I'll self-nominate my mostly stock but well restored '89 RX-7 Turbo Coupe. With the exception of paint work and an "ABS delete" mod (done to deal with a leaky ABS pump), all work was done by yours truly.

Some basic car info, major restoration history & mod list:

VIN # JM1FC3321K0701200, Build date: 01/89
Purchased used in May '99, I'm the 3rd owner. Currently has almost 135K miles on body; 45K miles on rebuilt engine. (Hayes Rotary reman w/new housings).

- Painted in 2001 by Perfect Bodies Auto Collision, Longbranch, NJ
- Restored leather seats in 2005
- Installed new Mazda engine wiring harnesses, 2008 (BTW - this is the BEST investment you could ever make in a 20 Y.O. RX7!)

Engine/Drivetrain Mods:
- RP Downpipe (pre-cat delete) to stock main cat, Borla SS cat-back dual exhaust
- RP heavy duty clutch
- Corksport SS oil cooler lines
- MazdaTrix short throw shifter

Suspension/Brakes:
- Racing Beat springs
- KYB AGX 4 way front/8 way rear adjustable struts
