Here's a little update on my rx7...

The rollbars are made out of wires soldered together since i didnt have any excess rollbars
and the stock mazda Brake Discs were Replaced with Brembo out of the R34. Driver's Seat are from the R32 Passenger seat, but i will replace those if i find better ones. Removed half of the rear passenger seats, plan to add those fuel coolers n stuff... As for the engine i have no idea where to get a radiator with a fan... but will add on a BOV and some details later on, maybe try that vmount thing... Plan to open the hood but i dont know how and where to start. Headlights are almost done... just need to figure out how to do the lamps. Its going to be Either Black, Metallic Dark Green, or Mettalic Dark Blue or any other Dark color. As For the wheels, i might use the same ones but without the nismo decals.

As Of 02.04.04

Feedbacks/Comments and Help are Appreciated

Re: rebuild rx7 to Drift rx7

That's very nice, especially the engine ! The white rims suit very well.
I have the same problem with the headlights, i want some covered ones, but i don't know where to start.

This is looking really great man. paint them rims gold and put a huge
dish on them, and you got yourself a good beggining of the Apex D1
car. I really like the way you did the rear bumper, Can you share how
you went about doing it?
