dark video of my rx7

hope it's ok for me to ***** this vid out here. I'm just so ******* excited to get my car back on the road after all these years. This was my second FC and I've owned this car for 10 years and have only really driven it for 3 of those years due to it being wrecked, then fixed up, then the motor popped from sitting for so long. Bought a new rebuild from some douche bag rx7 guy here and on teamfc3s...wont mention any names and it only got 900 miles before blowing a seal. So I rebuilt this motor myself last summer and dropped it in. I worked on it here and there this summer but when I lost my job I had 3 solid weeks to finish it up. Most of that time was waiting on parts that were missing. How's it sound?

I think you was the first to ever get that kit in the states. Good to see it running again. Now all you need is a killer set of wheels... something along the "jdm" line up. Pics would be nice too!

hehe yep that was me. Ordered it from taka kaira when it first came out back in the fall of 2000 or something. They didn't tell me it hadn't been produced when I ordered it so I had to wait close to 6 months for it to even come. I think the rx7 forums are the only place that can appreciate the body kit. I posted it many times on OT and get so much hate for the wing and the bumper. I guess it is a little ricey and the wing is overboard but it grows on you. The front bumper looks kind of crappy now from bottoming out too much and rock chips though.

here's a pic of the motor a couple weeks before I finished. I have a few more recent ones on my computer at home that'll upload later
