Buying this rusty Mazda RX7 FC wasn’t such a bad decision!

  • A couple of weeks ago, Josh decided to buy the cheapest Mazda RX7 FC turbo in the UK and drive it back to Ireland. It was cheap for a reason and the little FC Mazda needed a lot of work. We got to work putting a new bodykit, wheels and interior in the car and now this RX7 FC looks a lot more promising. Can Josh make it a show-winner in a few weeks? It's a start...

    What do you think guys? Will it be a show-stopper by the end?

    Josh you gotta give yourself more credit buddy, you aren’t an amateur anymore! All that matters is that you do the best you can with the time parts you have on hand and that’s something to be proud of. I love your solo episodes because they feel so genuine. Can’t wait to see the FC come to life!!

    Little tip with rivnuts
    Especially for kits
    Once you’ve drilled the holes
    Small amount of pain from a brush in the whole
    2 part epoxy around the edge of the rivnut when you instal
    Stops them spinning and also reduces the chance of the holes rusting

    Great video josh, for someone that is not qualified to do what you have done with the car is amazing, as you said it might not be perfect but you can take great pride in knowing you did it all yourself, great work, can't wait to see it finished and looking forward to seeing your choice of wheel to fit under those wide arches

    Have import and domestic in my lineup. But my 87 fc se (stock 4lug, slick top , manual rack and windows ) is my favorite child lol . Now 5lug swapped to turbo2 bits and diff . 6port turbo with a holset hx52. Down on a new rebuild port setup. Bought it in 2004 bone stock .He’s a keeper . Respect from Austin Texas USA 🇺🇸 .

    TIP. When fitting up a kit like that start from the rear and work forward 😉👍 i think you said something n realized that at the end but its what iv learned after working on a dozen or so different kits with my mates.

  • @Armgoth
    @Armgoth Před rokem +2

    Is there technically any qualification for bodykit fitting anyway :D ..You are doing fine Josh. Only thing was that legit before and after pics of the trunk would have been cool. It is a major change for a couple quid.

    That kit is very subtle but makes a huge difference. Now it’s begging for a spoiler, some volk wheels or a set of work meisters and a good set of coil overs. But it looks great for only two days into the build. What power adders are planned?
