Cym Re-Build Thread

So I assume most of you know that I wrecked my car. Or as some of you call it "Apon'd Out."


Well after months of searching for a rhd shell or roller, I've finally found one!

I'll be starting with the "Re-build" next weekend and I'll have a full thread dedicated to my part out. Both cars are RHD so keep that in mind when asking for parts. PM me if you want anything during the whole process. This will take me the rest of summer and all of winter to do so time to save up for the parts you want! lol

Anyway for right now I'll just post some before and after "apon outing" pics and pics of the roller.

STAY TUNED FOR BUILD PICS!

Which makes perfect sense. They are sacrificing safety either way. lol

I have the same lip on order... sitting a friends house in Ontario right now...


I'm sad that the car got totaled.. was a fine example of RHD import..

I'm excited to see this once its all done though... should be a good project...

no one wanted to believe me when I said that car was wrecked. Looks like they finally figured it out

Good to see you went the way of another roller. RHD FD's are like twigs up here, they're everywhere and usually broken! You can get one cheap!

Looks like a nice parts list, hope it comes together well for you

Wow, somone was just asking me about the yellow RHD rx7 that rolled around. I heard it got wrecked but was fixed. I guess not, are you still going to try and fix the yellow one or just get a new one all together?
