Hey guys! Wow, I wasn't expecting so much feedback! Thanks for all the friendly comments!

Currently just finished building a home recording studio as it's a side passion of mine, and I also finished building my Ruckus so it'll be going to sleep till next spring.

But the RX7 has not been forgotten and is fairly soon going to be getting the treatment it deserves. As of lately, I've just been enjoying the car as it is my daily driver and I drive it EVERYWHERE. Currently sitting at 118,000kms.

The exhaust was custom made with 2 mufflers, an inline, and the 3" in 4" out rear box. It bolts to the stock cat converter and downpipe. Very snug and I love it, but I will be rebuilding a new one out of stainless and a new Vibrant 3" Muffler.

So, what's happening in the next few months:
- RB Downpipe
- PBM Coilovers
- Rebuild exhaust w/ test pipe
- AEM WB O2 Sensor kit
- New set of tires (215/45/17) all around
- Refinish the Advans with a Gloss Black Lip; Matte Black Face, and Gold Painted Rivets.
- Rear Camber Arm
- New Stiffer Motor Mounts

Hoping to get all this done this Winter. I may be driving this car through winter depending on how bad the snow gets. If it's terrible here in BC this year, I may opt to buy a cheap winter daily but hopefully I won't have to resort to such garbage. I'm going to try and get a LOC out for my motor/turbo/Haltech build. So keep your eye out on that.

Cheers everyone!

Thanks man! That means a lot considering it's still very much stock haha. I just try to take care of it as best I can, even if it is raining/snowing out there , lol.

The Advan's that I sold were : 17x8 -1 Offset on each wheel.

I'll take some pictures tonight and post them. Nothing special ! Just battleship fitment on stock T2 blades!

I really wish I could edit my original post. Plans have changed and I've got some things to update.

Picked up a few things:
BBS RS (16x8.5 +35; 16x7.5 +35)
Falken Ziex 912 205/45/16 x4
Megan Racing Track Coilovers
Ichiba V2 Spacers 25mm front; 38mm rear
OEM Brake Master Cylinder
AEM Wideband O2 kit w/ 52mm Gauge Cup
3" Downpipe
3" Test Pipe
Mazdaspeed Engine Mounts

Thinking of getting my RE Amemiya front bumper repaired...but might end up just throwing a stock S5 front bumper on and getting my fog lights on and sourcing an S5 front lip or a Shine Auto front half.

Lots of stuff in the works, wish I could edit my original post...oh well!

Cheers,

Kev
