I flew out to L.A. this week to spend Christmas with my family, which gave me the opportunity to meet up with Antonio Alvendia and Edward Uche for the first time. Of course cars were a topic covered quite a bit as the night went on and RX7 project cars were brought to light… This of course brought on the discussion of dream builds and this video I am posting now. I honestly can not give you a solid figure of how many times I have watched this video ever since it was posted on Youtube. I would guess Edward couldn’t give you a guesstimate either.
What I can tell you is the car was built by Trial Tuning Spirit. The FD3S has a 3 rotor swap, running ITBs and and a slew of custom parts all done to make it a beast of a track car. Just listen to the beautiful music it makes – who wouldn’t want this in their garage???
I must say though. On my wedding day, I want a car much like this waiting for me at the end of the ceremony to take us away. Hopefully, rotors will be tied behind the car on rope to drag down the street behind us.

I just woke up – had to sleep early last night and get ready for my flight this morning! (damn, I haven’t even begun packing and I have to leave in 2 hours!) Thanks for posting this up, Scottie! Awesome video. Even though you and Ed obviously have already watched it a million times, it’s the first time I’ve seen this vid!
Great meeting up with you at Porto’s in the valley… not to be confused with Pornos in the valley, which we can always explore next time! haha
Merry Christmas!
i like how you have pornos and merry christmas in pretty much the same sentence.
awesome FD. that thing sounds ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Antonio have a safe flight man. It was definitely great to meet up with you two. Porto’s was a good call, they have some bomb food.
La Carrera: I think the FD passed ridiculous and moved into plaid, just like SpaceBall 1.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!
What a great sounding car!
I love this video! Seen it so many times, seems like everytime I’m bored on youtube I end up watching this. Still never gets old.
How dare you. On your wedding day you should be dragging pissedons behind the FD. No rotor should have to be dragged on the ground.
Awesomeness! Seen it once before, left me wanting to see it run on the circuit.
That car was actually build by RE-Amemiya and sold/repainted/modified later. It was originally the light yellow one featured in this video

I saw this purple version in coverage from a time attack event a few weeks ago.
@Adrian: maybe he needs to drag some extra rotors as spares in case his engine has over 60k miles and he needs to get the car home! lol
@Adrian: They would be blown/dead rotors sir or renesis ones. Once I got home they would be taken off their chains and welded together to make table legs for my man-cave/ garage furniture.
@Alastair: Thanks for the link. Trial definitely changed up a lot of the car from when it was yellow. I had to go back and open both videos up side by side so I could see what all was done. Not a fan of the yellow color, I prefer RE’s blue paint.
Omg the 3 rotor na with P Port sounds just so beautiful !!!!! Omg so awesome.. Great post!
Man,awesome post Scottie. This FD contains the very set up I would love to have in my 1973 RX3.
Sounds as if it is laughing at you hahaha effin badass.
