I didnt spend $4k on it, but I did drop about $200 on that stuff, hahaha. I bought it back in June when I saw it on a friend's RX7.

I meant him not you. And now I can see it on that RX7. You are pimping hommie. You can chill out with the ricer crowds now too And man that stuff sure is blinding to the eyes!

Nice work, Mike! I hope that you'll make, after installing that fuel cell, a real diffuser under your car. I would do so if I just had less perfect car. Exhaust out from the middle, like in F360/430.

Hey good reading guys !!! stuck out in the north sea over in Bonny scotland, 106 mph winds but reading this has helped pass the time !!!!!

looks like you saved a couple of lbs there mike

At least the center console is still intact....

I assume this is turning into a track car...if so, find a nice big steel plate and weld it to the floor to cover that hole where the seats used to be. After that bolt in a nice 09438393893580584395085085435 million point roll-cage (essentially a wall) and you'll be good to go (around 100 lbs lighter too)

If it's returning to street duty...put some HUGE speakers where the kids used to sit. Or make it like a locking trunk area/beer cooler.

It is a track car, and no welding for floor pieces. Everything will be light gauge aluminum and removable. Yes the car is getting caged, I'm on the schedule for the local place that does 6 second drag cars and the occasional SCCA racer for the first week in April.

Oh yeah, and that center console is trash, I'll be taking it out soon. I'd be working on the car, but I promised I'd help assemble a 1993 RX7 (FD) with an LS1 swap on the weekends.

Way to go mike! Awesome pics - don't have too much fun with that RX7! BTW you still coming down for that bodywork in March?

MPD47

Uhh, no, to busy, not coming down Probably best PM me about shipping. The FD is entertaining, but there is a photo aparently being put up today of my flicking everyone off while wedging myself under the dash to help run the main harness for the LS1.

Guns951

Haha, you flippin' the bird? NO WAY...I'll shoot you a PM.

Darwantae951

Mike, you should use that garage that the RX-7 is in...

Nah, I had to move a TON of stuff to get that the way it is, and none of my tools are there. It's a family member's house I take care of in the winter.

Is that the front hit FD from another thread?

MPD47

If by front hit you mean we had to replace the radiator core, (which was done today) yes.
