not realy 
Ive had a break in at my garage 4 weeks ago. They took 2 sevens, and all the parts to my car almost. The 4 rotor was somewhere else thank god. But the rest for the shell is gone. So all i got left is the shell. But im insured so just waiting on the insurance money now.
The plan is the put the FD back into "stock" spec I will take out the roll cage, put all the interior back. And drop my old 13b-rew BP engine in and put a Garett GTX4294R turbo on it an run it on E85 as a daily driver as it's a registerd shell. Will still have the widebody kit on it, as that's still "on the car". They did not take that.
Im buying a used RHD car to rip all the parts from and move it over to my shell. Then used the gutted out shell to build a new race car to drop the 4 rotor into.
As this will make the FD i have now easier to sell as well if i need to.

^^WTF, I read that and was like "tell me this is not true".
I'm glad to hear that you have insurance. Upgrade Security maybe? Glad to see that you're still moving on with your projects.

The engine is in for some service.
Had some issues with rotor 3 this summer. So decided to pull it. When we opend it, everything was ok. No damage what so ever anywhere. Engine has been running cool, alittle wear on the side plates but nothing bad. Bearings was showing signs of needing more oil. So going to change out the dry sump pump with the one for the 3 rotor.
Engine will get cleand up and put toghether with some more water modifications. And put together with every seal new except for apex seals, as they are NRS seals.
Will also change to 8 x 720cc injector dynamics injectors. A new ECU, CDI ignition and so on.
Im also starting a new chassi build to put the 4 rotor into. A semi Tube frame chassi, as i got a spare one in my garage that i can't register. As it got a salvage title.
The white FD will get a 13b-rew BP engine with a GT4094R turbo
