Thinking of trading my FC for a FD...

I think I wouldn't mind looking into this possibility.

I love my FC but I feel like its time for a change. I took my beat up NA base model and turned it into a work of art in my eyes. Its been a long 2.5 yrs but I'm somewhat bored of it and seriously thinking of going big.

I feel in love with the FC2000 kit from RE-Amemiya's time attack car but I've always drooled over the RE-A FD builds...




Question is.... Do you guys think I could trade my FC for a very nicely maintained FD straight up?


or....what would be a good selling price for my FC as is?

just keep the FC and get an FD!

Yeah, you'll NEVER get what you shelled out for the FC, I shelled out a few bucks for my T2 Vert, I don't even want to guess what people would offer for it.

Although a FCs has a RX-7 tag, the real RX-7s are SA/FB and FDs so I dont blame Eddie. However, you better not do a LSX conversion. lol

I dont see why anyone would hate on FCs...its only the most commonly engine swapped RX7 out there. It has to be for a reason. Anyway.....

not trading it anymore, just flat out selling it.
