Just saying hello!

Hey guys/gals,

I just wanted to introduce myself over here in the 3rd gen section. I used to have my '87 TurboII and after some mishaps with it at the end of it's time with me I parted it out/sold it. I was out of the Rx-7 game for a good couple of months and wasn't happy. I ended up recently picking up my 3rd Rx-7. A '94 VR FD.

I absolutely love it and have fallen in love all over again with 7's. It's pretty stock and I bought it with a rebuild motor and 89k on the chassis. It had a downpipe & koyo radiator with it when I bought it.

I added the following when I picked it up:
-R1 front lip & rear wing
-Rear mudguards
-Stock FD wheels w/ new tires
-Alpine headunit
-A'pexi Power FC w/ EL commander

and just yesterday did the "DIY" '99 spec tail light conversion per rotaryaddicts.com! I am super happy with the car all around. I can't get over the looks/compliments! It drives so nice and feels great to be in another 7. I still miss my TurboII but can't believe I have an FD now!!!

I wasn't planning on DGRR this year but now I am pumped as can be and looking forward to it!

-Allen G.

Hey Allen,
That's an awesome looking FD you have now! It's almost as beautiful as that TII that you had. I'm glad to see you back in the rotary game.

Thanks man! It's been a while since I've talked to you. How have you been?!?!? The pictures make it look better. It's got a straight body but it needs paint pretty badly. lol. I'll be going with the VR color all fresh and new once I get that far. lol.
