Anyone been in one of these? I've always liked the look of them, especially with the body kits on. Absolutely luscious!! My mate just bought a 2001 DC5 Integra Type R that is gorgeous and it makes me want an rx7 even more lol

Champion cars by all accounts but dont those rotary engines need rebuilding after 30k miles??
Look nice, need rebuilds at a cost of a mortgage though if not looked after.. oh & if you think the GTTurbo is bad on fuel ....wow..the ****el lump is supposed to be terrible..
i looked at a few from factory the mpg is about 12:eek:Quote:

Its Quite fast to say the least lol, Much faster than His old 700bhp Skyline, Just due to the fact they weigh Naff all. Good cars IMO :smokin:
Insurance is a killer on those, I fancied one but didn't like the premiums. That's more due to the fact i'm still under 25.They can't be that bad on fuel because it was costing me £30 for 2 days in my GTiR
