My RX7 project...in process again.

[Jonflip29]

Decided to mess with the FC again today since it was rainning. Started to gut out the interior today. Next the dash comes completely out, then on to pull the motor and trans. I'll update pics after each day.

[quickdodge®]

Get that damn thing moving, dude. Come on, man. Later, QD.

[JITB]

what was wrong with it?

[Jonflip29]

what was wrong with it?

Nothings wrong with it. Runs fine and all. Just trying to build a track/drift car. Plus I want to paint it a different color so I want to paint the whole chassis one solid car that I can have as a base. I don't like red.

Well shiit. Scratch my previous post. Later, QD.

[SLOWR/T]

Nice build. Ill be working on mine more once I get a tranny and stuff

[FasTech]

Damn, are you crazy? That car looks to be in way to good of shape to be turned into a track car...lolol

Howcome you just didn't find an old junker to use?


What kind of track car? Drift, autocross, drag?

[Jonflip29]

A lil' bit of everything...expect drag. I'm not a str8 line kinda dude. Yea the car is in good shape but I replaced a old junker with this one. I can't keep a car stock tho. LOL.

Would you like some gunmetal FD wheels with tires to trade for your aftermarket wheels. You know to keep weight down for a race car. (And because those would look good on my FD)

[87 Turbo II]

[Jonflip29]

[JITB]

lol yea im on my way..i think ive owned all the FWD mazdas... , and i got a 929 now, so ill be there soon enough..

[redrumracer]

maybe one day ill get around to improving my fc by putting a v8 in it instead of just letting it sit without an interior or motor/trans.

[SLOWR/T]

Ill update the thread once I get outta the hospital and get working on it more.

Dont click on my build thread when I create it then

Thats why I went straight there. We need to have an IA RX7 meet though. There are ALOT more on here than there used to be.

[quickdodge®]

Just don't show the engine, lolol. Then I can click on it and leave (hopefully) positive comments.

I could come. I'd just have to bring the pics of mine when I had one. Lolol. Later, QD.

[scabtastic]

from the pics that i have seen your rx7 was LOW, EXTREMELY LOW. or atleast it appeared that way.

[quickdodge®]

^^^ It was.

Heheh.

1997. Later, QD.

[redrumracer]

god i like rx7 and that one looks nice, prob a bumpy ride, but thats livable considering how low my b2000 was and how it was lowered, along with my blazer.

[Elbow]

That's TOO low

[redrumracer]

That's TOO low

there is no such thing.

[Jonflip29]

Good lawd! QD that thing is low! Nice, I like it.

But yea agreed, there are a lot of rx7s on IA that don't get much attention. We should have a meet. I can bring mine out in a few weeks. I need to put a few things back together and some front brakes. It'll be nice to have a meet before I really tear it apart.

[Elbow]

there is no such thing.

Um yeah there is lol, too low is ugly, and handles worse then stock.

[NoRotor]

That's blasphemy, not improving, lolol. Later, QD.

Ignorance is bliss

[quickdodge®]

Exactly.

Um yeah there is lol, too low is ugly, and handles worse then stock.

No sir. Who said anything about needing handling? I didn't race the car. It was just a cruising car.

Ignorance is bliss

You must be a pretty happy fellow, then, huh? Later, QD.

[NoRotor]

Wow, you're so clever.
Have you ever ridden in an FD with an LSx?

[redrumracer]

what he said

its a certian lifestyle that some people dont understand.

[redrumracer]

Wow, you're so clever.
Have you ever ridden in any RX7 with an LSx?

fixed

[quickdodge®]

Wow, you're so clever.

As were you with your snappy come back.

Have you ever ridden in an FD with an LSx?

No I haven't. I don't plan on it in the near future either. Not because I don't want to but because I don't know anyone with one. I don't really know anyone, personally, that has an RX7. I don't care for the any of the models past the 2nd gen. I'm an old school person. I'm one of the ones that don't care much for cross-branding cars. So what? Don't be so offended by what I post. It wasn't an attack. It was just an opinion on my personal preference. Later, QD.

[NoRotor]

I can understand and appreciate that. Maybe when I get my wheel fixed, I can give you some first hand experience that might change your mind.
