rx-3 i just recently picked up
has no motor/tranny but i've already got the turbo II tranny, and 13b-rew that's getting built for it, plan on making it what it once was, street/strip monster from what many ppl rember it by, from what the owner has said along with many other ppl that know the owner, the car was runnin in the 9's street legal automatic and straight as an arrow, just need to find some parts here and there such as the dash pad, front window trim and passanger rear 1/4 window badge for the outside, still has pretty good paint also on 90% of the car(pearl white), still has soft untorn rear seats, good door pannels and carpet, here are some pic's, sorry for the poor poor quality pics, it's my camera phone

la negra? is that a starlet, microtech powered?

Terrified.
What Lupe did with his FD almost makes me scared shitless for what he would do with an old skool rotary.
And congratulations on the Rx3. I hope to own one someday as well.
