My project RX7

[Tdraper]

Well I work for an importing company and they recently brought this in to learn a little more about RX7\'s, it has done 60k miles and obviously was due a rebuild, it had been driven for about a month and everything seemed fine with the car so maybe the rebuild had already been carried out?, no signs that anything was wrong?, one day though I decided to take it out and it blew up on me! so I bought it to learn about the engine and I am currently stripping and rebuilding it when I have spare time,

it\'s a 1992 and from looking around the forum it turn\'s out to be a type X, this wasnt one I had actually heard of before, it has full red leather(I\'ll be getting rid of),sun roof and full bose stereo system which is a nice touch,  I have big plans for this car, full respray in original colour and the vertex kit, I may even go single when I\'m rebuilding(undecided on the cost of things at the moment)

but I\'ll update on progress anyway,

here are some pics for now & how I\'d like it to look.







Hopefully next spring or earlier it\'ll be like this

Ok a lil update,

I\'ve finally found time and I got the engine out today, I may have done a couple of things differently to most I guess as I disconnected the loom from inside the passenger foot well, I did try to go through the maze of hoses underneath the manifold but this look like the easiest option!

anyway here\'s a couple of pics for now, hopefully soon i\'ll find out what when pop.








oh I\'ve stripped out my red leather too, so if anyone is intersted in buying this then let me know



and this is probably the styling I will go for now,



Thing is now the engines out I\'m already thinking of going single, something which I wanted to do when I had my supra, hmm.....

99 look is the way I am going too. Good on ya.

Although nobody has a Vertex kit so you could be unique with that !!

[antnicuk]

the normal way is to remove the loom as you did.  

That red one looks real good.

If you fancy going single,  do a little porting and go singe at the same time, its the easiest time to do it.

Yeah I love the 99 look, I love near stock and sublte styling, to prove, this was my old supra





there\'s just something about the vertex kit, as said it\'s not normally my taste but it seems like it\'s only the RX7 that can pull off the big wing and styling imo.
