YEah I want another FC, only problem is my standards are super high. I mean... look at hat I was driving before? A near mint TII with 105K original miles, and a perfect interior with a fesh coat of paint. De badged and mean looking with a modified front bumper? Ugh I hate myself for crashing it. My FB is actually quicker, but it's just not the same.....

Man what can I say about all this positivity on FCs... I'm loving it.. And for the front bumper, I just try to be different. But I do have another front bumper that's y I cut that one, will replace it later when I have time. And my plans. Ummmmmm... I know for dam sure I'm keeping it ROTARY!!(no turbo).. Its in my DNA. And well for rite now just suspension, block off plates, headers, rims, S5 black interior, RE Amemiya Rear Spoiler (from Corksport.com), paint job (getting tired of the primer lol), and basically that's it for now.. But I will say thank you to everyone for their comments.. I'm loving it.. Thanks and keep it coming.. And if any of you guys need help on FC's or ever get one, please come to me for help.. Ill help you out no matter what.. I LOVE FC'S!!.

P.s. That road is off Singleton Rd, by Jimmy Carter.. Maybe u guys see me driving around in Forsyth, I work up there..

Oh and for the hood... that's a good question.. Lol I guess it keeps my engine cool?? Lol no I'm kidding.. I bought it like that.. I had a TurboII hood but some thief needed it more than me.. Oh well ill find another 1..

FC's are becoming very popular by the way. If you are looking into RWD.. Please go with a FC.. They are so fun. And pretty good daily drivers.. Mine is pretty good.. Ill post up sum mods I've done to it later.. Thanks again.. More pix please of your personal FC's..

Thanks.. Rotary Roger!!

thanks bro, ive had a couple civics myself.. RWD is the way to go.. but V8 swaps are getting old now.. its better to work with what you got.. jus like how teggy motors to civics... those swaps are getting old too.. nothing new anymore.. better to keep all original like same engine and shit and just tune that engine.. u get me? no offense on the honda shit.. i would love to see someone do a V6 to civic swap..

2rotor I did a LSD Swap so no open diff for my car and I can drift a open diff.. Its a little more work..

Tdurr.. I had told u rong.. I ran the LSD tag and its GTUs rear LSD.. So its a 4.30 ratio instead of the 4.10 from the GXL..

fininfarina.. Thanks, and yea you should find a FC fast because they are not going for a lot on the market..

Kalifornia087.. I was about 16 or 17 when I had my 1st rx7 it was a Sport and I loved it, but I had to sell it.. And now I have this one which I love a lot!! And I see you love turbos.. That's good but I'm not a big person for turbo's..

you punk ass, was that you that wouldnt let me pass one night, in like may, right before buchanan highway? i was like "wtf, im not trying to race, let me turn jerk!"
i cannibalized my royal maroon/primer/sunrise/black base model for the one in my sig after i painted it.
i used to work up at the advance autoparts in hiram in 05 before i left for school.

idk if he still has it or not, but there is a pretty clean GXL for sale down in dallas, the guy couldn't get it running very well until i hopped over and helped him run it down to his AFM.
