I am a ricer at heart. I kind of like the vertical doors. Most kits I have seen though, they angle outwards; which takes away the whole neato-ness. I wish there was a kit that forced the upwards rotation, without making it swivel. Besides, I could use the extra weight in my car.

Just to enlighten rx7wishing you need to open your ******* eyes their buddy. Look in that engine bay and tell me it looks stock. If you would read what was under the picture you so critically looked at you would see the basic mods, that you are claiming BS on. So don’t come in here running your ******* mouth cause you have 5k into your car, and raise the BS flag. This is the reason the forum is losing its good member that contribute valuable information, and all of your knowledge of your car consists of this website where people are like cattle they travel in a herd. Plus we made 406 RWHP on stock twins at 5k feet above sea level, and that was before the bigger ports and turbo!

Scissor doors are functional, they should make it easier to get your foot out of the door without scratching against the panels. It also would prevent hitting the door against curbs because your car sits so close to the ground. Just because lots of civics have aftermarket ECU's, does that make it a bad idea? The Neon guys run turbos now, are you going to go N/A to avoid being like them?

) so thats why most people are stuck with using a kit that angles slightly outward.See this thread for pics and descriptions: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...vertical+doors

Rhymin is one of the guys who did all the work on this car. As far as the lambo doors, it makes it easy to get in and out of my car since I have to park so close to my Tahoe in the garage. Since then my Tahoe has been stolen. I knew alot of people wouldn't like the doors but I really could care less. They have a purpose more than just looks. I don't care if people pull the B.S. flag on me...I hardly believe the times it puts down too.

I never understood why some ppl ignorantly hate on bodykits as being "rice" but then apply a different (double) standard to certain aftermarket appearance items, just cuz they may personally be fond of them. Get off your high horse... There's NOTHING to brag about when it comes to a car being "stock" other than a) it being in rare original condition, or b) how fast it is in stock form. End of story.
The rest of us just have a need to express ourselves, and one of the ways we do that is through our cars. I guess your love for a "stock" FD means you're a pretty plain/boring guy, huh?
Back on topic....MichaelB145, congrats on the car. Those are some incredible #s...how are you making that kind of power on the stock twins, might I ask? What's your secret?
Also, love the car. Very good lookin. And of course, I love the doors. But then again, that's just me being biased, cuz I have lambo doors too

Grrr. Everyone grow up.
There are much NICER ways to go about saying these things, and then you avoid frustration, looking *really* immature, and basically killing this forum.
Try: "Are you claiming 500hp on stock twins highly modified? I find that hard to believe....care to elaborate?"
And then: "Hey, I think he means on an aftermarket single. I've seen it before."
We can all do without the "Dumbass, Bitch, etc" since it really ONLY shows a lack of factual information or true argumentative points and simply makes you look like a 7th grader arguing over lunch.

I dyno'ed at 409 horse power with stock twins, and now I have a GT35/40 and I said I should easily be over 500 horse. We will see. RX7Wishing...I think the only reason MMonoco was pissed is that you pulled the B.S. flag out before you had all the facts. MMonoco is just a New Yorker at heart with a quick temper. Me and him went at it also about some stupid **** and now were cool.

I could be wrong but I thought the 383 was before the fuel system and FM. The day it pulled the 409, it had also pulled a few other low 400's. And about one week later that engine popped.

Your right the 383 was before the fuel system and the Greddy 2 row IC. I forgot about that...as far as why this topic changed to the engine...well...someone pulled the B.S. flag out on this car. As far as the doors go...I sell them for $1800 and will ship it to you. Email me if your interested. It is a bolt on kit. The first door took 6 hours and the second door only took 2 hours. It was a little easier once you figure out how they go on. Rhymin can answer any questions pertaining to the install. Like his avatar says..."he can fix that"!
