Hello, my name is Harrison. I am from Albuquerque, NM. I come from the "Stance/hellaflush" scene, my old car being a 2007 scion tc:

It was always ridiculously low, and very slow. So it got boring. And one day it told me a joke, it went like this:

"knock knock!"

-"Who's there?"

"Your engine."

Second toyota to give in to rod knock for me. I changed the oil synthetic every 3k miles, didnt race it, etc. Weird.



So, I ended up buying this:

It is a 1987 Rx7 NA shell with a full TII swap (engine, lsd, etc)

Mods include:

-S4 Engine w/ S5 intake manifold, S4/S5 Hybrid turbo, S5 550cc Injectors

-Rotary Works V-Mount

-Poweredbymax Coilovers

-JTP Knuckles

-3" downpipe/Exhaust to Blitz Nur-Spec fart cannon

-Bolt In half cage

-17x9/10.5 Mustang Bullitt Wheels

-Unknown make Rear Sway Bar (its green)

-Shine Auto hood

-Nasty ricer widebody fenders



So, in my first three days of owning it, it looked like this:

I am experiencing some engine gremlins with it now... But I'll eventually get it all sorted out. I hope. I've already ordered a Sparco Rev for the Driver's side, RC 750cc High Impedence injectors and an RTEK 1.7. Searching for a front bumper as well as some drift spares. It will be a fun project!
