Received a message today that my build page was voted "Show off of the week". Pretty cool as I've now been contacted by a magazine. Will keep you updated as things unfold.

Congrats man, car looks SWEET!

 

Nice! I thought of you yesterday while on ebay. There's a guy in California selling a red and black 1994 RX with the full Veilside Kit, and all I could think was how choked you'd be if someone bought it and imported it here before your car was on the road. lol

Looking forward to seeing it in person!

 

Looking great! Congratulations!

 

Looks Good Man and Congrats!! Whats the plan for under the hood?

 

Thanks for the props guys!

lol.. Nick86 you are correct! I've been watching that auction as well, seems like the bidding has cooled off, but I guess there is plenty of time left.
If I was in the market for a fortune I think I would scoop up the one at Tyee on the island and convert it to LHD. For 24k it leaves a lot of room to go 20B.

As for under the hood my mod list goes like this for now:

RX7 Specialists Stage 3 Engine, Street port, 99 Rotors and Side Housings, 3-mm Apex Seals, Clearenced and balanced, Oil Upgrades, Dowel Pinned, Apexi Power FC and Commander, Upgraded Fuel Pump, Alky Control Meth Injection System, Fuel Cell with Stainless lines(for Meth), Mazda Speed Short Shifter, Six puck clutch, Steel braided clutch line, Lightened flywheel, Polished UIM and LIM, Stock twins, HKS Blow Off Valve, Greddy Elbow and Polished Intake Pipes, Greddy Stock Mount Intercooler, Greddy Oil Catch Tank, Custom Radiator, Aluminum AST, RX7.com Pulley, HKS Down Pipe,HKS Mid-pipe, Rx7 Specialties cold air Intake and Filters,Racing Beat Exhaust, Black Silicone Hose Kit, Ground Wire Kit, Lokar Throttle Cable, Optima yellow top Battery, Garfinkle Engine Torque Brace, Adjustable Hood Shocks

To be completed before the engine gets fully bolted up:

LIM Heat Blanket
DEI Fire Sleeves
Ceramic Coat Downpipe

Within the next year:

HKS Twinpower
Wideband
Single Turbo ( my stock twins were acquired last year and are really low mileage, so I'm not in a huge hurry)
Upgraded fuel rail
Wiring harness

That's all I can think of for the engine as of now. Open to suggestions if anyone has opinions or advice on my setup, would appreciate the input. My goals are reliability foremost, and I therefore am only shooting for 350-400WHP.

 

The setup sounds good, but if you can you should really go with a small single rather then sticking with the twins. I think you will find that the engine bay temps will be a lot cooler and much cleaner. Ragerdless best of luck with the build

 

that's awesome.. congrads

I'm excited to see this come along....


maybe in the next 2 years us Alberta boys will make the glorious trip out to meet some of you B.C. boys and get a chance to see that sweet FD of yours..

Love the color, I use to not like as much the veilside kit.

But now everytime I see it . Im like nice.

Takes lots of money and dedication to get one running

 

Thanks, has been a long road, pretty happy with how things are shaping up!
