JEFF JONES New RX-7 @ FORMULA D 2010

[Jeff Jones]

We bought a body kit from AIT Racing the fitment needs a lot of work.


It’s a C west style. It need it a lot of heat gun and trimming to fit.


Not so bad, it’s growing on me.


Motor placement.



turbo 2 transmission and R154 transmission.



I put the gas tank in for now.


Random under pic of the front.


Got this fuel pump for big power.






Got the side skirts

[Jeff Jones]

Time to clean this up.


The grinder made quick work of the bondo.


Also got these fenders




Ok AIT what happen? These are crap. Fitment sucks and man these things are ugly.


Ok I’m going to send these back.




This looks better.


car on the floor


Ride height is cool but with the new bumper the radiator is too high.


It’s staring to look like a car.

I had to move the car over to the next stall for the night.

When I showed up the next day this bug was on the dyno.
It’s called the Red Baron.

Finally picked up some stock fenders.




I don’t know what these tabs are for but they got to go.


That’s better


Hood pins


Lowered the radiator but, the warped bumpers not helping.


Picked up some tail lights.


Hack up the radiator to relocate the in & outs.

the yard stick is to make a straight cut.


Wile I was cutting, Rene was machining a cool strut brace.

nice job

but front in aluminum is not too light for crash or little push ?

[RX7Turbodrift]

by far my favorite build. i love it. if i were to cut and wield my spindles on my s14 would it still be ok for road use or would i have to turn it into a full time track car?

[Ninja Asaassin]

The Jeff Jones Racing team has put a lot of time, money, and heart into this build thus far with the collaboration of CX Racing and Rotary-Works. With progress continuing to move forward, we wanted to find a paint & body shop that would put in as much effort and pride into this build as we have, so we turned to the best shop in so cal, Donlyson Auto Concepts located in 5079 N. Maywood Ave,
Los Angeles, CA 90041. The owner, Francis Fabiculanan, has an extensive collection of trophies in his display room that belong to a countless number of award-winning show cars that carry his unique and flawless paint schemes. What better way to debut our drift car than with an exquisite paint job done by none other than this highly reputable shop.
