nah, cant be honda equipped, I dont have advertising stickers plastered to my windows, I dont have expensive/mismatched wheels/tires, I dont have any fake badging, only got 2 seats, and im not wrong wheel drive. I can pull and replace an engine/transmission by myself in a weekend, faster if I dont procrastinate, and I dont go around challenging cars to 'drag' races
okay where do i get one of these? this is the only 1st gen to catch my eye https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generation-specific-1979-1985-18/79-turbo-widebody-restoration-759035/
its a multi step process.
step 1: buy e first gen.
step 2: source a widebody kit.
step 3: take car and kit to a body shop and let em have at it.
step 4: buy larger rims and tires to fill out the wheelwells.
step 5: have fun fabricating a turbo installation.
OR just try and buy one already with a kit installed and modify from there.

The OGTA group is getting together at the GA/SC border for a day on the lake and playing with the rotors. I know it's a haul, but maybe a few of you guys can make it.

Wooo Derrick! Lookin' good man. Nice to see that car in something solid. Now... wetsand and clearcoat it! Yeah yeah, I know you hate shiny cars but it would look good.
nah, ima leave from the doors back alone till body work is finished. As you can see my hood, headlight covers, and front fenders are....rough. Ive got replacements for the fenders as you can see, and i need to hit the lights and hood again with the big daddy sander before they get sprayed again. Didnt get pics of my S5 tail's yet, but ill install them soon enough.
Yeah, looks great from about 6 feet away or so, but once your up on it you can see all the flaws in the old bodywork. But its all good, its one color and hopefully the rest of my s5 crap shows up

Tint would be good. Just don't go cheap on the tint, that stuff is hard to get rid of when it starts going bad. Just ask ol' Brillo, wherever he ran off to.
