Greetings from soggy Canada
 
Hey all, I'm acquiring a 74 RX4 wagon shortly, been doing the "car thing" for a a decade now and have built many cars before, but wanted to get into classics. I've owned an S4 rx7 long ago and really liked the way the 13b drove so it should be interesting to run the rx4 with the carb. It's got a racing beat manifold and weber carbs.. needless to say I'm excited.
Anybody know where I can source some proper bumpers for this thing? The north american ones look like a bag of dicks? New Zealand maybe?

Personally I import cars and parts from Japan as a hobby business, used to be in IT and am now an electrician's apprentice. My history with rotaries is minimal, however I have owned one, and have always wanted to try again..For entertainment purposes, the stupid, silly and altogether dumb collection of automobiles I've owned over the last ten years that contained pistons, then.

when I was 17 I built this, swapped sr motor, coilovers, 2 way diff etc...

then I brought this in, had an rb20, 2 way diff, aluminum rad, coilovers and a few other goodies

moved to china for a year, sold it before I left, regretted it, and got this to replace it, I upgraded the turbo, Ogura single plate clutch, rewelded front uppers for static negative camber etc etc..

Then I got really sick, diagnosed with a fatal blood disorder, life fell apart, sold the car, got ready to die.. Then medicare approved a super expensive drug that essentially makes me totally fine, so I bought another, you see how this is going but it's almost done, promise..
