Next steps:
>Transmission swap
>Swap out tires/wheels/maybe brakes
>Sunroof delete
>See what I can do about some of the God-awful bodywork
Then I think it’ll be mostly good to go.

The headliner is suede, which might complicate the sunroof delete. Not sure.

How much did the PO pay you to take that hideous piece of shit off his hands?

>sunroof delete
For what purpose? Is it leaking? Keep the sunroof.
>>
>>27774234
lol, nothing lines up properly
the hood isn't straight, the headlight isn't straight, the fender isn't straight, along with the bumper

I just dont like people in trucks looking through the roof, down into my car and seeing what im wearing (i often wear skirts, and boy clothes from the waist up.)
>>
>>27774295
Lots to unpack here. What happens when you get to your destination and get out of the car genius. Are you gonna wear a fucking paper bag over your head. Hate to break it to you dude but if you want to spare yourself embarassment then don't roll around in something that busted to begin with. If you're too insecure to dress like a tranny in the first place without worrying about what people think then I'd suggest you invest in a pair of pants instead of doing hairbrained shit like a sunroof delete, and in the meantime, budget towards the inevitable rotary engine rebuild. Better yet, Commit insurance fraud on that thing and use the payout to buy a nice corolla.

I don't even know what kind of car it is. Are you an Aussie?

Alcantara is not suede, it's vinyl.
>>
>>27775433
dubbs but maybe they were broken
>>
>>27775460
100% sure they werent and even if they were im sure it would be easier to source some used parts instead of a retrofit kit
>>
>>27774774
>my eyesight is too poor to see through a tinted sunroof so I must delete it
Great job.

Then go buy a used oe sunroof cover you fucking dingus.
>>
>>27774244
Looks like the sunroof was already deleted on the inside.
>>
>>27774244
I would dodge sunroof versions just because you lose like an inch of headroom and FDs are short on that anyway, but it makes as much sense as doing an auto to manual conversion. Just buy the one you wanted and save yourself the headache
>>
>>27775503
Every version of RX7 had sunroof options.
>>
>>27774224

>bloated

Why ruin an already timeless design with a bodykit?
>>
>>27775975
it probably got that while it was new
>>
>>27775534
I think deleting the part that shouldn't be there is fine. I don't understand why people get so angry about this, its like the whole bathroom debate.
>>
>>27774224
I appreciate and respect your commitment to updating us on your terrible decision, despite all the hatred and (rightful) trolling.

>newfag detected

Tl;dr: OP sold his current car and a bunch of other stuff to barely afford this atrocious, riced out ~16,000$ Rx7 FD in Japan I believe.
...AND IT'S AUTOTRAGGIC

Anons have been laughing at his terrible financial decisions ever since
