JhnRX7's Weekend Track Toy Build

[JhnRX7]

Update!

....Nothing to update

The FD has been great since the completion of my winter build. It has given me zero problems and it is an absolute blast to drive on track (street not so much). I plan on just running it as is for a while, the only thing that needs attention is the front bumper needs to be replaced due to damage it has sustained over the past 6 or so years.

Unfortunately my summer track events got put on hold because I got sent down to Puerto Rico for work. I am on a 6 month assignment until the end of January. Although, for now I am not really missing the track too much....

The most beautiful beach I have ever been to


...It even had a tank!


The caves


The rainforrest



PR has it all! Next on my list is to find the drag races so I can see some crazy rotaries!

sooooo, hopefully you won't be upset knowing that your car may have an evil twin in the distant future.

i just started doing some track events this year in my S13 mainly for some seat time. hopefully, i'll have some good experience under my belt for when the rx-7 is ready. definitely caught the road racing bug.

keep comin' with those updates!

Ben

Glad to hear you caught the road racing bug... it really is addicting!

As long as you dont paint your car blue we will be ok haha

no worries, going white.

that sucks about your bumper, it looked fine in the pictures? you going to try to source another GTC?


and just curious, how do you like the 10" wheels up front? do you regret not going with the 18x9 +23? what size tires are you running? any fitment issues?

thanks
