Hey all. Im a fellow FC enthusiast. I have just gotten to the phase where my car has a running engine and straight body, so Im going to strip it down and paint it. However, I have no idea where to go with my performance setup! I need info on tires, rims, suspention, engine mods, and body work so I can make an informed decision. So show off your goods and inspire me. Heres the last picture of mine:

That doesn't look like a very safe way to suspend a car... lol

keistyle

i concur haha

Personally, if you're going to stay n/a, port the engine, full exhaust, intake, and a good suspension setup is all you need.

Thats like the safest way to put up a car. lol. Nah, I have to do it the ghetto way because I cant afford a car lift yet. I was underneath it just recently dropping the transmission. Its nice and stable.

Get some paint bro. The next step on my ride is a full strip and then its up on the rotisserie for a fresh coat of white. Im building the FC2000 RE-Amemiya car pretty much. Its gonna be a street car, but its going to have a completely stripped out interior, just the basics, seats a dash, the new AVIC reciver. All my money is going under the hood, and into the suspention so I can have a car that handles like dream. So if anyof you people posting your car pics, if you would post all your mods and say what they did for your car, that'd be hella sweet. I need help, Im a rotary noob.

technically, its n/a...
inspiration? go some kinda coilovers (Stances are very popular), sway bars, poly bushings everywhere, individual camber adjusters (dont buy the center bar- it screw up the pinion angle), mustang wheels are a good solution for cheap wheels. any of the 17" wheels for 98-04 mustangs fit great. you can run 17x9 all around on 245/40/17 (with modded fenders and coilovers).
for body, my fav setup is 20mm front fenders, shine front bumper, FC2000 skirts and diffuser, and rolled/pulled rear fenders. thats about how my car will end up whenever i get around to it. like this car- https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ghlight=fc2000

Well who can I trust to roll my fenders? I sure as hell dont trust myself. For rims Im thinking about running some super light weight BBS rims (gotta give some love to BBS, Ferrari F1 cars roll on BBS). Man, I need someone to come down to texas and help me work on my FC. Sweet ideas though man! Thanks for the input!
