Default New Ls1 Rx7

Hello, my name is aaron, I used to live in dayton ohio and I still visit occasionally but Im now in the military stationed in San Diego but deployed currently overseas in the gulf area. my car is a 94 rx7 R1 with an 02 z28 ls1 with 1 3/4 ss headers and 3 1/2 y-pipe, 90/90 fast and direct port nx. Im looking to pick up some parts before I head to Sicily for my next duty station so I can terrorize some exotics.

it is quite fun, 2800 lbs and 347 hp to the wheels is like having a go kart with a motorcycle engine, although the heat coming off the exhaust makes it more like an oven on wheels, lol.
