I think it's gorgeous, the kit let alone the paint look great. Not a big fan of the converted headlights or the rims but yea. Still wanna know who owns it so I can ask some Q's

It's sweet. The paint is really nice agree. Don't care for the headlights but they look well done at least.

what valance makes you frown? the FB has a timeless look. i remember seeing them when i was a kid and wanting an RX-7 since i can remember, it sickens me to think that most people associate an RX-7 with the FD. there would bbe no FD without the SA/FB.

no, i don't know who ownes the car. i like the color though.

I like the headlights. I would believe everything would tie in with a better set of rims.. Clean paint job though.

I love the look of the car no doubt, but I do like throwing on a kit in the front. the sides I would never and the rear perhaps. besides that its gorgeous.

I forget what the guys name is but my car was parked a couple cars down from it at rotorfest 2 years ago. The picture doesn't do it justice. especially since it doesn't show the 9 sec 1/4 it ran.

I think it is perfect. Anyone notice the rear wheel wells have been modded slightly for some extra meat underneath??

Later,

The rear view mirrors look pimp with that paint. I kinda like the burnt orange metallic.

IIRC, it was featured in an issue of rx tuner, but not surprising a lot of people didnt see it. i think he was running around 40psi of boost

Yeah that's definitely Romeo. That car looks/ sounds amazing, and like Dave said it runs mid 9s, no nitrous. I think I remember hearing he was switching to an FD though.
