there is this little import/ street racing shop in livermore, its called modacar u might know it. well for a while they had it. every time i went in there with my honda buddy ( yes thats right he has a rsx type s that took a z28) i would ask them how much. well they always seemed to drop the price on me a little more each time. then i moved to idaho. when i came back i decided i was going to buy it. the last price i was given was 150 i didn't think that was bad at all. so i went in and asked what kinda deal i could get, and before i finished the sentence the owner/manager said 50 bucks. i said heres my card haha. they had the same one for like 2 years and never sold it. gotta be happy the parts don't fly off the self for our cars like they do for hondas. we can bargin they can't haha. my buddy was pissed he said he couldn't even get used long tube headers for less then 100.

Your car is a joke.. The rims look terrible, the Sticker??? Oh and if you are going to convert to S5 go all the way the mixed mouldings look like shit.

Also lower that damn thing..

I do have a few things I've never seen on another FC:

First, my favorite:

https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1216091523

I have no idea what kind of spoiler it is, but I really like how it looks.

Secondly, I just put a Dynomax exhaust on my car. Its basically stock looking, and should sound pretty good. I guess its not super rare, but I never hear it talked about on FC's. I literally just put it on an hour ago, so no pics yet.

that is wangan wing (sp?)

S5TII 07-21-08 11:36 AM

Thats definately not a Wangan wing.

The Griffin 07-21-08 12:16 PM

Looks like a "Kaminari" wing.

Dont care I got those rims performance purposes they are light and really strong.

My car is lowered with Adjustable Tokico HTS601Rs

The sticker goes good because its RHD no one really in my area has RHD.

I like molding to the fender better then the stock.

RRTEC 07-21-08 02:15 PM

Shocks dont lower the car....

That isn't a wangan wing. A wangan wing is basically a whale tail wing that comes off the back off the car. There are a couple of manufacturers that made them in Japan but there are 2 her in the US that make good replicas. Here is the Type I wing from Re Amemiya for reference. Hope that helps

No.....I'm guessing it's actually because you're an Initial D fan....I wouldn't do it, but who am I to say what people should do to their own cars.

That isn't lowered, you've got at least a good 2 inches in fender gap there. I bet you those shocks and springs brought you too your old height, simply because your old, tired OEM setup was sagging.

I'm not hating, just telling you.



Edit - Superstock, you have a PM.

RRTEC 07-23-08 10:02 AM

Well duh! Isn't the initial D car RHD. I wouldn't have put the sticker on if my car if it wasn't RHD. That was my point.

Juiceh 07-23-08 12:28 PM

the way your car sits now, i don't even think the "redsuns" would want you in their crew... and are those REAL VOLK Racing wheels? Because I've never seen them before, and they don't look like they're "Volk quality"... please prove me wrong.... or actually, :jerkit: I take that back... I hope Rays Engineering never ever made a rim like that!! :puke:

i hate to rain on your parade, but this is what you're doing to the redsuns: :op:

Napsterfreak15 07-23-08 01:07 PM

Yes they are real Volks racing rims. I think they were only offered to the Japanese market but what do I know I dont even know if my car is lowered.

Anyone else have anything to say about my car??? LETS HEAR IT!!! I absolutely love hearing how everyone hates my car.

Its sad this thread gets hijacked to let a fellow rx owner know how sucky their car is

we ALL love RX7's here, and we'd all wish nothing less than for every owner to have a genuine taste (UNLESS YOU'RE A HATER!!). there's a reason that those who've been around "the game" for awhile have stayed away from cheap parts (eBay knockoffs, replicas, etc.). if you REALLY love something, you'd only offer what you feel is BEST for it. sometimes it takes awhile to figure that out, and most people will settle for a "temporary answer" before they figure it out... [that's why patience is a virtue ;)]

there's a reason people are bad mouthing your ride, and it's because they'd like to see better. sure you don't have to impress anyone, but others feel there's better out there that you're DEFINITELY missing out on. "everyone deserves the best, so why settle for less?"

so you can take everyone's "common" response to your car as either insult, or "fuel" to push you into the right direction... [blacksheep] the choice is yours :cool:

^ prime example above... His car looked like ass before, he took advice off the forum (in stride) and look at his car now.. It used to have a nasty spoiler, cheap interior parts, and a not so flattering front end....

ePH C freak 07-23-08 03:27 PM

^ hey you leave my car alone!! :rlaugh: it wasn't THAT bad was it?!! :D

i'm also proud of my Bride Zeta II bucket seat that keeps my ass in one place...

and the modernized S5 tails as well... it gives the ass end of the car what i like to call a "retro look"...
