I finally sourced a RX7, aim was to get a standard one, but it turned out not to be that way :) well the main thing is the engine is standard which is what i wanted! but it has a body kit on the car, alloys, coil overs. Not sure what body kit it has, but here are pics of her when its over here i can go over it better.

Cheers matey, body wise the first thing that needs to go is the pop up lights and look at a c-west style flush light kit. Would love to know what bonnet is on this car, personally it looks like a custom one?!

Also it lists the car as green, but you look at a different angel it looks blue lol

Cheers

I saw a couple down the docks in that green, it looks really good when the sun shins on it and the blue comes out :)

The rear bumper and side skirts look like C-West.
That bonnet looks like it should be an early RE-Amemiya bonnet but I haven\'t seen it before.
The front bumper has an RE-Amemiya look to it as well - not sure though.
The colour was a standard Mazda factory flip colour.

Chris your on the right track,.

But Bonnet is a Border type IV item.

Hard to tell from the pic about the front,
Could be RUN or Eastbear.
As I think Early Amemiya AD didnt have those little side vents and used their own indicators.
Cwest sides and rear are definate , but Mirror are anyones guess, Aftermarket ones all look the same.

Anyway Gav, shes a bitsa but still looks good.

Cool, nice one guys as i wouldnt of known those parts were from those manufactures, happy now though :) Yeah it seems like a bitsa lol but all works in harmony though, never seen the green/blue flip jooby paint in the flesh so that will be interesting to see. Well next week i will have more pics so i will post them up.

now I can see, its not east bear,

Re-Amemiya has a very very similar design but they use the square indicators.
