my ongoing struggle

Hello all this will be an ongoing thread of my struggle with my fd3s and its build

I bought this car about two months ago. This is my second rotary powered vehicle. My first was a 1988 NA fc3s. I loved the car until it popped and I sold it. So now I have a 1993 Fd with touring package. the vehicle was modded prior to being purchased.

Mod listdone by previous owner)

koyo radiator
FAL fans and shroud kit
mishimoto radiator hoses
ApexI pod filters
smog delete
xs power LSMIC
megan street coilovers
ApexI down pipe and full exhaust with high flow cat
ApexI power fc
unknown carbon fiber hood
hot water labs headlights (removed)
enkei 17's with crazy large tires


Mod List: ( I have done)
dangdrifters intake piping one off
17'' gram lights

In the works:
DangDrifters crossover tube
DangDrifters compression tube & elbow
DangDrifters AST
DangDrifters full 3" catless exhaust
Ogura Clutch
DangDrifters full cage
various gauges
big country labs wing

Cons:
needs multi switch
needs random misc parts
yucky paint
needs headlight covers

At the moment my car is at my buddy's shop for winter storage as well as getting some much needed maintenance. My buddy Russel owns DangDrifters in New Hampshire and is fabing up a bunch of one off parts for the car as well as doing an overhaul of the vacuum lines and cleaning up and sealing of the grounds. In the spring after the car is all buttoned up it will be heading over to granite state dyno for a nice tune! the compression is 105 in the front and 100 in the rear which I am a little bit worried about but will hopefully be deciding what to do about that soon. I was thinking NA because im really into NA and wouldn't mind a 20b na or even some type of newer 13b NA. But most likely a fresh 13b REW since I have already sunk so much time and money into the engine bay ei custom piping etc. So for now I will try to update and progress on this build and pictures!
