Wow... Ive always been a fan of RX7's... even though Im too tall to enjoy one haha.

This build is just awesome. Im not into the drifting scene. But the work that you put into this car is great! Love it! Cant wait to see it finished up.

Im around 6'4 - 6'5. I have issues with headroom in them, width, and getting my knees comfy under the wheel when working the clutch haha.

I could do it...its just not comfortable enough for me for every day use.

Cant wait to see updates on this!

any updates?
I'd like to see more interior shots... I like how clean the white paint looks.
This reminds me of my Formula SAE days...

A lot of great fab work here, interested in seeing the rest come together.
