\"AWD<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s been three months since we last shared<\/a> Todd Budde’s 1993 Mazda RX-7 project being built at his company FabFitters<\/a> in Vernia, Texas. Since then he’s been working on finishing the project in time for a SEMA 2019 debut. Behind the Mazda RX-3 front sits a twin-turbo all-aluminum 26B four-rotor with a dry sump system. The goal is to make around 900 horsepower thanks to twin Garrett G42-1200 turbochargers. Power is sent to all four wheels through a Lamborghini Gallardo transaxle. The car rides on Corvette C7 control arms and uprights with DSC adjustable coilovers and Wilwood six-piston brakes. View more photos of the build at @forcefedfab<\/a>.<\/p>\n
