RX7 has finally arrived...

[babz_audio]

Well, after buying the car in October 2004 and waiting for the ship to go liverpool which took months...the car arrived last friday and i went on monday to pick it up. i am impressed with the car, although was abit ****ed off as someone had a go at it and nicked my A-pillar gauges and broke the pod, nicked my headunits, my gear knob and tried taking the side mirrors damaging the panel...but hopefully should be getting some money as it was insured on the ship...

few pics here..will get some better ones taken soon...

nice car you\'ve got there looks good after a wash! I like that wing you\'ve got on the back it seems to fit the lines of the car quite well :cool

[gsb876]

Good to finally here you\'ve got it matey !!!!:)


Was talking with Freddy earlier today and it seems that liverpool docks are now just as bad as Southampton docks for security, it seems you can just walk in and help yourself to whatever you want?
:mad:

Hopefully the boat insurance will pay for all you\'ve lost

[Riccardo]

Nice car
why is the hood at the back lifted
Do you have overheating problems ?

[Wav]

Looking good m8, gotta agree it looks much better after a wash:bandit

I should be about all weekend cleaning up the other FD block, hopefully I\'ll also get round to spraying the mirrors on my own car, just need to get faheem to lend me his compressor:rolleyes:

So yeah come round hopefully the snow will have  cleared by then:D

Paul

James S: I have the exact same rear spoiler sat in my garage, if you fancy it give me a pm as I\'m sure we can come to agreement on a good price:)

Paul:p

[Initial-D]

Looks like a really nice car you got there! - can\'t believe the docks let people just stroll in and take stuff tho!??:reallymad

[Icesurf3r]

Nice Rex you have there Wav

Sorry to here about the stuff going walkies! But happy that you should hopefully get it all on insurance!

[babz_audio]

thanks people

Riccardo - the bonnet is lifted to let the heat out, no overheating problems, think its just to keep it nice and cool

Wav - i will pop round on weekend, let this weather sort itself out, gotta sort out the headlights hto, you can barely see them, its got some next PIAA wiring in ther or something, me and faheem are gonna have a look wen we get some time. And i wish there was a spare engine in there..lol, they take pics of wen the car goes on the ship in japan and then wen it comes off into the uk...and then from that they compare and see whats gone missing

i think Wav should put me down on the list for next saturday as a definate as ive booked the day off work too

[Gerry M]

if they\'re RE-A lights then generally they aint great, i think its because they\'re foglights thats used for lighting the beam pattern aint the best, you also get some cutoff from the cowlings. i hid\'d mine earlier this yr & it made quite a differance

[babz_audio]

mine are really really bad...thought it was the bulbs at first, but they are fine...you can barely see them, all you can see is the front dims on the bumper...keep getting people flashing at me

can you giv me some more info on how to sort this problem out please

[James S]

thanks for the offer Wav, but ive not got an FD at the moment

[Gerry M]

is your dips working or it it just the 4 tiny sidelights your seeing?
