Thread: My RX7 FD3S Re-Amemiya Twin Turbo Build

hey guys...heres the pics from today...the car has its first layer of color on it to see any imperfections or waves in the paint

now they're sanding it all down again after fixing any imperfections

but the color looks freaking beautiful!!!

Also they mounted the Canards on the URAS bumper, which looks fucking insane!!!

now just gota paint the bottom lip and the canards gloss black (which will later be wrapped in carbon)

next layer of color will go on monday!!!

Looks great man, congrats on almost being done! What kind of wheels will you be running?

thanks man!

i'll be running a set of 18" ISS Forged wheels

not sure what design yet...but whatever it is, it'll be from them

alright guys

heres the update for today

i finally got to push the now semi color matching car together with a semi-decently sized tire

and even this semi-put together car...looking fucking insane!!!!! and the front bumper looks out of this world amazing! much better than i thought it would!!

the wheel i put on the rear is cheapy chinese POS Vossen wheel that i refuse to allowed to be seen on my car, i really can't stand having chinese cheapy knock off wheels on my car :wall bash:

but either way, its a 20x10.5 +30 with a 285/30/20 tire, i purposely used an oversized diameter wheel so i could make sure there wouldn't be any rubbing issues when the suspension travels

the wheel setup i'll be building for it at ISS Forged will be an 18x12 or 18x12.5 so you can kind of get an idea of what the difference in sizing will be

heres the pics

Any idea which ISS design you'll choose? These would look pretty good I think...

GT Wheels

i spoke to Janoy over there yesterday... and he's making me a really special set of wheels

thats why i love those guys...they're all tuners at heart with their own manufacturing facility that they gave me a tour of, not just some douches sitting in an office making phone calls and collecting your money!

The car is looking great! Definitely will be one of the nicest FD's down here.
