Yo! Like FC3S? here is mine~

I have been with InitialD since around 2003 when I started reading the ID comic books and played their arcade since Arcade Stage2? ( I am still running strong in this new ID7AA )

Then I go tuner car meets and shows (never been to SEMA )

Then financially ok and went for some cars.

^Typical life goal and progress right there of guys like us^

JDM wise I used to own a GTR R33 but felt like driving a Mercedes, so went for some more classic yet emotional yet fun cars.

Now I have got a few laying around like a blown crankshaft CIVIC EJ9 (anyone don't know would be a EK9 just not real type r with the nice stuff... just the shell LOL) And a AUSTIN MINI COOPER! Yup a car that Mr. Bean drives cept his was from 70s mine is the late 80s with better stuff.

So on more to list... but now this settles most of it and the most effort needed to keep it alive... the RX-7 FC3S. I live in Canada so they are usually rusty, therefore, I went for JDM ( I liked shifting with the weak hand anyways).

It's got good stuff from the previous owner and now I have put more better stuff in it.

The mod list goes on but some info below includes:

270whp/255tq running 1.0bar
Rebuilt engine with street port and standalone ECU
Methanol Injection
Stock Turbo
Cusco LSD ( I dono... can't feel it even after driving 2 years with it~weird)
Cusco Zero II coilovers
HKS Hi-power loud ass exhaust w/ 3" straight pipe
~ANDDD some real nice shoes that we InitialD lovers loved....
RS Watanabe magnesium wheels, that's right, not minilites or rotas... but they are magnesium (still fixing the bents)
~But to be honest, I didn't liked watanabes because of InitialD (maybe some) but the watanabes blends with older styled or classic cars more nicely and that's a known fact.

Here is a video of the sound of the car

Welcome to the Forum and very nice JDM FC!!

Akagi No Kuroi Suisei!!
Oh gawd, what a beauty! I bet Miura would be very jealous!

Man, this is one heck of a nice FC, haven't seen one like that for a while!
Perfect Horses under the hood and what does she look and great!
Dat sound!!!

If only it where closer to stock... While I do admire an FC regardless, if I'd got one, I'd prefer the stock look, and at the most, the Re-Amemiya body kit.

But anyway, it's nice. Waiting to hear more about it soon.

Totally isn't jealous that it's an FC, regardless of the look. Nope, not at all.

The Lotus is yours as well?

OMG I THINK I KNOW U, OP are u jacky

ya man~ and you are?



yea the lotus...havent been driving it since ages

im rupert aka N643/TYPR, we play BG4 together at parker

????? cnt rmb without face

when was the last time at bg4 w you?

I like it

I like it a lot

So, Jacky i assume, if you want to make Second Gen-Akagi no Kuroi Suisei you should do a bodykit like this :

last it was 3 years ago i think before i went to china for work i remember mike was there

i think it was the time when i joked that i want to make a car call icbc then u & your friend made 2 new cars (rcmp & icbc)

Vortrex: Man that looked like I need to win some lotto for that body work

N643: Oh crap I rmb that time, in fact I still seldomly play bg4 with mike. you in van?

im not in van anymore, im in china now (GZ to be exact)

i still have not found any bg4 machines online here in GZ (i know there is bg4 here online)

(THIS POST WAS REMOVED BY REQUEST)

Gonna be honest - this is probably the coolest FC I have ever seen. It looks exactly like what my dream FC would.

bump i spotted u yesterday in richmond on ackroyd rd (was that your gf beside u)

Haha I've seen that YouTube video before. Nice FC! Were the 944 plates in the video intentional or just a funny coincidence?

What size rims are those rs watanabe's? Are they also reffered to as the f8? And what offset did u get and color?

Ahh yeah I remember seeing this on YouTube. Definitely one amazing FC. The size of the Watanabe F8s are on the video description lonewolf. I was one of those guys that would annoy badtzlover about those wheels. Lol

Maybe I should join in with you and celbii in making a thread of my crappy FC. Haha

[ Post made via Mobile Device ]

LOL when? which one?



And thanks for the compliments guys! This motivates me in improving my ride

the sizes of the wheels-tires setup is in my youtube description:

Its not a great video since it was my first time playing around video editing(looks pretty damn home made )
Goal was to get the sound of the car in different directions to stimulate what will sound like in real life or on the streets

Also 944 was intentional
