That looks really good. Are you going to paint it, or leave it black? Either way, it still looks really good. I can't wait to see it on the chassis. Good job, man.

miniDRIFTER 12-11-2003 07:49 PM

Thank you, I will prob. paint it red or white, seeing that those rims would look good with the red or white paint. Next mod is hopefully intercooler pipes or a new exhaust, or maybe even a wing. BTW I made that intercooler with a business card lol:

miniDRIFTER 12-14-2003 01:25 PM

Yea, sorry.. my trial period ended. I'll have the pics back up in 5 min.

EDIT: Here is an update on the exhaust. Its shiny and now has a pipe. I also put vinyls and a wing (for fun)

sagelwwa 12-17-2003 12:44 PM

My Supra would look really sweet beside Boost's RX-7, as his would beside my Supra. They are both almost the same color!

BTW Very Nice RX-7 I'd like to get that body, what is it? Brand, etc.?

LP_Reanimator 12-17-2003 12:52 PM

I should figure out a way to put an intercooler on my RSX. That would be sweet. I'm going to figure out a way to do that.

sagelwwa 12-17-2003 12:54 PM

Haha, yeah I'd like to see that, and slap a Greddy logo on there, they make a real RSX turbo kit.

yo the R in GReddy is capitalized

charliebrown 12-17-2003 06:26 PM

Hey minidrifter, where did you get that body and how did you install it on the chassis? I'm very interested in this project!

I know, but I didn't think it really mattered. They are my favorite tuning company by the way. I have a custom GReddy tach windshield banner on my Supra. Anyway, "TRUST" in me, "GReddy" is my favorite company and my Supra has been "GRacer"ed with GReddy products. Haha, I hear ya tho. Peace.

apex_sideway 12-20-2003 11:04 PM

I also would like to know where you got the Rx7 body. I'm ordering a kit from tamiya . . . will the shell fit the Skyline Chassis?

Dramier 12-21-2003 10:11 PM

You guys are in South Carolina? You don't ever happen to goto Aiken or Columbia do you? Perhaps you know of Team Rousche (sp?)

Maybe you're familiar with CSRA Motorsports forum? The reason I ask is we've got a couple of cars here in Augusta, GA that run around.. Subaru WRX, Ford Cobra, 300ZX Turbo, Rx7 TT, Camaro Z28, Honda S2000, etc.. If you guys ever want to get togethor with the xmods and real cars, msg me and we'll set something up. Would be awesome to have an Xmod shootout.

There's even a track here in Augusta for racing nitro off-road trucks and on-road cars like Xmods, RS4's etc.

Nice Rx7 Xmod. We've done some body swaps, but nothing as customized as that. You can see ours over in my thread: WIP: Skyline and PT Cruiser.

Let me know if you want to meet up sometime.

BoostCrzy 12-26-2004 01:11 AM

Someone on EBay is selling FC bodies. I didn't see the body this guy was making, was it an FD? BTW, I own a 1990 GXL :D
