Smile My Kazama RX-7

Hi Guys,

Some really beautiful cars on this forum! Thought i would share a pic or two of my RX-7. I've been working on it on and off for 7-8 years changing stuff. I'm kinda in the mood to sell it though, and go for an 05/06 carrera.

let me know what you think!

Harrison

I'm not even gonna touch the "soul of the rx-7" argument. It's a car.

and I won't mention the minimal weight difference over stock, or that of an all aluminum vs. cast iron block.

I will however, say that cost, reliability, and performance, weighed heavily on my decision. Based on the factors I listed nothing could come close to the v8. If you simply look at the area under the curve, the v8 has so much more useable power. It makes a great drive. As others on the internet have put it, "don't knock it until you go for a ride".

I'd definitely say I'm a car guy, not an import guy, and though I'm much more keen on imports (though things are starting to change) the LS series is a Great motor!

agree, nice but it almost sacrilegious putting an LS1 in it... but im sure it's scary fast!

Oh! Oh!. Thought I was on Rx7club for a minute.

If you've owned/maintained a 93-95 rx7 you'd know why the V8 conversion is a great idea.

Nice RX7. I know a few guys that have done LS1 swaps as well. Always a good result.

Your car is exceptionally beautiful, well maintained and appears to be quite a performer.
