I'm sorry this is my first post, but I've been a browser on the forum for quite a while, and thought it'd be a great place to advertise this as it's pretty stance focussed, but more than drift capable!
The car is a manual 1990 RX7 TII (turbo) cabriolet with 91K on the clock. MOT'd till March 2012 and taxed until Sept 2011. The car is used daily though, so mileage increasing all the time. Proves how reliable a rotary can be though!
Spec:
R-magic ECU (caters for 0.9 bar boost, filter, exhaust, FMIC)
HKS mushroom air filter
2.5 JDM catless downpipe, decatted straight through exhaust to some subtle backboxes - sounds quite interesting for a rotary, very quiet on idle and a nice purr, but sounds great when you come onto boost.
Cusco front and feed rear coilovers (feeds have adjustable damping)
Rolled and pulled rear arches
Rolled and badly pulled front arches
Luisi leather mildly dished steering wheel
Big proper+ gear knob
Almost mint leather seats - even the drivers bolster is very good
Tinted rear lights, front and side repeaters
No front ARB (makes car less snappy, but included)
TII front lip, satin black (not standard on 'vert)
Electric mirrors and roof
Boost, water and oil temp gauges (car has good oil pressure gauge as standard, the others suck)
Panasonic headunit
Airpump disconnected
Dual alternator belt pulley (needed for safety if airpump disconnected/removed)
Magnecor KV85 HT leads
Welded diff
Other good points:
Not rusty - we had to do a reasonable amount of welding to get her on the road originally, now nice and solid
Rebuild engine at 73K - receipts etc to show, and in the last year she's not flooded once, unlike most rotaries
LOTS of history
The roof can be run as a targa, which is much nicer for motorway cruising. The wind deflector built into the 'parcel shelf' is the best thing ever!
Bad:
Drivers door has a big dent in, but I have an imperfect replacement that I was going to restore over summer. Still owed money for this as it happened when I lent the car to a friend
Paint peeled on the edges of the front arches from rubbing/rolling, no rust though
The rear half of the roof is shagged, leaks and needs replacing, but I figured it could wait till after the summer as I drive it with the roof down most of the time!
Comes with:
Very lightened flywheel - these retail for lots normally!
3" catback exhaust - with the decat this is VERY loud, hence not running it atm.
Spare passenger cloth seat (I have it fitted atm, but I'm keeping the bucket seat, so you can have both leather seats too)
Any interior trim that isn't fitted
Blitz MFCS - plug and play multifuel computer system that fits in next to the standard ECU and allows you to adjust fuelling. Best run with wideband monitoring or similar.
Spare red front and rear bumpers and TII sideskirts. The vert doesn't come with sideskirts from factory.
Goodridge braided brake lines
Equally, but different damaged replacement door.
Standard ARB
New standard front and rear brake pads
Here is my photobucket album:
The switches in the centre console are for the headlights, due to the switch not working properly - although I have a spare, untried one of these too!
I can sort some deals out here on price depending on what people want:
EVERTHING for £3000
Bottom price (£2000) on original 15" 'vert BBS's (illegal tyres atm, will be changed) and with leather seats, but without:
Banded steels
Any of above mentioned extra's (except the replacement, damaged door)
Luisi steering wheel
Proper+ gear knob
OFFERS or interesting swaps/part ex's WELCOME.
Or various prices inbetween depending on what people want - I have Mitsubishi Starion wheels, and a pair or panasports I could also do deals on. This is running a certified 222bhp at 6900rpm, with potential for a lot more very easily.
Atm she looks like this: (note the one of four 'Lowlife' stickers down the windscreen, due to me being one of the 4 exclusive members see http://www.lowlifeuk.com )
New bonnet fitted. Small ding in the front and some tiny stone chips, but otherwise great - the aluminium ones are very hard to get hold of! Photo is just to show the colour contrast and the ding!
