Thats a little harsh I think. Take it easy on the guy. I don't really care if anyone searches or not, just give him the info he needs.

As for widebody kits, your severly limited. There used to be more out there, but basically the only two still available in north america are the mariah kit and the ISC kit. Mariah is by far the best looking kit IMO, but you may be able to find an old pacific widebody kit, but thats highly unlikely.

I vote to close the entire forum down completely with the express instructions to only use the search feature as if this were an online encyclopedia. Every single topic anyone can possibly think of has at some point in time or another apparently already been discussed and nothing more can apparently be added to each topic. It would save everyone the trouble of hearing immature little ***** constantly shouting search or repost.

deja vu all over again ????

I agree that new people may not know how to search, and it is not always easy. What irritates me is when people ask questions about subjects that have been recently discussed in detail, and have not even dropped off the currrent screen yet! That has happened too many times recently.

If anyone here is a competent bodyman and wants to do something unique, I have a complete body from a Mitsubishi Starion that was headed for the crusher. I thought the front and rear fender flairs could be easily adapted to a 1st gen RX-7. The shape is very similar to a 944. They would give about 1 1/2 to 2 inches flair each side, not as radical as most of the fiberglass stuff. But it is steel , and I don't think the adaptation would be much more difficult than doing a fiberglass kit. This body I have is completely rust free.

As for RX-7 owners not being very smart, I think there are some very knowledgeable people on these forums. There are also a lot of teenagers who probably can't change their sparkplugs without help.
