Rixio

You cant...well you can but its not worth it talking a good £5-£10k i reckon to get it done proffesionally

greatwhite

well rewox said they would do it for 2k which ant tht bad sme other companys would do it 4 15oo but if u wnt the best then rewox is the place . after all tht i lost out on the car the owner told other people b4 me and didnt get bk to me u will soon c the rx7 on here once conversion is dne im gutted u lot wiat till u c it but my guess ies it will b on here within a month its from japan 544bhp at 1.1 bar won jap shows and in usa, its well knw car its all black with chrome alloys its is the best ive seen and one of the fastest i could of got it for 8750k as it was lhd, if the bloke got bk to me sooner it would hv been mine,so with it converted would of owed me nearly 11k but will b sold now i recon for 17k plus lost out on a truly magnificent rx7 with alot of profit and enjoyment lost no dought uit will b in all the jap mags also thnk the new owner is tuning it to 600bhp it got 11.7 at 123 mph at japans drag strip at 544bhp so its gna at least get a low 11s high 10s watch out i the future for this rx7 its a one of ,im just gutted i will c it and wnt b mine lol

Not just me struggling with that then!

I\'ve read it all now, and I think I get it.
 
QuoteWell, RE-Worx said they would do it for £2k - which isn\'t that bad. Some companies would do it for £1,500 but if you want the best then RE-Worx is the place to go.
 
After all that, I lost out on the car (the owner told other people before me and didn\'t get back to me). You will soon see the RX-7 on here once the conversion is done. I\'m gutted! You lot wait until you see it, but my guess is that it will be on here within a month.
 
It\'s from Japan running 544bhp @ 1.1 bar. It\'s won Jap shows and in the USA. It\'s well a known car, it\'s black with chrome alloys and it\'s the best I\'ve seen, and one of the fastest.
 
I could\'ve got it for £8,750 as it was LHD. If the bloke had got back to me sooner it would have been mine. So with it converted it would have owed me nearly £11k but it will be sold now, I reckon for £17k. Plus, I lost out on a truly magnificent RX-7 with a lot of profit and enjoyment.
 
No doubt it will be in all the Jap mags - also I think the new owner is tuning it to 600bhp. It got 11.7 @ 123mph at Japans drag strip at 544bhp, so it\'s going to get 11\'s or high 10\'s. Watch out in the future, this RX-7 is a one off. I\'m just gutted I will see it and it won\'t be mine lol!

I am more worried that he might buy a car which simply isn\'t worth the money he says it is. Take a look at the market for FD\'s and figure out the risk you are taking on with a car of this value. If you aren\'t interested in keeping it I would strongly advise not speculating on highly modified cars as their value is highly subjective and you could wait a long time to get your money back, or not at all.
 
However, if you want a high power modified import with no history, you are going the right way about it.

You spent time from your own life translating that!!? You have more patience than me.

As to buying a modified car to convert from LHD to RHD to sell on for profit, i doubt he\'d get very far. Not many RX-7\'s are worth £17k! Just because they develop 500-600bhp, doesn\'t make them worth a lot.

Yeah, it started off as a good diversion from work and ended up being really boring - it does show how good txt spk is for compressing english into small spaces!
