Motor

Rebuilt the 2.2T with all new gaskets down to the heads. (No bottom end work needed) added the front mount intercooler, manual boost controller, Megan Racing downpipe, with secondary wideband O2 sensor with data log. Cleaned up the turbo, and made everything look pretty!

Body

Had wild hail damage when we got our hands on her, so that's why she looks so patchy

Paint

Engine bay and door jams all went jet black. Painted in a good friends spray bay ourselves

Grill

Got bored. Cut it up

Grill

Painted it green with black mesh to match the theme. (See finished picture)

Paint

It got the WW2 Army Green, with just enough gloss to be pretty

Hood

Cut out the factory scoop due to major hail damage and did the same mesh style as the grill to match

Wheels

Ended up finding stock Legacy Wheels similar to Colin McRaes WRC rims. Painted back to match (see finished)

Finished

Added the Hella 500 Black Magic lights for some nighttime rally's! They were awesome to drive with!

Finished rear

Straight pipe tip because it looks evil, and shot 3 foot flames if you really wanted too. Blacked out the lights to keep the theme all the way around. And painted the little wing black to match!

Miss this thing

She was one of my absolute favorite beasts to beat on!

awesome

I'm super confused. The engine is out.. now's the perfect time to install an LS1!

You should see how many times I've heard that about my RX7...but I love the rotaries and flat 4's too much to go V8!

My rx7 was a blast and I'd love to have one again but once the triangles break, in goes my 408
