It was a leaky coilover shock they were 800$ not worth fixing got to the point where my alignment was being effected and I just bought new tires with 5km on so far

Sorry I totally misread your post.

I think he means the set was $800. Like Ebay/Megan/bullshit

Time for some Ohlins.

then you fix the ONE thats wrecked... and get an alignment for 100$
:suspicious:

maybe its better that you leave your car stock
:concentrate:

Reinstalled the turbo/downpipe in the RC, what a clusterfuck that is. I spent a stupid amount of time trying to chip off a piece of crusty old vac line that had pretty much turned to plastic.

Also installed the replacement rad in the RX7, the silly fan shroud is a bit of a pain to wiggle in there but I think I've got the hang of where it gets hung up now.

Taking my advice about ohlins eh ;)

bc but yeah



notn worth to fix the wrecked one.. and FUCK turns out I got a bent knuckle which also damaged the coilover.. hence the BAD alignment... fuck I just ordered one from USA when the shop calls me that they found one local for 150.... I paid 30$ less btu gotta wait til friday..

Get the BC's rebuilt and you'll be a lot further ahead than running stock shocks.

BR series coils have a $100 shock replacement policy...

And replacement parts are readily available for all their other Coils as well. I see no reason not to repair them...

Cleaned and polished up the exhaust :woot2:

Burped the coolant in the FC after the rad replacement, man what a messy job that is. Also bled the clutch and aired up the tires, then took it for a drive down some twisty roads and I've got to say, FC's are very fun cars. Even though this one is a fairly rough NA one (albeit with new shocks and springs) it's a blast to drive.

Recently been re-assembling my engine, today I stuck the oil pan on, along with some water lines and a big ass bracket for the alternator. Thing is, I painted the bracket the same colour as the block and need some opinions on whether I should keep it that way or paint it black. Even one or two comments would help. I'm kinda torn between the choices, lol.

what did you do in terms of steering angle mods?
I see a 20mm? extended lca for camber
tension rods, probably with heim joints for caster

Switched back to summer wheels and tires.

Put the summer's back on. So much nicer to drive.

I would keep it matching, unless you want to draw attention to the big alt bracket.

I'm going to respectfully disagree.

Stock > BC/Megan Racing/Made in China/Taiwan garbage. And who is going to repair them locally? Likely nobody. They have to be shipped out and what you get is the same garbage again.

Hit 50k, hopefully will drive it for another 50k or so before upgrading. Gonna be a while seeing as i only drive maybe 5-7k a year

^ wow very low kms for a 07

let me know when you sell it, i hope it's white :ilied:

I'm going to disagree with you since you seem to assume everything made in China is the same...

It's 25mm, and extended tension rod and rack spacers.

Winters OFF.....all seasons ON! ...was a great day to do them!
