1981 Rx-7 Build

LOVE IT!!!

I had one and made it go fast, but didnt know about suspension at the time. Needs more DUCK BILL lip... Flares look good too

One more shot for fun....



Hopefully by this weekend Ill have her lowered some more, going to order some adjustable bump stops for the rear.

[hi its me alec]

Wow that car looks great with the flares and addition to the front bumper.

Carry on.

This!

[lokirx706]

Get on it!

Premix is a life saver, same with adding and changing oil at short intervals.


If this engine ever goes out, you should throw in an S5 6 port

No doubt, Ill get to it here shortly, Ive got a lot of maintainance items to take care of before spring. She will hopefully be making her first trip to DGRR and I want her as reliable as possible.

As far as future engine swaps, anything is possible. Id like a bridgeported 12a, but housings are getting scarce. If I go to the trouble of a 13b Ill just MS, and drop a T2 in it. (My old FC was a 6 port turbo, I loved that!) Or you know, I might go to the dark side.... Hard to say...

To everyone that has posted so far, thanks for the love!

I have had this car for ten years, except for a short couple of months, and I have always been hesitant to modify it in anyway. I just loved it so much the way it was, but I had started to grow bored with it, part of the reason I traded it. This has been long overdue, and I am glad you guys like it so far!

i've always wanted an FC, but your FB is looking really cool, can't wait to see what the future brings

OMG, that front end!

Not yet, its kinda weird.... EVERY Rx-7 I have ever had, I have premixed. This is the first one Ive ever had, and I still havent gotten around to deleting the OMP and premixing lol And I have -no idea- why I havent done it yet lol

That is a very good looking car

[lokirx706]

Looks really aggressive! A bit more low would look good, but that's about it.

Do you add premix?

Making progress, still some tweaks and detail work to take care of. Also need to lower it some more, all in good time.

I've always been more of a fan of the FC, but this is a good looking FB. Props.

[Spawn613]

Very interesting. I've always liked the way these cars looked, but I've never been able to imagine how I'd build one. Can't wait to see where this goes.
