Your Work wheels are the best looking wheel possible for an RX7. The car looks great.

The car looks INCREDIBLE. It's the nicest looking swap in this generation car that I have seen.

You should be very proud of your work here Sean.

Thanks again Steve,it means a lot man. This damn car has been a long drawn out project(rotary builds and LS swap), it was always on the back burner for the usual; marriage, birth of my children, raising the kids, going to Iraq in 2008, buying a home, ect. It collected much dust

THANK YOU for your great tuning!

That is a great looking FC
Thanks bud, I think so too

Thanks! Yeah the FC models vary from 2600 to 2850lbs, verts up to 3k. Mine is the 2850LB turbo model but she is pretty bare bones..really all that is left to remove is the interior but I want it to stay in.

The dyno was a Dynocom1800

That is one clean FC!
very very nice.
Thank you!!
