No More Cav, RX-7 Time
Friday, March 30, 2007 9:57 AM
About two months ago I got into an accident with my cav...and decided I no longer wanted to dump more and more money into it..After getting rid of it I found myself a new car, and have now had it for about a month and a half..finally getting around to posting it up here...

Went to a cruise to alki beach with a few friends, comment on the car or photography. The in motion pictures are from my buddy with the miata, the stills are from me. The red cav is a member here.

The new car looks nice. But I still think the cavalier looks better then the rest in the picture.

thats my fav style for the RX7 so it gets TWO thumbs up from me... the only thing i dont like is the way the exhaust looks, are they angled up? i think they'd look better str8 on..

headlights are like because i was messing with the switch inside. They aren't broken or anything, just out of boredom. Exhaust is slightly angled, dual apex n1's. As for the cav better then the rest, to all their own. My cav was 100000x nicer then his, and he still likes the rx-7 better.

yes sir, it is a GTUs... I highly doubt many here will understand/appreciate this model of the rx-7.

Angled exhaust FTW.
RX7 FTW.
Sexy Pictures FTW.
JDM Half opened Headlights FTW.

I approve !

Looks good Nick, I've always liked that body style of RX7 better than the newer style. What is different about the GTUs than the other models? Power output? or just interior goodies?

love the rx-7
i prefer the third gen. rx-7s but any will do. Didn't know you can stop the headlights halfway up, kinda makes it look stoned Oh yea, aren't the exhaust pipes angled because there is not enough room or something.???....? or is it a JDM thing?

nice group of cars

rx-7s are nice but I hope you understand that car needs a lot of maintenence. Start it everyday, keep an eye on everything. There a load of fun but rotarys need tender love and care to keep em running.

What year is it? I may have a shop service manual you may be interested in.

It's an 89, I know all about them trust me..been around them all my life, just never owned one until now. As far as mods go:

NEW 13b not rebuilt
3mm Apex Seals
Mild Street port
5+6th Ports Wired
TB Modded
Racing Beat Dual Header
Apex N1 Dual Exhast
HKS Intake w/ Cold Air Box
FD(3rd Gen) Fuel Pump
FD(3rd Gen) Alternator
Stance Coilovers
OMP Is Removed, and I run Premix.

It's not bad, as rich as it is right now on its current tune, im running high 14's all motor, with little traction 1st, and part of second.

Its getting a full j-spec S5 turbo setup, and then it will be fun.
