>Recently went down a back road that I dont normally drive down >Oregon, so not a lot of Japanese sports cars around here, especially not from 20th century >See a gated off lot with around 4-5 RX7's from different years >Interested in one that looks like pic >one in pic has a for sale sign on it >Can't recall year because around a week or two ago >Probably worth 3-4k as it was in a bad condition but looked like it might run >Don't have money to spare but I have a 2003 Passat I don't use, needs new water pump and the leather has mold
Any way I could get this car, maybe for just the passat? I'm tempted to go back and look for the for sale sign again and ask if it still runs
Christian Jones
>3-4K for a bad condition N/A FC It'll probably cost less but need a lot of work. Fix the Passat, sell it for what you can, save your shekels, and save the RX. It most likely isn't going anywhere.
Angel Anderson
German cars are trash. Save the Rx.
Daniel Howard
I like the FC a lot. i would make mine a widebody though. this is a car with a great chassis that has VERY good suspension geometry. i want to make the most of it
Ethan Powell
did it have the scoop or not? if so, could be a turbo
Grayson Torres
So user's im gonna take a few pictures via phone of the FC and my Passat, I'll be back in an hour or two because I gotta find that RX7 again, keep the thread alive
Luke Reyes
turbo is lovely
Ayden Bell
thats a 240sx not an FC
Luis White
We're a slow board, you're not going anywhere unless Alphonse floods us but it's been a year or two since he last did that. I just like how they look. >go on google images to find a good FC picture >all of these slammed ones ugh.
Daniel Stewart
i did not say that i posted a fc i want W I D E B O D Y
Hudson Bailey
So anons, for reasons that I do not want to admit I have to walk there, I forgot to take pictures of my Passat before I made the journey, so I'll post pictures of the FC, before my Passat, and when I get back I'll post passat
Logan Green
That looks like shit. If you want widebody get bespoke panels made.
Caleb Young
user don't sell your only car for an RX7.
Jacob Gutierrez
I forgot to post with name and trip whoops
Jaxson Wright

Elijah Baker
You mean a Ronin kit?
Ian Flores
Not only car, I don't use the Passat for obvious reasons
Jack Ross
>Fuel cap not flush Try again.
Joseph Diaz
well the factory kit looks ugly imsa spec
David Foster
>B5.5 Passat You'll get like 1k tops for one of those, especially if the interior's fucked.
Christian Barnes
What is wrong with that? Easier to just leave it be than have to re-engineer how that all fits together.
Logan James
im fine with that. look how wide his tires are. i bet he can corner fucking fast. really thats GOOD to me. speed
Ryder Jenkins
I'm just sick of seeing lovely panels being ruined by knobs drilling holes through them for their Universal Fender Flares™ and Rocket Bunny™ kits.
Hunter Ross
yeah but the car came stock with such narrow wheels
Liam Morgan
>Rocket Bunny™ why is this a thing...?
Leo Brown
There's an idiot near my in-law's house that has a Rocket Bunny kit on his 350Z. The car is wider than the lane.
Jose Davis
Half way there, also body kit anons, this isn't your thread, I dislike the changing pf a cars cosmetics, if you don't like how one car looks but a different one, you wouldn't force a girl to have plastic surgery if you thought she was ugly
Owen Johnson
TBO Japan is the only kit you should put on an FC3S next to an old school RE Amemiya one
Joshua Jenkins
pic?
Dylan Flores
No but I could ask her to do squats to make her ass nicer.
Xavier Nguyen
Whatever man, body kits just aren't my style
Jackson Allen
Wish I had one. Only ever see it being driven, and I don't want to take a photo while he's in it in case he thinks I like it.
Parker Taylor
Some cars like the 350z look very nice and almost need a wide body kit like rocket bunny. But for cars like the FC, esp the Turbo II, Look fine with the stock ground effects and even stock mesh wheels
I think the Turbo II is one of the few cars I'd leave stock as far as aero kits go
Alexander Evans
Ok I found it (pic 1)
Brayden Reed
Get the FB.
Brody Jones
clean/10
Parker Rodriguez
Don't really know the year or if it runs, should I call the guy or is it not worth it? (Pic 2)
Brayden Bennett
Here's some others (1)
Christopher Martin
Ok so last pic, don't really know what his is, opinions? (2)
Lincoln Gutierrez
those FBs look sad
Cooper Brooks
Tell me about it
Camden Lopez
Roller FC's in much better condition than that can be found for $300-1000 all day long. Any of the ones in those pictures will be far more trouble than they're worth. With rotary vehicles, the best plan is to simply expect them to not run (or not run correctly), and go for the best one in terms of body and interior condition that you can afford. 13B's can be replaced or rebuilt very easily if you're willing to put in some effort.
Gabriel Nguyen
So Ditch the FC's or no? Because last I knew people slammed these into guard rails trying to be the next ryosuke takahashi, and with that in mind the red one doesn't look too bad
Ayden Adams
>tfw no salvage shakotan FB
Josiah Richardson
Just look on Craigslist for a few weeks and you'll see what I mean. Maybe they're not as common where you live, but as far as I've seen and read, non-running FB's and FC's are a dime a dozen. FD's on the other hand will always be worth a decent amount unless they're wrecked or missing too much to even be a roller.
Daniel James
The white FC only has paint problems, maybe some mold on the interior, mold on the exterior and maybe some rust, but no dents that I can see
Jonathan Peterson
Red car is a 5th gen Toyota Celica. Blue on the right is (probably) a Mazda Rx2 No idea of the other one.
Nathaniel Taylor
So I hopped their fence, and the red FC has a very clean interior, only problems being cracks in the seat (pic) but the handle on the driver side is fucked up, also dent on the right side of bumper, the White FC had almost no extirior problems, except for a fucked up passenger handle and chipped paint, but the interior was trashed, so it's more of a question of what is cheaper to handle, interior or exterior?
Nolan Thompson
Red car was firebird, nice guess tho, and both cars were RX7's
Jacob Diaz
exterior is ez, reupholstering isn't also, $$$
Ryan Green
>what is cheaper to handle, interior or exterior? Both will end up costing you more than the car will be worth.
Xavier Lee
>hitch hiking back because no car >realize this FC isn't worth me being stabbed
Andrew Williams
Ok so I didn't stabbed, here's the Passat btw
Parker Torres
is this lot in or near texas? these cars need to be brought back to life.
