Usually I think RHD swaps are corn ball, but with an RB this makes sense. Good like wood!

Agree 100% with the above statement. Makes sense with the swap. Can't wait to see some progress on this. Should be sweet.

You both are correct, do to the size and exhaust location of the RB the RHD conversion made perfect sense!

Test fit the clutch today! ( OS Giken GT Twin)



Front Aero Fitted: ( RE-Amemiya Facer AD slightly modified)



I couldn't fight the temptation to see how it looks!!! it's not mounted, just sitting on stands... I will need to fab a new front member and move the rach down 2 inchs and out 1 inch




Light coat of primer on the front aero, the RE bumper is made very well and will need very little to make it perfect. The rest of the car will need some love...lol

That was a Texas FD.... Did you buy from there or was it yours and you moved to arizona? Just curious as I know a few guys who have had black RX7's. Sweet build so far, look forward to seeing more updates.
