Hello,

After owning a Rx7 since febuary and driving it about 3 times,shes finally finished,when i brought her home,she was in a bit of state,she needed a lot of body work tlc,but the engine was good,after the 2 hour drive back from wales,my battery died and i had no coolant fluid in it,so i decided to take it off the roads for a while i did it up,

this is what she looked like

As you van see pretty standard,the side skirts where falling off,the where massive holes in the boot lid and moisture was getting in,

After 2,700 later a bit of elbow grease,lots of reasearch,and a few phone calls to my mates paul and dave this is what she turned out like,

please duct in your intercooler, after about 30 seconds of boost your intake temps are probably sky high!

other than that, nice car :P
