i dont understand something. how can it be "your wife's"??? how?? your married right....so its your car also. so like, do you need to ask her permission to drive it??? your wife actually modifies it and knows about it??

please explain what you mean by it your wife's??

you guys know how things go, they both "own" the car but that his wife's daily driver, and he has his own.

now if his wife is the one doing the modding, i don't know...

Alright guys. This is my wifes project car. I have my own project which is a widebody Turbo MR2. Of course they are both "our" cars, the RX7 just happens to be what I bought as her project. Yes, she does know plenty about the car and has been there every step of the way with the modifications we've done to it. We actually met through our car club and shes been modifying cars as long as I have. I never have to worry about saying "honey, we're gonna need to spend $XXXX for the single turbo and FMIC".
This is what we both love to do. I feel lucky to have someone that gives me no grief over spending money on the cars. I gave her a choice of jewlery or rims for our 3 yr. anniversary, she picked the rims


JoeD- I got 18x8.5 front and 18X9.5 rear. I got them from a local shop Pann Auto Performance. Give them a call and ask for Thomas. 619-278-7266. He'll give you a great deal.

Potatobbq- I just moved to La Mesa by Grossmont Center. PM me so we can get in touch.

Glad you guys seem to like it. Thanks for all the compliments.

Nick
