Sup guys, just wanted to introduce my car.

Well its been a long 3 months or so. Sold the Busa and found a 1994 RX-7 in awesome shape. The problem was that I had to drive to Texas to pick it up. The only problem is that it is auto, but the car is in excellent shape. Paint shines like new, and the interior still smells new! New motor, turbos, intercooler, shocks, radio, new everything basically. The car has 74500 miles. A/C is cold and starts perfectly.

 

cool, welcome to the club....and I hope you have a beater and a surplus of cash, once you start modding or something breaks.

 

Hmmm, auto FD huh? You might want to PM Fumanchu for hints

 

Or maybe he is related to fuchiboy

 

Planning on doing an LS1 swap, that is why I opted for an auto.

 

niicee. v8 powah!

 

your ls1 will be auto also? I got my ls1 installed a few days ago. Im still waiting for my driveshaft from hinson. Good luck

 

You guys with an LS1 FD need to post some pics! Audobot7, how much is the conversion costing you so far or total?

 

 

you dont want to know. haha

I got almost everything for free. I just got the engine installed a few days ago so its not running yet. I need to get my wiring harness modified, driveshaft, and the hydraulic systems. There's a guy in walnut creek thats going to help me w/ the wiring harness. I just ordered the hydraulic system from summit since hinsonsupercars.com is lagging like a bitch. I took off my sexy style body and going w/ a 99 front end w/ front plate holder and apex side skirts. My car is also going into the body shop next week for a full paint job (ferrari red).
here's a pic:

Dang, must be nice!! Looks good, keep us posted...both of you. If were to ever to buy another FD, I would definitely put in an LS1.

 

If I were to buy another FD, I'd buy Jesuscookies'

Anyone wanna give me $23k to hole onto for a couple of years?

 

do you want to sell the stock motor? how many miles? let me know.

 

hey i am not flaming you bro, but why did you buy an fd with all new stuff? you should have just bought the shell. it would have been WAY cheaper. but if you plan on modding that auto, dont, you will blow your tranny. it just happened to me.

 

Damm, ls1 looks sick as hell

 

car is looking good Bee...

 

thanks guys, I forgot to mention... Im getting a free paint job from apex auto body in san jose. Im waiting for my buddy paul to finish up a wide body evo mr edition and fd3s800's(tommy) FD. Tommy's FD is going to be super nice w/ the feed widebody kit.

Reason for buying this particular car I was able to get it at a nice price. The new powertrain was a major plus as well.

I will selling everything when I do the swap, but that wont be until next spring. And if you're wondering I do have the receipts for everything that was replaced.
