I wish i had half the skills you do for body work.

you just need a lot of practice and patience :)

I need a practice car, i'm not sure i'd want to screw up something in my FD and end up having to take it to someone.

That sounds about right :)

Excellent work you're doing here, can't wait to see the finished product!!

because of the colder weather over here it's not easy to work and put some parts in primer
but today i finshed an other piece :)

looks good i posted the fortune car that im building in the interior section.....what color is the charcoal looking part of the car...love it matchs the carbon pieces

you mean the grey color ? its Lavagrey from Audi code LZ7L

Paint looks excellent.

So .... today i have started the rx7 again after re-sealing of the oil pan and putting a stock oil pressure regulator in it because i had +-5 bar of oil pressure before.
the turbo is not leaking any oil anymore so i am vervy happy !
BUT .... with the original pressure regulator i have an oil pressure of 8 bar !!!!!! :-(
could it be that the regulator is faulty ??? or what could cause this problem ?
here is picture of the orignal and the modified one that was in the engine before.

Thats attention to detail righ there..

You have some serious auto-body skills.

That shot of your car backing out of the garage is mint. Paint looks crazy! Alot of work in this car!
