Hey guys... been a member on Rx-7club for a while (user name Prôdigy2nd)

found my way over here....


it seems a lot quieter, and more respectful, so many people on the other forum like waving their e-penis around, so a nice quiet forum like this is awesome


I was trolling Rx7 for a while... for a long while before I even owned any type of rotary powered vehicle... all I knew is that I really wanted too (even with all the headaches involved)

I just recently picked up a JDM FD, for a very very good price...


As soon as I can get some more pictures I will post them... but the worst part is... its at my parents house... some 750kms away (450 miles for the Yankees)


Its a 1992 JDM VR R1, its in good shape... almost bone stock (catback, turbo timer)


plans? Apexi Power FC (next week I believe) local used sale, then apexi intakes, greddy JDM down pipe (need the JDm because it has a small dent it for the steering column to clear it...

and some rims/tires in the next year sometime...

I am by no means rich, nor have rich parents, so like many of us, its by my own blood sweat and tears that i'm paying for the car, and modding it... I plan to do as much by myself as possible... as I love to learn new things, and complete a new challenge....

I will post some pictures up later on this evening or week... depending on when I can find them...

one part of the sticker is covering a blemish in the paint... something of the sort.. its only one piece, so I left that one on, took the rest off.. she will need a repaint, and good repaint in the next few years, but overall I'm happy with her....

she is a good place to start from

Already got a bunch of parts for her.... Need to install, some I'm going to wait till I get a find that coolant leak, and till I get to know her better, I want to learn how she drives before I throw on a bunch of power mods, but for that I need the snow to leave and the summer to come....

As far as areo goes I've got all my parts ordered, it will be kept simple, kept stock looking, I don't mind some of the kits out there, but I love stock FD lines, just got a few things that should orchostrate well with the body...

But it does still need some rims and a drop, not a big drop, a slight drop, roads around here are so shitty you need to have one of the red neck jacked up trucks to get around

over and out
