Frankieeeee you know, I know, and everyone that are mr2 owners know that stock 2s are the best.

and oooo gun metal, that's...acceptable. Davis Approved.

Whoa there!

Renata your like the only other person that I know that likes the SA/FBs! Slammed and flared, aww yeah!

deucegirl03 · 01-27-2009, 04:14 PM

i don't know sh*t about them, but those who do trip on me for liking the older gens.
i just really love the low key look and those older models def are not flashy.
now i want to know more about rx-7's so i am gonna read up on it.
recommend any sites for me check out besides just random googling?

randomxzero · 01-27-2009, 04:18 PM

Fb's and FC's are sexy
just do the v8 swap

rotary some guy i know rebuilt his **** 5 times because it kept blowing up on him too quick.

deucegirl03 · 01-27-2009, 04:23 PM

well they aren't very good daily drivers (damn apex seals)
but they are excellent toys and LOVE boost (yay for less moving parts!)
i personally feel its almost a sacrilege to swap out a rotary and throw in a 350....

V8 or rotary, both are sick.

Bro's FC way back if I haven't shown you guys.... That's her daughter... oh she's all grown now (10 years old)...

By the way..during those days, I hear FD and FC owners hate guys that owns an RX7 that puts a v8 or LS1 motors

Yup.. 2nd gen.. 1998 10th year anniversary RX7 Turbo II... There was a big @$$ front mount intercooler there thats why the bumper was like that.

masagsxr · 01-27-2009, 04:36 PM

front pix... didn't get a chance to take a pix of the intercooler on it tho what a shame

Davis · 01-27-2009, 04:36 PM

Can't really blame them for hating. It's like when people put the engine in the frunk of the MR2.

randomxzero · 01-27-2009, 05:31 PM

Cjung · 01-27-2009, 05:36 PM

wow looks like the owner threw in everyhing

randomxzero · 01-27-2009, 06:03 PM

whoah i just read that after 1985 Aw11 were equipped with rear sway bars..
mine is an 85 so i might not have one..
is there anyway i would be able to put one on??

Davis · 01-27-2009, 06:05 PM

It depends, you might have tabs on both of the struts, tabs on one strut, or no tabs at all haha. This applies to 86'+. 85's had rear sways.

Mark_Dorman · 01-27-2009, 06:07 PM

Just go look under your car and see if you have one. If you don't I'm sure getting a hold of strut housings with the tabs would be easy

randomxzero · 01-27-2009, 06:10 PM

ya junkyard time i remember working under there but don't recall seeing it..
