Raquon's 91 build.

Post by Raquon »

I've been a lurker and seller for a while figured id post up a build journal.

I took me two years to find a legacy sport in my tri state area. As soon as I saw this car for sale I sold my first gen rx7 and picked her up. I took a 2 hour drive in the middle of a snow storm to get her. The car hasn't been driven in a few years but it started right up without hesitation. I've had it ever since.

Yeah I like the stance of the current pic. Mine was that low but I scraped the aftermarket downpipe on every speedbump :(

Myself and my friend James redid the exhaust just so that wouldn't happen. Especially with it being 3" all the way through.

We bought 10' of straight pipe, made the bends and adjustments where we knew it would scrape. My buddy that helped has a Background in slammed and bagged Volkswagens so he knew a bit more about it that I did.
If I get a chance I'll take a picture of the exhaust.
