I've spotted this car multiple times in passing and saw it once in a home depot parking lot but never when I have a chance to stop. If this is your car or you know who's car it is hit me up cuz I really wanna revive the rotary scene here in the stl area.

Impressive how well the paint is holding up considering how far north that is

Thats what Im working on at the moment. I've even considered enrolling in a trade school to become a body man. Nice FD btw any specs on her?

Lots of them lol. The bodykit is barely held on thanks to a friend who said he'd install it in exchange for my body panels so he could fix his that he wrecked. I was thinking I'm going to completely remove the body, drill holes in the body where I want to mount the kit, weld flange nuts in those holes, then bolt down the bodykit. Not the smoothest look, but I can remove it when I need to do work on the rest of the car. The engine is rebuilt, ported, single gt35/40r, 850 primaries, 1600 secondaries, entire engine is ceramic coated, a'pexi gt intercooler, koyo rad, power fc, racing beat exhaust, and a jakobs ignition hooked up like **** by the previous owner and I haven't had the time to sort it out. Chassis and suspension has greddy strut tower brace, rx7.com heim joint adjustable rear trailing arms and toe rods, a six point cage to install when I have time, mazdaspeed ppf, kaaz rear end, 4.10 rear gear, advan rs 18" rims with nitto nt555 tires and a jdm trans. Exterior has a chaser aero fiberglass knockoff of a R E Amemya gt300 widebody kit with carbon fiber diffuser.



Oh, and the interior is completely gutted.
