Where to Start?

Hey All!

I love cars and all, but I have never delved into modifications or any of the sort. After seeing a few of the project cars on YouTube, the interest has sparked in myself to do one myself. The question I mainly have is, since I have absolutely no experience or knowledge, where do I start? And if there is any specific sites or places I can go to really learn everything from the ground up.

I am currently sourcing a RX-7 (FD3S). I wanted to ask also, if there's a specific model of the FD that is better to start with.

Thanks all in advance! (I took a quick look and couldn't find anything)

Spend a few hours reading thru the FAQ stickys at the top of this page for the 3rd Generation. It will give you a little knowledge base on the car and some information to make a decision on which model is best for you. After that, check out the various build threads specific to the FD here ---> https://www.rx7club.com/build-threads-292/

Although usually involving serious performance and appearance modifications, "building" a FD can mean different things to different people. And if you're a novice at it, you need to walk before you run. It also depends on your skills, physical room, personality, tools/equipment and budget. Maybe focusing on buying a solid straight well-running car and "building" it to be reliable, fun and a little faster is the way to go?
