Nicely done Rx7. Clean and simple, as if it came from the factory that way. Working on dropping a sbf 302 in my 79 Rx7 with the intent of having the same results.

Thanks for the meet info, I'm going to make it out to the October meet for sure!
Very nice FD! I was looking at that one on ebay as well. I ended up picking up a black FD instead......nowhere as clean though! Anyway, i live right there by powerfab, i'd love to meet up for the FD meet this month. I also went to C&C last month and there were only 2 FD's including me! Let me know when you go for that re-tune, i'd like to watch....since its walking distance.

Since the tune was just completed on Monday I probably won't be up there until I get my new headlights in from the SBG group buy as well as my brakes to get all of it installed but I'll shoot you a pm when I do.

Thanks. Reasonable just means it's a price you are happy to pay. I had to look for a while to find this one but it was well worth the wait.

Very stunning car....Although I'm not a fan of removing the rotary heart. Congrats anyway it's still a jewel.

Nice car! Will be even better when you get that **** out from under the hood and put the rotary back.
