Fast and Furious RX 7
Hey, I was just wondering if anyone could email me the full modifications : bodykits, paintjobs, interior designs and engine work on the 1993 Mazda RX 7 that appeared in the Fast and The Furious. the one that Dom drove. I've been trying to search for it but can't find anything, it would be much appreciated.
my email should be listed when you send me a msg about it, thank you.

Trust me man, the F&F RX-7 *isn't* a 10 second car. Its quick, but only pulled a 12.3 or so iirc. Mostly just bodykit. and thats a veilside kit, you can go to thier site and find it.

The body kit is by vielside other than that I belive the car was basicly stock. So it was all show and little go.

Better than an e-mail, there's a new book from MBI called The Cars of The Fast and the Furious, by Eddie Paul, that covers quite a few of the cars from both F&F movies and gives a lot of detail about their construction. Domenic's FD3S RX-7 is covered pretty well in the book. If you like the cars of both F&F movies, the book is a must-have, and it's relatively cheap at $20. Check your local bookstore, B&N, or Amazon.
"Dom's" RX-7 has a Veilside Combat II body kit and Veilside Andrew racing wheels. The graphics are by Modern Image. If you need a starting point for building a replica, Aoshima has the RX-7 Veilside Combat II, and Fujimi sells the Veilside wheels as an accessory pack. Or you can wait till the end of the year, when AMT/Ertl is said to be releasing an all-new 1/25 scale plastic kit of the Toretto RX-7...!
Best regards,

Why?
Why would you want to make a car look like someone else's?
Are you planning on doing this work your self? If you are, then put a little more time into it to planing it. If you're not doing the work, then shoot, I guess you've got more time to plan something original then don't you?
If you do your car like F&F, everyone's going to think of that movie - not you - every time they see the car; and that includes cops dude.
Do it an original way, and start with the engine if you expect any respect for your efforts. But don't follow a movie!

uhhh,you see the problem is that the Rx-7 is a movie car,all it has to do is look good on set,it doesn't have to be fast,it was all computer graphics anyways.I believe it just has a body kit,exhaust,and some gauges,nothing special.I wouldn't want my car associated with anything F&F,if you want to do so,be prepared to be laughed at by every real car enthusiast,I don't know if your ready for a life time of ridicule.I'll give you my opinon,the F&F Rx-7 is a waste of a good car,their is more to a car then looks and exhaust,and that is all the car has going.Do some homework and make a real car,not a movie car.Movie cars just have to look good,performance is not an issue.If you want a show car,ride around with a copy car,and join the morons,do it.If you want a fun fast car,and enjoy the true feeling of the Rx-7,then do your homework and build the car up yourself.
