Hey guys,



I'm kevin, 18 years and i'm from holland.



few hobbies are RC cars, truckpulling (with european tractor trucks) and since a few months my mazda rx7.





It is a 1991 fc turbo. Previous owner overhauled the engine and modified it with a streetport. Added a 3" corksport exhaust system, greddy type-rs BOV and 5zigen wheels.

A/c and aircompressor have been removed, same for the cruise controle switch and cable.



Since i have it i have been cleaning, repairing. and bought a few things.



Bought clear headlamps, NRG short hub and quickrelease. A Custom made omp corsica wheel and stainless braiden brake lines.



Biggest repair thing i had to do was a rust problem and new brake lines from front to back.





here are some pics:

it sounds kinda bad, but it is the best way to describe rust. Best way is to cut it out and replace it.



But thanks for the reply's.



Hope to sell some things within a month from now. If i did, i can buy some defi gauges that will replace the mechanical boost guage, and a new wide band a/f gauge that will replays the not working low band a/f.

And a apexi air filter.

Hi Kevin , great looking FC3....doesn't seem to be many rotaries in Holland when I've been there.Probably because of the expensive fuel prices? Welcome to no pistons!
