Another summer, another car (Pictures inside)

Hey team I haven't been around for a while, and it's because of me being busy at work, girlfriend, and trying to get my damn car saftied. Oh yeah! I got a new car! Introducing the Efini RX-7 Type R. The suspension is as stiff as fuck.. cornering is unbelievable. The car is completely stock, even the tape player.. just the way I wanted it. I wanted to have a car that had a more personal meaning to me, plus if I bought a stock car, there would be less of a chance of it being bagged hard. I've already had girls throw their phone numbers at me, but it's not what I bought the car for I plan to dominate the autoX scene here and then move on to amateur racing as a hobby and later down the road into professional racing... but of course, that's me dreaming

Again, the car is stock when I bought it, BUT it did come with a few goodies. Early 90's racing gloves, JDM flare stick, Enkei spare rim, and a super-JDM anime cassette tape. Oh if you guys could only hear what's on the tape! I paid good money for this car, and it was with my own money. I just want to get it through with everyone that I did not ask my parents for help with this or anyone for that matter. This is my dream car and I've slaved at work with no days off in the last two and a half years for it and no one is going to stop me from enjoying this vehicle.

I had the car registered only three days ago and I waited until I was finished with that before I did anything to the car. So far, it has a metal Air Separation Tank (opposed to the stock plastic one that breaks and causes you to lose all of your coolant), FEED side steps, painted the calipers, cleaned and detailed the car, and finally my good luck charm that hangs from my tow hook. Future mods include an RE-Amemiya rear diffuser, K-Sport Coilovers, Apexi Power FC, Blitz BUR Spec Catback, and then I guess we'll see how the money flows Anyway, enjoy the pics and thanks for your time.

I am very jealous right now... I would love to have one of those...

**EDIT**
What kind of camera are you using to take these pictures? They turned out beautiful.

Yes, those are Saskatchewan plates The RHD cars all roam in the western half of Canada.. which kind of get annoying. All the RHD cars in my city are mainly Nissans (Skylines, 180sx's, Silvias, Fairlady Z's, etc.), so it's nice to be different.

That's classified info Haha, but rest assured, it was a very pretty penny as the thing is mint.. not bad for a 15 year old car.

Efini (pronounced: Awn-fin-nee) is just a secondary division of Mazda Japan. Which is strange, because Mazda doesn't have one in North America, but Honda, Toyota, and Nissan have secondary divisions here, but not in Japan.
