Hi all,

My name Joop, 26 and from a small town near Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

I\'ve been into opels all my life, however I wanted to own a rx7 at some point, so I am looking around, and reading into them.
Most likely I will be asking some noob questions LOL

At the moment I own 3 opels (nova swapped to a 2.0 16v, mk1 astra for cruising stupidly low and mk5 astra gtc as a daily)

If interested I can do some pics of my current cars.

Welcome to MRC :wave

We have a few Dutch members on here - the rotaries seem very popular over there

Got any pics of the Mk1 Astra?

It\'s an old pic , at the moment she is getting new doors, and I\'m having some custom coilovers made , so that we can go lower.. panscraping FTW.

Wheels will be swapped for zender turbo II, same idea wheel, only much much rarer.

:o I love those wheels!

Whats the pcd on them?

The ones on the pic? Ronal turbo in 15 inch, 4x100.

Hmmmm.... if those came in 4x110 I\'d be in love

What Rx7 are you looking for? SA22, FB, FC, FD?

LOL:D
Op de nederlandse rx club ook al aangemeld?

mayhem · June 06, 2012, 07:14:36 PM

Lol i am not sure, I know there are different 4 and 5 stud versions.
4x110 can run ford fitment with wobble bolts or have the holes adjusted at a local machine shop.

I am looking for an FD.
Most likely it will be somewhere this winter, but I want to know as much as possible before spending my money

Any tips on getting one from Japan or from the UK? Prices are about the same, miles are about the same, only in the UK 5k is getting me a 93 fd with a \'recent\' rebuild and some mods like an apexi fc, or even single turbo... 5k is getting me a stock 1996 fd in Japan due to the expensive boat trip.. and i assume export company\'s in japan are not compression testing on request? :p

Informeer maar eens bij Hoebeke in Rilland:Giggle

Probably better off buying from the UK, as at least that way you can come over and view the car before you pay for it etc?
