They are true 3 piece, but it’s a Stern Beastface of some sort. If you know any more about them, let me know. I asked the guys on rx7club and got a bit of information on them…

Cool! Seems like the ones I have are pretty rare. They also took some work to fit on the FD, since the centerbore for the rear was too small. So, I wouldn’t be surprised (if all the centerbores were the same) if I’m one of the few people to have these wheels on an FD. Probably the only one in the US…

Brent, you may like this FD. It was sent to my customer in Toronto in late 2007. It came from Feast Racing Service as sold by there customer. 13B had an O/H but the facotry turbo’s still remain. Also had an APEXi FC, APEXi exhaust, APEXi coil overs, c-west aero and lots more.

Looking forward to seeing this car in person again when I return this spring.

And here is another FD I sent over to a customer in B.C. This one came from a small tunign shop called Viper. Had a little T-04E bolted on and still mustered 348 HP to the wheels. Not bad for a little turbo!

Didnt really like the Advan’s at first but they’ve grown on me a little!

Not really feeling the kit or wing, but it’s still and FD and hottttt. 😃

The second FD is definitely nice. Are those true RE-Amem. headlight buckets? Really makes me want to get to work on mine!

Ive seen the Fairlady’s at the auction’s but in low numbers. Usually all original or semi-restored. Never once though with an SR20 swap.

One more FD which was bought for a returning customer in Victoria B.C. about 3 weeks back. This is about as cheap as they will get at roughly 10K USD. Mileage mega high at 125,XXX KM but still running well. Fitted with upgraded FMIC, filters, full aero and more.

A few photos of John S’s new machine.

Yeah there authentic. Find that they get real dirty inside.

Below is Russ’s car (Aussie English Teacher). He just built this one roughly 3 months back. He’s runnign the same lamps and again they are always filthy inside. Bad sealing qualities I guess!

This has become my favorite thread on NYspeed :D. Those 7’s are amazing. Obviously it’s easier for Canadians to import these vehicles with their 15 year rule, but do you do much business with US customers?

Yeah very easy for Canadians, but with so many budget importers, the market is flooded with low quality vehicles. This happened very quicky and not much can be done to erase it’s streak. Hate saying it, but majority of Canadian buyers are cheap and who can blame them…after all they are all very young.

Ive had my hands on a few off road type vehicles sent to U.S. All to California initially and then sent where ever by inland freight. Also a lot of AE86 customers for parts.
