My LSx FD Build.
I needed a forum to host this build on...I dont go on rx7 forums that much so you guys get to see the on going process 
1....when i first got her. wasn't feeling the color, had a TON of sparkle in it, which you cant see in the pictures...............looked like a stripper lol
came across this 93' RX7 with only 65k miles, clean title, and a few mods. nothing worth really keeping tho =[
interior was the first thing to get redone. since I was going to be in the car, i dont like the feeling of stuff falling apart on me lol...I had all the weak looking panels redone in Di-Noc carbon, and had my boy Louis redo all the panels in black Alcantara with Red Stitching.
decided to get a whole repaint from the ground up and just rebuild everything from there...car was just so damn old, it needed a makeover. didnt like all the creeking and fading that built up the past 16yrs...
the engine...rebuilding the whole thing. port/polish/ yada yada...should be pushing around 420 rhwp when its all said and done.
after everything was pulled out...headed out to one of my buddys for paint.
I didn't see a point of keeping all the useless back panels. always liked the look of a clean gut job. so that's the route i went.
more work on the car...more preping for paint.
still more to come!!!

Yay...parts...Had to get these when i layed my eyes on them. 3pc 16" WEDS rims...very old school. also full Autopower Roll cage, custom coated in Candy Rapsberry by my boy Mike @ Youngunz
after months of preping car and taking apart the car. it was finally sprayed. Went with a Pastel Grey color...
Got the RE Amemiya 6-pc bodykit test fitted and painted...doesn't look to bad!
