Just to remind you how nice your car is

I still think you should paint the wheels!! ... well and the car ... but those wheels in dark Gunmetal would look the tits!.

A thought, you've got coilovers haven't you? .. have you thought about adding some camber, dropping down a bit and sticking on some spacers

How about dishing out advice on your own car and leaving one of the few remaining 'bigpower' car drivers alone?

Bronze is cool. OE+ 'stance' is cool..............black FD3's are fookin' cool. Tell you what Garteh, leave it exactly as it is and let me pay for it in installments

Can't deny this is a beautiful car. I never personally been a fan of RX7's but I can't argue the fact that it's a nice car. Well done mate:thumbs:

Ha ha ha you boys but yep I suppose its true I am part of the elite 'still have the car when you joined Bigpower' bunch

Ben, I just don't think dark colours go well with black and hence I love the bronze or golds. Oh and I don't really want to go any lower on the car, the VMount makes it lower at the front. Remember when I first got it, was so low I could barely get my foot underneath the bumper......mind you it did look cool

But maybe if when I get it resprayed (one day) I should have it done in audi glacier white...

I do like RX7s in white....

I like the arches on the front and rear on these cars (Feed), still looks stock rather than the massive wide arch kit on the Re-Amemiya ones.

Thanks for the kind comments though. Some things have been removed to help fit the bits and tidy up the engine bay:

Before anyone says, that is kitchen roll in the engine bay !!!!

Right, THE most unexciting update to my thread.....

Blanking plates for the air pump removal are in place:

Well as you can see the second one isn't as I need some thick washers

Bit there was a big air control valve connected to this that has now been removed so there is some wiring and piping to tidy up also.

See, told you it was exciting stuff

Dude for that plate, remove the long studs with some mole grips. They unscrew. Then get some m6 screws to attach it on
