  • 88 fc3s build

    Well I picked up a 88 rx7 a few weeks back. Traded my wheels set of centra 7's and a little cash for it. Its just a shell overall pretty mint no motor or tranny. paint in decent shape great starting point for a v8 swap. So all you rotary nut swingers can leave now.
    Plans are to use a granny sped shop mount kit
    Decent set of full body coil overs
    Chaser vanish body kit
    My 16x8 volk progressiv mesh that are currently on my accord
    the 5.3 ls is at my uncles house he going to freshen it up for me with new gaskets a cam some headwork still need to buy a t56
    follow me on instagram for faster updates @cb7_tracie

    Picking her up from the previous owners house

    Got here to my storage unit to start on it
    and such just needs a good clean and a new dash trim piece




    And the body no rust and prety clean all over found only two dents nothing to crazy or deep

    And the bay my starting point going to start stripping of unercary things and degrese and clean the crap out of it and may try a wire tuck


    And were Im at as a few days ago going for a full wire tuck, painting the car charcoal gray metallic and a full custom gauge cluster
    Got the engine bay pretty much stripped need to unhook the headlight harness and that whole harness will be ready to come out. Got the racing beat exhaust removed and also the drive shaft. The bay will need to be repainted because the drive side is flacking up from brake fluid and gunk so ill try and knock that out sometime in next few weeks. And also removed thsoe RedSuns stickers lol






    Also got the old clutch master out and ready for the new hinson motorsports master setup for a t56 throw out bearing.


    Wireing harness out it will be trimmed down and ran under the fenders and such. and the bay with everything removed. Next will be brake master cylinder and brake lines to go to get ready for paint and start on body work.
