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 :p 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 :wink:

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.

Geez your like 10 steps ahead of me here... :(

Freakin sick! I love FD's! What's the efini? I don't really know any of the rx7 models.

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 :nono: Haha, but rest assured, it was a very pretty penny as the thing is mint.. not bad for a 15 year old car.

Haha yes, it's a Canon Rebel XT, amazing camera. Dustin only knows about it because I let him know :p

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.

OMG she is super sexy, I'll give you one of my kidneys for it? Hows that sound.

Year and miles??

Year and miles??
92'
with 75xxx km which is approx 46.8 MI

what's sad is, most of the people are getting new(er) cars... I got a broke ass piece and it's not running (yet):banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

that car would go for about 17,999 around here. Nice find..

what's sad is, most of the people are getting new(er) cars...

Well sir, let me lay THAT theory to rest. I probably bought the oldest car anyone has on here. Gimme a second to upload the pics. :smokin:

How can you alone set my theory to rest... I sad, MOST, not all, people were getting new(er) cars...

I wouldn't mind pics though

Haha yes, it's a Canon Rebel XT, amazing camera. Dustin only knows about it because I let him know :p
More like because I badgered the hell out of you until you told me :).

And yes Brian I am always 10 steps ahead of you.

Not in all areas, let me remind you...

:naughty:

Mang how the fuck. Thats sweet shit, I hope to see some when I visit Kadena AFB in Japan when I go. Congrats on the badass FD.

Beautiful car. I'm sure that was a hard find. It was probably even harder to find one stock. Your a better man than I am because I wouldn't have the balls to molest and modify that car. If I had it it would stay stock. But to each his own. Just like my uncle had a 93 TT 6-speed Supra. Red, with black leather interior. Virgin, all stock, perfect condition just like it left the factory. Amazing car. I always wondered why he didn't modify it. I always said that if I had it I would mod the hell out of it. But now I feel the same why he does about these kind of cars. He sold it like 3 years ago for about $28k.

Love it love it, nothing else to say :wink:

N/A or boosted?

N/A or boosted?

It's twin sequential turbos; RX-7s never came n/a in stock form.

Awesome Car man. I love RX-7s. I would love to have one. That is probably the cleanest one I have ever seen. Dont see them much around here. How do you like the RHD? Is it a little wierd?

Guess I learn something new every day. Are you going to bring that to the meet?

Thanks. The RHD is damn awesome. I find it so easy to make my car move as if it were my own arms and legs now. Throwing it into 5th gear is steadier because it feels as if I'm locking it down into place, instead of pushing it away. Second gear is a little odd, but I'm getting a bit used to it. Paralell parking is a breeze.. I can go from 1st gear to reverse easily because you basically pull it back. It's kind of hard to explain, but you'd understand if you ever had a chance to sit in a RHD vehicle.

I've met sooooo many girls.. it's just so easy to strike a conversation. I love RHD :p It honestly felt very comfortable.. two minutes TOPS for me to get used to. The main thing for me was to get used to the driver's position on the road... I used to veer off to the left because of it.. but I'm used to it now and I can switch back and forth from LHD to RHD with no problems.

Guess I learn something new every day. Are you going to bring that to the meet?

Well.. let me rephrase that: The RX-7 *FD* never came in n/a in stock form. As for the meet, I'm afraid to say that I highly doubt I'll be making an appearance. I just don't trust myself with this new car yet to go on a long roadtrip.
