My RX7..

[Retro_Boy_G]

It\'s not finished yet but it was a nice day and i gave her and the civic a clean and just wanted to take some pictures.. I hate taking pictures of the cars on my drive way as the angle makes them look funny.. but you get the picture anyways.. next mods are window tints (im going to attempt it myself) and lowered suspension.. still toying with spoilers too.. The exhaust pipes look a bit squint for some reason.. haha.. must be my magic photography skills.. as i can asure you they are fine!

Mods ive done.. Trim colour coded, rear window wiper removed, arcade button mod, new steering wheel, new alloys and low profile tyres, spoiler removed, New rear lights.. added some blue bolts in the holes where the spoiler came off.. kinda gay, but better than having holes..

Things to do.. Lowered, Tinted, Sunroof rust fixed, Rear reg plate spot light cover painted white, "maybe" debadge it, Centre caps, Paint Calipars, bigger exhausts!.. the list goes on!

Enjoy..

been waiting for this thread for a while

The car looks ace mate!

Not sure if it needs a spoiler tho
An "RX-7" badge in the style of the mazda badge would make it look much better imo
It would also look amazing lowered as the wheels seem quite small, this would be fixed with the lowering.
Also i think it may look good with some small spacers on the front, could be the pics, but it looks  like the front wheels have a diff offset to the rears.


anyway, awesome car!!! i wish mine looked like that

nice to see it comming along so well =)
hav u got stock exhaust on it? looks bit diff..
also what size rims n tyres hav u got on it?

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

The back wheels are bigger than the front. 9J and 8J i believe? As for the badge.. i have tried tracking down an original one but never had any luck.. The holes aren\'t there anymore to clip one on so i would need to cut the pegs off if i did get one and just glue it on.. In photoshop i took away the badges and made the little reg plate flood lights white and it looked amazing!..

The exhaust is a Rotecknics exhaust i believe.. has a very unusual sound.. quite tinny.. but the new tail pipes bring down the rattle a bit.. i think id like something a bit deeper sounding.. but i\'m happy with it all the same.. I\'ll get some video clips up for you guys. It\'s 17" alloys on it.. the tyres are very low profile which i guess makes them look alot smaller than you would think.. once it gets lowered this should sort that out though..  

I think the project will be on hold until after xmas now.. need to save up for presents..

Thanks Ben. Just remembered i need a Turbo bonnet.. i think the scoop makes such a massive difference.. they are just so hard to track down!
