nice idea, always loved the RX7.
I've been peddling the GT86/BRZ idea to the gf for awhile now.

Cheers boys! Yeah, I'll try come to the next meet with it & will catch up with you Trav.

My bro had his first drive yesterday & 2day, woke up early & drove to work early just to drive....lol

I'll take more pics this weekend, but for now I'm bed struck with a virus.

Another observation is the driving position. Feels even lower than the SW20.

Intercooling on these is a bit of a drama. I'm considering if an IC fan will help.

Nice FD!!  I hope your brother learns some mechanical respect to do both the RX7 and MR2 justice.
 
I can relate to the long term niggle for an RX7, I've always longed for an FC myself.  I suppose that's the difference between an SW20 & AW11 driver!

Took the FD for a long drive on Sunday. Was a hot day & I could see the IAT's rising. Thank God for the PFC commander. Drove the MR2 afterwards & I have to admit, the old Deuce hasn't lost its charm @ all. All the work I did with the MR2 really shines in comparison. My brother even drove it home & admitted how much of a better/refined drive it is. Off boost driving, the MR2 destoys the FD hands down.
