For a car you can’t just buy anymore I’d say it’s worth it, plus I foresee the Fds only increasing in value over time. AND we get to drive and enjoy it 💪

@@BlackThrasherrrI think a solid 80% of people just pay someone to restore a car not many people in this world that are mechanically inclined nor have the time to restore but have the money to spend. Any car to restore would cost a bunch of money you are right on that but not many cars cost as much as an FD RX7 left hand drive to restore this car is just different and super rare 😂

I'm gonna have to rewatch your undercoat video because I'm about to do that to my jeep. Thanks for a little motivation.
fantastic man, you are doing a great service to the community to document the cost of these projects. I tend to assume that if you do the work yourself that anyone can have a car like this. you are probably saving a lot of guys from getting in over their heads in costs, and having as forever project sitting in the garage - not that their is anything inherently wrong with that
I absolutely refuse to pay other shops to do things if I can learn how to do them in house. While the parts costs for this stuff can be quite exspensive. If we can DIY it anyone can and it saves so much money. The biggest costs for builds is paying someone else labor
Makes me glad I got my FD with a rebuild and single turbo already done to it instead of tackling it myself. I've done lots of fixes and several larger cosmetic mods but still only have $42k in it for something probably 80% as nice as yours. Granted there's always more things on the 'to-do' and even worse the 'want' lists to add some spending on. 🤣
It's crazy for me to see these cost differences between those who buy parts for these builds vs someone like me who fabricated practically EVERYTHING for my 20b swap back in 2007 to make it affordable for a shade tree guy like myself. Hell, my D series 20b engine only cost me $4,500 back in 2003 when I bought it. I fabricated my own subframe, intake, exhaust and used lots of used parts and cheap stuff I found off ebay back then. Think I had around 15k in my 20b swap, including body kit, wheels and tires(NA of course). Oh, I only paid $13,500 for my 94 touring in 2003 with 65,000 miles RUNNING with clear title. Car has around 110k on it. What you guys are having to pay these days just blows my mind. 🤯
Dude everything’s just wild for price now, the OEM stuff is really what got me when it came to just fixing alot of the old beat up stuff in the car 💀 but it’s getting harder and harder to find so many of these parts now 😢
I was thinking the same thing, I paid $16k for my 1994 RX7 in 2004 and it was just under 10 years old so I was able to finance it as well. At today's prices there are probably better bang-for-buck sportscars available. I might try to find a deal on a C6 Corvette or a brand new MX5 or GR86.
@@Smeedia I appreciate you breaking things down by subsystem. I'm not planning to spend that much money on my RX7 all at once, but it's nice to see what it would cost to replicate the suspension setup you've got. I've only skimmed the past couple of RX7 videos, is the car driving well now? Have you taken it to an autocross to get a feel for how it handles? When I switched from a mostly-stock 2000 2.5RS to a mostly-stock 1994 RX7, I spun the RX7 pretty often at autocross events because of the difference in balance and power delivery. The RX7 is quick but you can't drive it like a front-heavy all-wheel drive car.
I have to give you a huge thanks. I just pulled my motor for the first time to replace my flexplate (lgt shenanigans). Got it back together and it fired first crank, no leaks and making full boost. Huge accomplishment for someone who couldn't change oil a few years ago.

84k is a ton but good luck finding one in this same condition for cheaper. This thing is fully gone through bolt by bolt and also built motor. Fetch well over 100k
100%, my all time favorite car in your stable (past and present). Cover Blue’s, and not to diminish any other sick s builds. I’m not a Mazda guy or anything. FDs are just undeniable and an improved zero-miles one especially.
I’m right there with you, the styling on these things are just timeless. And while the other builds have been awesome, not take the cake for how far this one has come 💪
for a reconstruction done like this of a car that is practically vintage it is normal that it costs.....if you look at the price of certain cars you can't understand what history they have....you rebuilt this one in a spatial way, great work 👍💪
@Smeedia I was wondering what’s your opinion or switching my 2013 wrx oem brakes for the STI Brembos? Do you think it would be ultimately worth it? Thanks really enjoy your videos man you’ve helped me out a lot!
I have my rx7 coming in from Okinawa that I'm gonna restore at my shop. Unfortunately it got vandalized the beginning of this year, so a ton of parts are missing. I'm not the greatest videographer, but I plan on starting again and filming the process.
@@Smeedia I might reach out for some tips or maybe places to find some parts if you’re okay with that? It’s currently on the ship and I’m collecting parts.
Congrats on the build. You deserve so many more subs for how good this content is. I hate to suggest this but if you did some clickbaity crazy shit I think it would do you some good. Think like Doug Demuro running over a PT Cruiser with his H1 Hummer like stuff.
this car is FREAKEN Beautiful for what you did and for how it looks. absoluty!!! what you did is nothing short of amazing!!!Personaly i think it looks better then most...not all but most new cars today. Still looksing at doing a 2nd Gen. but think im going to Start on my 97GMC 1500sierra first maybe do an SP383 instead of fixing up the votec350. and my son is going to start a project on a 94 nissan Hardbody. which we are tossing the idea of a 13b in it. but still up in the air the SR20 motor would probably be a better fit for it.
That was a lot of money and considering that all labour was free. Still amazing build and definitely worthy the cost. Its practically a new car. Have managed to build that of the YT income or do you have a full time job behind the scene? Big shout out from the UK 🇬🇧 🙌
I honestly thought it would cost more. Mine was around $33k to fix, and that was new OEM engine (before the price doubled, torn down and street ported), blueprinted trans, tires, brakes, ECU, engine harness, gas tank, rebuilt twins, a few other minor things, and labor (all done by Banzai Racing).
So you're saying win the lottery or get used to being poor before attempting? You were learning on the fly so to turn out this good be proud. You set the bar high. Can't wait to see the 22b clone all finished
Respectfully and not trying to be a wet blanket the actual DIY cost is higher than the $83,000 quoted. There is the cost of your shop rental, the utilities and the cost of any tools purchased for this car. These soft support costs are very real. Regardless of cost this build demonstrates that rebuilding cars from an essentially a body in white is very expensive. Hope you get lots of smile miles.
@@strmshadow8411idk I see some pretty rough ones go for 45K 😅 with what’s all been done this FD should easily last another 30+ years. Even at the 45K price point most still are original under costing, Original bolts etc

83 is suck a big number to swallow but at the same time considering how rare the lhd versions of the FD, it sounds about right. though tbh these little japanese sports cars should be realistically at around 20k... but the economy is in shambles lol.
