Say Jesse...
Whats a "large side port"? You have a renesys in there to go along w/ the shif **** and road wheels?


Mods... Large Side port, HKS T04E Kit, greed 2 row Front mount Intercooler, 3 Core radiator and SS coolant resovoir, Power FC, HKS Twin Power, OS twin Plate Clutch, Every Defi Gauge known to man and a bunch of other little stuff but that basically sums it up.

It is the RX-7 emblem from the stock tower bar.

I think thats a Pettit front, since it has the 99 lip....But damn nice car, very nice indeed.... But the wheels look much too big, they look like 20's or something in the rear THe color is also very nice... Very clean car you got there

ooh, so many ideas for my car.

Wish I had thought of the rx8 gearknob. I went and bought the feed 'silver *****', it's good, but the first hot day of the japanese summer - ouch! burnt hand

The front looks like and older c-west to me, nut I'm not sure.

nice armrest too - come with the car or did you tack it on later? got a part #?

DaiOni- This car itself came with nothing but a title and a frame, I got the armrest off of one of my parts cars. I dont know the Pt# sorry. I think some guy called jtimports likes to deal with that stuff.


xthaboy17 - yes wheels are stilll for sale $1550 Shipped.

https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...hreadid=206124

I have never fell in love with a set of wheels more than I did the day I put them on. Either the wheels and some other stuff goes or my car goes... .

I have some soft 245 yokahamas and to my surprise it is holding what I have pretty damn well.

1st gear I get a little spin but nothing but 315 Nittos or better is going to completely get rid of that. Second I am good to go now.

I had some hard tires on there before, 285's and they wouldnt hold untill 3rd. The tire make a big diffference. Unless you are past my power level I can honestly give my thumbs up.
