Thanks yeah I am trying to experiment with different camber settings in photoshop lol. I'll post some interior pics when I get the carpet put back in. It has kinda been a restore job.

It's a '79 model RX-7. Has a 12a mild street port from an '85 with a Racing Beat carb setup. Racing Beat header to Apexi N1. B&G suspension with custom strut tower braces. I have a street ported 12a with a Camden supercharger waiting but time and money have neglected it.

Hot damn! This and my 20B would be so sick! When you plan on selling it please notify me. Machado doesn't want to give his up so hopefully you will.

A few more. The day shots were taken around noon and exposure was a pain. My editing skills are rusty.

Yeah if I do eventually part with it I would have to get a Datsun Z. Preferably a 280. That would be my next project. I know it sounds crazy but I plan to put a 20b in one lol.

Car looks awesome, but put down the Unsharp Mask and slowly walk away.

Thanks. Im still quite the amateur with photo editing. Not to mention my camera is shit too. It's a Fujifilm Finepix 10mp. Im trying to save up for a Rebel. I hear the better the original image is, the better the result after editing.

No problem man. I had an addiction to artificial sharpness too and it took somebody just telling me flat out that it looked bad for me back off, so I'm definitely not trying bash you. Frankly, I would just keep at it with your Finepix. A Rebel will not necessarily yield better pics, esp with it being a Canon. ;)

Track down Doppelgänger. He's uses a P&S and kills it.

I normally hate that body style, but this one I must say I love.

I think these pics are a little bit better with unsharpen. And yes it has been about a year or so but you probably did see it in Rome. I haven't been up there in a while. Used to have alot of fun up there.

That's a kit car I saw it a while back and think someone mentioned it was a kit. If it's a 1st gen RX-7 it's INSANELY modified. I know you've seen 1st gens out there SCCA has a spec class for them! lol

yeah im not sure what that is either. looks like a straight up kit car judging from the under chassis. i wonder what kind of rotary it has in it. if anyone else has some other pics or details of it please share.

Who said it's a rotary?

Well being that it is a purpose built car, one could only assume that the owner would want to go with a light weight engine that makes good power. But you are right I suppose. It could have Mazdaspeed6 engine in it too. :]
