Well hopefully if im lucky ill be picking up a 88 RX-7 shell. Ive been lookin for one for a couple weeks now, and this morning I posted on here asking if anyone around had one. Well I went out driving for awhile tonight and stopped at a couple shops. The 2nd shop I stopped at no one was there just a phone number on the window. well I walked out back and there she sat. No motor, full interior. Needs a passanger door. But other then that it seems solid. I am going back tomorrow to take a look at the underside.



If thats good ill have the car this weekend and ill start the tear down.



THe plans so far are this.

1.Fully Strip

2.Start exterior bodywork

3.Repair any rust

4.Repair anything on interior

5.Repair anything wrong in the engine bay

6.Repair Jams

7.Cut firewall out,

8.Replace with JDM firewall

9.RHD Conversion

10.JDM Motor

11.Bodykit

12.Suspension

13.Seats and harnesses

14.repaint brand new color =]

15.Carbon Fiber hood? Maybe

16.Brakes

17.Rims



Also there will be performance, but without doing research yet IDK where to start on motor work.





There has to be more i wanna do but right at the moment thats all I can think of.. So whats everyone think so far. This is gonna be the first major conversion for our custom shop so I figurd out why not do my own vehicle first...





Pictures of the project tomorrow prolly

Good luck man, i hope you have a FAT WALLET.



^_^

ah not deep enough, bodywork is done by myself, and the RHD conversion ill be doing as well. That should go down this winter...

where are you located? i'm trying to figure out the purpose of going RHD, unless you're just a 2fast2furious kid who wants a blue ground effects kit as well https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

Im in NY. Purpose for me going RHD, is because I like everything I do to be different. RIght now I drive a 01 GTI withJetta front end conversion. and shaved rear emblem, shaved antenna, shaved hood notch, shaved front bumper, molded GLI Lip



So yea I wanna be different, im in NY near Binghamton. and all the work will be going down this winter in the garage, ill take pictures of everything for everyone.

O And no underglow

nice congradulations where up by binghamton are u located i have a house in PA off rt.81 exit 11 near susquahanna

well im about 20 min past bing near sidney... bUT I go to college inBinghamton at BCC

no offense, but doing a RHD conversion is no longer original. theyve now moved on to "center seat drive" conversions.



anyway, thats a pretty generic "to-do" list... might want some more detail there.



on a side note, i have 60 acres in Windsor, NY, just outside of binghamton...and its on the susquehana.



kevin.

very cool



I know ill change the list when I get going but right now its just that simple un explained list. No one here has a RHD anything so here im hoping that with doing this, it will give me some experience to do my buddies 240sx and maybe get some outside work later on.

soudn good..sounds like u have a plan..just hope u have a good daytime job.
