There was a meeting last weekend where 1st gen owners from several parts of Japan gathered in Nagano (geographically center of main land Japan). There were over 30 gen1s showed up.

Good find. Those guys build some hawt 7s. A couple things:
Where do they get those louvered hoods?
What's up with taking the rear bumper moldings off the SA's and leaving the open holes?
And why do they get all the 4x110 wheels?
Not fair!

no, the SE is a north american model. Instead the Japanese got a 12a turbo model instead. however iirc the 12at model had the SE lug pattern and suspension...

CP Racing is as dead as VHS - their domain is now owned by a cybersquatter.

I'm working on TPO flares - exposed bolt style, like ZG flares on Datsun 240Zs. We'll see how it pans out.

AWS - are you certain they're just ZGs, not JDM aftermarket flares particular to RX-7s? my man in Japan says they have 'em there...
