ON Building an RX7 Vielside

I'm trying to build a RX7 Veilside in Toronto and I need tips.

Contrary to everyone else, I'm not too keen on making the ride stiff or for performance.

I'm more into comfort and looks.

#1. Comfort
#2. Vielside Kit

Wanted to see if anyone here could provide some tips on where to start, cost and so on ...

The kit is $11,000 retail. I believe there are a FEW Fortune RX7 owners here who could probably help you with pointers.

Where are you at as of now with your build? do you have a US or JDM platform? Have you purchased or sourced where you are getting the body kit? Do you have a shop lined up for install?

Let me know where your at, and I'll help you figure out what to do.

The most comfy suspension is the stock one.
Racing seats are not comfy at all.
Good luck with your build.
