Aye, that it is. Especially with what looks to be lots of added power (at a glance, didn't really read). Be careful with it, man, but glad you were able to stay in the family!

Congrats and be careful. You don't want the backend to decide to loose control of itself on you again.
P.S
Those tail lights have to go. They might be the single ugliest thing I have ever seen on an
FD.

Hmm is that rear "spoiler" really that ugly? I think it adds to the car?
Might look as if there is a lot of power mods added, but it was all basic safety mods to make sure the engine runs fine.
Absolutly love this car, glad I stayed with the rotary family, this car turns heads all over just like our 8's--cept I'm starting to see a lot more around where I am now.

I think stock they are around 255hp to the fly I think?
The guy hasn't dyno'd the car yet, but with his mods he is guessing 280hp, I don't know if he means to the wheels or to the fly, but he hasn't really added any kind of performance mods, so I would guess to the fly but I may be wrong.

Have you see the M2 Stage 3 performance kit for the 7? Basically what you got there and it is 350+ to the wheels! It doesnt take much to get alot of HP out of the 3rd Gen. Intake, exhaust, blowoff, intercooler, and ECU map will smoke most anything on the road.

This cannot be 350+ to the wheels lol. I mean, it has Greddy intake, Racing Beat exhaust, HKS BOV, Aftermarket intercooler, HKS mild downpipe, pullies, new clutch, but stock boost and stock ECU. I HIGHLY doubt I am pushing 350+ to the wheels.

Dean, yes that was Jason's car he was at the Krispy Kreame meets when we were like the only ones with our 8's lol. He's a great guy, glad I could take over such a clean car.

Congrats on the purchase, but as much as I do like the rx7, I would still prefer a brand new car, its the new car smell
. But try to be more careful, this thing seems a whole lot more powerful than what you were driving before.Merry x mas.
