rebuild rx7 to Drift rx7

[digitalbanzai]

Looks like a fun project

might want to consider straight exhaust piping to the muffler. better flow, more power&torque! drift cars usually have about a 2.5''-3.5'' exhaust piping from the turbo back to the muffler.

you went about doing it?

Hehe... I dunno where to get me some rims...
I used the Apexi D1 Rx7pics as a reference i extended the rear bumpers wheel well portion downwards by 3mm i think, but maintained the stock height of the rear bumper's lip. also shaved that stock diffuser part under the bumper, I'll try to get pics after i get my pc up & running again... i'm using the school's pc's ryt now

I resoldered the rollbars and added a center part then painted it black. Made a BOV, i'm looking for a nice decent size turbo altho the 34's turbo's are too large that i might just make one, i might be able to pull off a scratch built radiator and fan. Body might be painted this week or the next... really short on cash after buying an esc for my r/c.

tnx guys
