Mine ain't. There's rust starting to form on the anti-roll bar brackets, the underside of the exhaust, and the undertray bolts. Luckily, it hasn't eaten at any of the suspension components or the body. I'm not taking my FC on the road unless there's no salt or until I can find a place that will undercoat it.

FD was totaled two years ago, but was rebuilt right. it tracks nice and straight, ask any of the guys here, they've all seen it or ridden in it.

81k on the body, 94, 5 speed.

engine is a fresh rebuild, hasnt been started yet.
stock twins 10k miles
Racing Beat Single Tip Exhaust
Koyo Rad
Modded primary fuel rail
4 850cc injectors
Power FC and Commander
Koni Yellow's
Eibach Pro Kit springs
HKS intakes (Old school JDM only cone intakes)

car is a project right now, needs to be put back together, but 99% of everything needed to finish is there, some minor parts are missing.

Thanks. I thought it might be his. It is buried in about a foot and a half of snow right now. Weather sucks right now it is pretty slick out.

Haha he told me only his taillight is showing.

I see a SSHP sticker on your windshield, what have you gotten done at South Shore Hi-Po? It's too bad you don't bring your car out to the races, we could have three RX-7s! Lol.
