October ROTM Nominations - SA/FB VS. FC

[P71]

This is the Official nomination thread for the October ROTM. October is a little experiment and is for BOTH SA/FB and FC RX-7's, any engine allowed. Basically I'm trying to get five of each and have a "showdown" if you will. If this format works we'll have a few more, if not it's a fun month. Due to forum software limitations only the first 10 can be accepted! (I think, that may change)

Nominate away!

[Onlyonthurs]

[Phoenix7]

[djmtsu]

can i nominate my FB ?

You just did, now post up a pic.

I nominate myself again. Bound to get some votes eventually. Plus, Kevin already one best FC!!

I wanna nominate both of my fc's.....but I have no good shots of them:(

[Rogue_Wulff]

I wasn't gonna nominate my car, as I just didn't think it was right. But, since everyone else is doing it, I'll post a pic, and see if anyone wants to "Officially" nominate it.
In it's "normal" driving mode.

[P71]

Loving the CSP FB! Good entries so far, liking the fresh faces.

[ROTORX7Holly]

Some nice FBs there. And your FC to DJ :)

[Phoenix7]

DJ, go take some other pics though, those don't do your car justice.

Thanks man. I won the local region season champonship last year with it, and I am still on track to repeat for this year.
Not bad for a car that I have about $1500 total investment to date....:coolgleamA:

my car is not perfect or very clean but i love it so i put it up!
edit:i wish i had the front rims on it would make the picture 10 times better.

[Phoenix7]

oooh black vs. white

[Phoenix7]

Why not??? My wife's car: I call it our road warrior - 210,000 miles on original motor and still hauls ass every single day!

We have a MAzdaspeed lip that just needs paint, maybe in the winter. I'm contemplating not using it though our roads suck and I'd hate to damage it!!

[firzen]

Too many good cars. I will nominate my own when up against easier competition ;)

[Nutsid]

Marcello is getting my vote. Before he painted his LE wheels, it was my FB's twin, only in a bit better shape. :lol:

[Whizbang]

well my red car isnt that special. and the FB is that running... soooo

holy crap idea, how about a month for people with "project" (non running) cars?

[Onlyonthurs]

thanks mang! and don't wory mine is not perfect either...i use it daily so it has some rough edges too lol

[P71]

A "Work-In-Progress" month could be fun, but it would make for a bad pic for the calender :(

[Whizbang]

people can take artsy action pictures of there cars on jackstands. especially if you can get that blur effect.

[Rogue_Wulff]

thanks mang! and don't wory mine is not perfect either...i use it daily so it has some rough edges too lol
Be that as it may, you still have a nice car.
There have been many nice cars posted, both in the FB and FC dept.

[BLK FC3S]

I'll try again if I am able too. Let me know if I need to post pictures again.

[P71]

Yep, pictures up. I'm probably going to close nominations and open voting tomorrow.

[Phoenix7]

If you do I won't know who to vote for!
the built FB or the 3-rotor FC!!!??

[Onlyonthurs]

Yep, pictures up. I'm probably going to close nominations and open voting tomorrow.

already?!?!? how long is the usual time to post up nominations?

[P71]

About a week or when nominations stagnate. We have a pretty good crop here and I normally give a warning for anybody who wants to slide in at the last hour.

[khronus79]

I was about to nominate LWNSLW but he beat me to it.

[ROTORX7Holly]

A "Work-In-Progress" month could be fun, but it would make for a bad pic for the calender :(

Not really, we are enthusiast of the Rotary, even a work in progress. I think it would be great.

Holly

[BLK FC3S]

ok, pictures again.

Isn't that the rustoleum paint job? You need to do that thread over here, my friend.

[lwnslw]

YES... the suspension and the top half of the car was painted by "Rattle Can" ..

[lwnslw]

Per $100T2 comment, I have included this link so I wouldn't have to copy all the pictures here...
It has been a 2 year process and LOTS of hours to complete but it was fun AND frustrating... Of course it doesn't look as nice now because of the road trips/ meets and she wasn't in the garage till after she got tuned but I will probably start touching it up one section at a time since I get bored when I have nothing to do AND she sleeps indoors now... LOL LOL
At the moment, I have taken her apart to go back to FI since my tuner says he can get me another 70 to 80 HP by doing so.... I already got use to the power (383HP to the wheels) so I need more.... hoping to get 450HP to the wheels...
