No exhaust pipe came with the mod (Mr Sir's RX7. IDK if its his old or new)



And the Rotary. I was surprised how much rougher sounding it is then a standard engine! I've never driven any kind of rotary, but I already like it...



Added 2 minutes later:

@stonedmonster I'm even unsure about working on my own RX7... I'm kinda scared of breaking the engine because I've never worked on one before... I don't think I can do internal stuff, but on my own, I'm gonna try to turbocharge it hopefully. The parts for the Impreza arrived, but I'm too tired to put them on. It's 5 am irl, and I need some sleep xD I'll talk to you guys tomarrow... Or rather, later today xDD

I love the rims on that RX-7! (Are they in the Stage1? I wanna put them on my Golf) I went to get a new trunk door since the old one was rotten to a point where rescue was impossible. I kinda like the "wannabe-kiddo" style so I "left" the stickers on there


# stonedmonster : aha i built a bridgeport 13b its probally why yours sounds rough

It's probably the rescripted one; I have the same mod. You can find it here on VS

Big update after 2 months: I managed to get all the rust and shit from the car and primered it. Some parts are reinforced with new metal, too. Now that thing is rust-free. I also installed the suspension (GReddy Type R + Brembo brakes) and made a rollcage from scratch.


The rollcage:

And the suspension:

Next step will be painting it and putting in the missing parts. I think it'll be dark green with a black hood. My dad says "The 70s are over, son" but I don't give a damn about it.

NEW GAR(HAR)AGE! Also, more fucking sponsors :D



Saving that spot for a certain someone ;)
Picked up new wheels for the 'Stang!

And a fuel safe :D

Then I went on ValoList, and I found an MR-2. It didn't have many pictures, but from the looks of it, it was white. It was cheap, and the steelies gave away that something is wrong with it. It had no engine, so I bought it! For 200$, it's cheap! Then, I saw what it really was...


It was a burnt out wreck. The previous owner crashed it, rolled it over and then it caught fire. The headlights wouldn't open, the bumpers were fallen, and the suspension is shit. So, I split the rear, and got one from a junkyard. It was yellow and it had tuned parts on it :D. Then, I primered the metallic parts and painted the plastic parts white.

Then I painted it a nice Midnight Purple.

Then I fitted the parts and removed the bitch ass bullshit suspension and worn out as fuck brakes. I also threw those rusty pieces of shit away.

This will be a showoff car. I'll install airbags on it, and I'll think if I'll tune it.

Well, i got the S14 primed, and got the tubing powdercoated coated purple for the lulz

i got windows and lights installed shortly after i got the car back as i planned on take it out for a loop, but that didn't work out.
Also, TOW STRAP!

*2 days later*
I hit up the local meet looking for parts, and some guy had his S14 there, he wrapped the front end around a pole, but the fenders and over fenders were good, and so was his RB wing, so i snagged everything for about a grand.


I went to another one in hopes of a good rear bumper. I saw a pretty mint euro spec rear bumper for cheap, the guy selling it was pretty nice, but sketchy. I bought it for 200 bucks with lights, so i raced back to the shop and put it on


Should be in the paint shop soon getting everything else primed and ready for paint.

@Facepalm: Do you already have a certain engine in your mind for the MR-2? Sweet Mustang, dude! Are you racing on Street, Track or Strip?

Track racing! Also, I have a certain engine, I'm thinking of either a V6 engine, or a much simpler, I4 engine. What do you think?

A V6 probably won't fit the tiny engine bay. I'd go either for an I4 or even a boxer engine.

Hmm, that sounds like a nice idea. I'll think of it. (Any way to make the one piece engines come full without having to buy the whole car first?)

(Nope, the only work when you buy the whole car unfortunately.) I know a guy who is scrapping cars. Maybe you can fetch a EJ25 or a EJ25STI for rather cheap. I got the 4A-GE from that dude.

@Gastroker: Realism can go to hell, right? XD

yea I took gastroker's advice and put in a v8 twin turbo drag racing offroading drifting pink slips showoff pussy momafoking asstearing pissfast engine. I fuk ladies all day long with it.

Okay, let's be serious. So I got an Inline 4 engine, and a new suspension system. No airbags.

Then I bought the rest of the body kit for the MR-2 along with side view mirrors.


I painted the whole car purple, and this is the final result.

Also...

soon...

I got the car done with paint, and i took it out, and had some trouble...
But first, some not so glamorous glamour shots




Then i got some new Grotti rims and took it out!

I had heard some ticking before that drift, and after it...some knocking, so as soon as i got to the pits it abruptly shut off.
I took the valve cover off, and i didn't see a problem with any of the cams or valve, so i took the head off, aand no pistons and no rods visible.

Back to the trailer and back to the garage.

2 more weeks have passed and I have found all the missing parts, exept the lights. Painted it, too


Found some lights on craigslist and they are on their way. As soon as they arrive here, I can put some plates on.

Hiya guys! I know it's been a while since my last post here but I was really busy my new build. I had bought a 1989 Honda Accord that needed lots of work done so I got busy. It now has brand new H&R Ultra Low Shocks/Springs, A turbo K20, and Enkei RPF1s on 215/35. Check it out-



So that's what Iv'e been up to for a while now. Looking for a new build in the meantime, so if you know anyone who is selling something nice hit me up please! By the way ops on the paint? Grey or purple...

Well, i got a rebuilt stage one motor with an OE turbo, not mad HP, but enough.


I had to take the tow strap off to fit the intercooler, so i'll have to find a new place for it.
But, after we got the front end back on, i took her around the track a few times, i got a little excited on the last lap, not only blowing a turbo, and spinning the car around, i clipped a barrier.



So, now for a different motor, some body work, and some tires.

Last one was a rod through the block, this one was everything out of the oil pan once we got it on the trailer, some scoring in the walls, i may to V8 with no boost, or i may go rotary with hella RPMS and hella boost, or flat-4 with mild boost, just for the luls.

The lights arrived! Now that thing is street legal and my new daily:


Also picked up some ADVAN SA3 rims
Cruising around:

@stonedmonster: I wanted to buy a rolling chassis. It's a 1997 BMW 318ti compact and costs 800$. Front end and the engine are missing but everything else is there.

So, I managed to turbo the FD... After alot of swearing, pouting, and begging, the engine sputtered back to life. I don't think I enjoy working on these things. Anyways, I also picked up some new coils and wheels. The wheels are Bee-R B5's. 17". Their pretty nice wheels, and they fit the car well I think. Also, still no exhaust, on the entire mod... Kinda bothersome. I decided to drive around without the air filter, or hood on the car. The turbo kit came with a trumpet, so it makes no real difference xD







Also, small update on the T-Type...

Nah man. Fred's specializes in engines and transmissions. I got the HRE's, but I have a plan for those... The old steelies with the frozen in spacers went with the Z33. I got the old rims from the FD. The Rotiform BRU's. They got tires on em... Kinda shredded in rear :P And I got the old coils from the FD, but they wouldn't fit in a 180. They were made just for the RX7... I'll sell ya the old wheels for, say, $500?
