  • Hello from race city! (Indy)

    Joining mainly for ideas.

    I have a 90 MX6 Turbo that well.... has had a rough life. Been totaled twice, been hacked up by the previous owners (from what i understand, at least 9 of them. UGH.), and is my daily driver.

    It's quick, handles decently, and is 100% illegal for any sort of competition that i'd be interested in entering it in. So... thinking about stepping outside of my "comfort zone" of building race cars, and having some fun with the aesthetic side of life.

    Believe it or not, this thing has already been dropped 4-5", and i'm already having problems clearing entrances, speed bumps are a no-no (high-sided on three and counting!), and "normal" jacks just won't work.

    In short, the car is already useless when you look at it from the viewpoint of the general public, and i'd be surprised if the car lasted around the motor more than another 2-3 years. So... time to play!

    (Pics go in order of most recent to oldest.) Peep the sick GT-7 knockoffs! Have a set of FD RX7 wheels that i'm prepping to install, will necessitate a big roll/pull.

      On the menu eventually. Have to figure out if i want to just cut my current springs or shell out for some cheap shitty coilovers.

      First order of business, the wheels have GOT to go, and i'd like to get some tint done. Then we'll talk about some taiwan/korean made cheapass coilovers that ride like shit.

            For the moment, the 16x8 FD RX7 wheels i have. Because i have them, they're free, and i already have tires for them. (Will have to come off my Celica.) I know 245/45-16s on 16x8s doesn't really fit with "stance," but i'm not looking to run some ridiculously stretched tires in an area with roads as shitty as we have (i commute 17 miles to downtown every day), with as much power as this car makes. (~300whp/~400wtq) The name of the game is low and aggressive, but still keeping enough function to keep the car reasonably and reliable.

            Down the road, not sure... was thinking some Lover Souls.
