undergone any recent changes. Except for the fact that I blew the motor some months ago and now I am going LS1... its my 3rd motor and I just can't seem to stop blowing engines... lhaha... we all can't be perfect drivers I guess....

It's wonderful to meet you all!!! I hope your RX projects are all going well and you are enjoying them to the fullest! See you online!

Hey Guys! Yeah I don't really drive the FC everyday and whatnot... the thing got like 8miles to the gallon on the freeway... I'm hoping to get better milage with the LS1.

I'm working on the pics... lol my computer crashed in Jan and it had all the pics on the hard drive.... I rebuilt the computer but I haven't had a chance to get the info off the old hard drive. As I build the LS1 I'll take pictures to share.


TRAVIS!!!! What is up T_Bone!!! Its been a minute... I've been trying to give you a call forever.... apparently someone else has been gettin' all the "hey what's up Travis" messages I've been leaving. LOL... I'll PM you..

HAHA... sorry man... the rotary is no longer part of this project car. But one day I'll buy another one.

I just got my LS1 and T56 Tranny so the project has just begun. lol.

Update... Engine went in this weekend... I still need to do the transmission and still waiting for the ECU to come back from Jessie. Most of it should be done this weekend.
