Yes, Rene showed up but he did not bring a car.

I ran a 12.3 at 108. Chris ran a 10.3 at 125. The weather was very hot and the air was thin. We had a good time though. Where the hell were you *****?

 

This would be a great car for PASS TIME. Ken wouldn't have a clue what time it would do. Just say 'haven't dyno'd it yet, don't know the hp. It had 100hp stock'..... LAUGH.

 

Brad, this one flew right over my head. Who is Ken?

 

no need to worry...bitch...

 

I stopped worrying about no showers a long time ago.

Moving along..... I need some honest opinions here. Since my car is a full drag car and I don't need headlights I removed my headlights and brackets and made some black inserts out of lexan and mounted them in my grill. The picture does it no justice. It actually looks really cool. Depending on where you stand it looks like there is nothing there/black holes or it reflects like mirrors. Anyways, my question is what color should I paint the grill. Should I keep it silver or paint it black? If I paint it black I am worried that there would be too much black. The silver helps the black headlamps stand out. Or maybe paint everything black except the chrome rings around the black headlights? What do you guys think? Here's the pic.

 

Looks good in silver/chrome, makes the lexan pop. The bumper is beat though. Very cool utbe vid thanks.

 

If you do paint the grill black, i would paint the radiator black too. I think the silver rad showing thru the black grill might look wrong. My personal opinion tho....

 

Thanks guys, for now I think I'm going to keep it the way it is. In a couple of months I'm going to start on the body and paint on this car finally.

 

That looks really nice...I think black on black would look really nice and still have that pop..

Hey you got a PM your way bro..

 

Thanks Teddy. See you guys at Sevenstock.

 

Well, it's been a long time since I've updated this thread. I finally decided to do the body and paint on this turd, so I have been trying to do it myself. I have never done bodywork before, so I bought a hammer and dolly set and checked out some video's on the internet and went at it. It took some practice but anyone can do it. I first have been stipping down the doors and fenders and doing getting out as much dents as I could. Man oh man was there alot of body filler on this car. I think I am going to shed several pounds form this. I should have the body stipped down and prepped for paint in the next coupld of weeks and then a friend is going to do the final bodywork and paint. I think I'm going to paint it Porsche GT3rs green. Here are some pics.

 

nah, I say stick with british green.

 

same here! the darker green looks good.

 

A dark green race car? I need something that pops! Dark green is forgetable, but this green you will remember.

 

I agree, Go with the bright green, I use to have my rx3 painted the darker green and it was OK, BUT would not stand out at the racetrack

 

http://www.speedtv.com/programs/pass-time/ Ken works for the show and guesses cars times. He doesn't know **** about imports let alone a rotary.

The paint can use more pop than the dark green that's on there. The porsche green shure would get attention. Do any of the stock Rx2 paint colors look good to you?

 

porche green looks "very femine" but it will fit ultimateghey personality LOLLLLLLLLLLL

 

I understand now, I just got the speed channel and watch passtime all the time now. I keep waiting for a rotary to run in the show, but none so far.


What is femine? Isn't that when you can't grow crops and you go hungry for long periods of time.

 

typo; should be 'feminine'

 

@ wacky. Jay I like the color, its something different on an old school!!

 

Jay, if you like that color go for it! It's a track car anyhow and track cars can always pull off the crazy/loud paint schemes.

BTW, I have some images somewhere on my computer of a coupe in a similar green. As soon as I find them and host them I'll put it up for you.

Wow hey thats the color i picked for my rx3 And i know it will look good cuz i had my friend do a photo shop and he gotz the good program and wow my rx3 is going to look craxy good in that color so I think is going to look awsome in the rx2 aswell, I was going green and blacj with some chrome areas, but I think original old school colors are too dull for me, is great if you going original is greeat but if you going to show off your rotary in the track you defetly gotz to get this color., well I love color, is different i been looking for 3 years for a color and thats the color i picked,

color looks new and old in the same time, you will see it when you painted or have someone do a photo shop and you will know how it will look . great pick,

 

Yeah, I think the GT3rs green looks really good, especially on a race car. I don't want to be like Wacky and have the same color everyone else has.

 

i say go with the bright green as well,any updates,seems like a lot of people are doing body and paint this year on thier old school mazda's,including myself.

well, some newer colors doesnt go well with old school. but if you want to be different, paint that bitch pink
