Hey everyone i have been checking out the forum for a while now, i just recently changed my name. I never posted a thread introducing myself though. So i figured i should start over adn get to know everyone. I used to own a 1987 mazda rx7 but i sold it because well i wanted some back seats and soemthing a little bit nicer. The rx7 had about 350rwhp so i plan to make the SC fast also, it will just take some time. Anyway i bought the SC in april and have had alot of fun with it since then. Its a 1992, i bought it for $3100 and it had 129k on it when i got it. It had some hail damage when i bought it but since then it has been fixed and repainted. Here are some pics of when i bought it.

Since i bought the car i have done alot and i have many more plans for the car, since the car has such bad body damage(hail and the passenger rear 1/4 panel was wrecked) the 1/4 panel was "fixed" but it was a macco job and looked like macco just throwed bondo all over the car. So i bought a used door and found a good body shop to fix the 1/4 panel. I also bought a vertex replica kit for the car while it was getting fixed and repainted. In addition to that i bought Tein basic coilovers and some Volk Te37s.
Here are some progress pics.

Here is how it looked about a week ago, since then the headlight is fixed so it fits right, it is about an inch lower in the rear and i put a 97+ grill on it.
