There racing best springs. Half the price of new factory springs. I really did not want to spend the time sand blasting the original ones. Also their 30 years old. Id rather have new spings lol

well its been awhile since I posted. Mainly ive been so busy with work and all of my friends and family cars decided to all break down the past month. just way to much going on lately but I finally got back to working on the car this past week. hopefully be painting the rest of the body panels soon.

I started laying out the wiring in the car. I taped the harness up so now it looks new again. spent a long time cleaning each connector the best that I could. sandblasted and powder coated a bunch of engine bay brackets. started putting the door internals all back together. will take more pics but heres a few that I took.

wanted to try and repaint the faded interior pieces. mainly the back half of the car. SEM makes over 50 colors to color match interiors. wasn't sure what color to get. found a website that list what colors to use to match the rx7 interiors. ended up getting graphite color. looks very nice and looks like the right color but I haven't held it up to a non faded piece to see if it truly matches.

the brake booster was nasty and rusted but it works fine. a reman is $100. so I used a wire wheel and took it down to bare metal and painted it with single stage black paint that I had laying around. came out awesome.
