Good find, it looks really clean. I think the GTU (up to 88) came with an aluminum hood too, it has all the stuff that the turboII has but without the turbo. After 88, the GTU became the base model and the GTUs was the sport model.

Cool

Alright, heres an update to the RX7:
I've got my 17" rims on, had to replace 3 of the lugs though, $100 to fix that
We're planning on getting a new cd player with new speakers here soon (then I'll hook up my 2 12" subs and 1000Watt amp

I've made a list of what I want. I've decided to go with more show than go. I did get a new intake manifold from Chris, that'll help. BTW, it drifts like no other

Heres the list, and a couple links:
