My rx7 daily

I'm sure there is a vac drawing somewhere with the boost controller hose connections added.

I just used the pfc for boost control on seq twins.

Spoiler and side skirts at the paint shop to get the car looking more presentable this year, will have a full respray once ive finished the engine and mapping.

also gave it a bit of a wash, i do prefer it with the spoiler on so cant wait to get that back now.

Needs wheels desperatly so any recomendations then fire away.

Thanks for looking ?

I quite like those wheels tbh, just need spacing better.

Black is such a nice colour on standard body fd's, looks awesome mate

 

[deanflowers]

Racing beat skirts - i had them on my last one

 

[Fiddy]

I think it looks awesome without the spoiler. But I’m biased haha

 

[Tjp8]

Finally had the spoiler and side skirts painted, also picked a set of wheels up yesterday . Hopefully get it looking tidier this year.

Gorgeous fd mate, enjoyed reading your story with her. I remember I sold my very first fd to buy the 350z even it came out.....quickly regretted it and that’s when I knew I’d never drive anything else. Keep up the good work on her, she’s a lovely example.

Wheels test fitted , had to remove them though as my wheel nuts were too big to fit and tighten up , so ive ordered some new wheel nuts and some spigot rings, fitment is pretty good, arches will need a roll and il raise the rear until the tyres are worn so i can run a slightly skinnier tyre.

 

[Rehab.pr]

Much better

What wheel nuts did you get out of interest?

What wheel nuts did you get out of interest?

D1 spec i think there called, hopefully theyl fit and be good quality , should be here in a couple of days ?

 

[Tjp8]

Forgot ti update this , wheels fitted , arches rolled, spoiler and side skirts fitted, also fitted a rear windscreen joiner as that was missing. Cars now at rx motors having a service and check over and fit my feed downpipe.
Just a couple more things todo next week then itl be readyish for jdm coomb ?

 

[Tjp8]

Cars back from rx motors, passed the mot no advisories sweet well happy about that.

Looked around the car and some asshole has dented the drivers rear wing in. Not happy at all.

Tim offered to have it pulled out but id have to wait till next week and its 45 mile drive from where i live.

So many emotions rite now.

 

[Ceylon]

Ah that's crap, how bad is it?

 

[Tjp8]

It pulls out but then pops back in, its not massive but its right on the curve , not creased or split the paint.

 

[Ceylon]

Ah hopefully you'll get away with some paintless dent removal then .

Havent updated this for a while, car made it to jdm combe , heres a pic on stand with my cousins r34.

And a more recent picture.

Love the look of this car. Plans next are find the coolant leak fix that and get it mapped then the car will get a full respray

 

[Tjp8]

Decided to take the car to a meet in bath, heres a pic of my rx7 and my cousin's r34 gtt. Was a good meet but as you can see from the pic i dropped a bit of coolant.

So now the cars booked in February to have a street port and full rebuild to put my mind at rest and also to stop chasing these little issues .

Hopefully this year i can make it to more meets and shows without worrying how much coolant i have left

Great car, just skimmed the thread from the start, fairplay working in the street and it looked wet Slightest mist the other day and I didn’t bother and always blame not having a garage!

Love a black fd, are you still planning a respray? Hope it’s staying black.

Also, how is your front plate mounted st that angle? Is there a bracket bolted to the bumper?
