Default LS1 RX-7(FD) Complete!

I built this RX-7 for my friend, Ben. It is a '93 FD with a full LS1/T-56 drivetrain swap. I had intentions of building an exact replica but he is still modifying the car to his tastes, hence the wheels an spoilers:smile:
I am most proud of the engine bay, chassis and the tail-lights.
Things I tried to duplicate like the little oil dipstick, intake/exhaust, Greddy oil-catch can, and brake lines all make me happy:biggrin:
A a few videos of the car in action:
