Shoot a PM to Oldschool80s. He's in your area, and if he doesn't have one, he probably knows who does.

Good luck...

Hey if you're in a serious rush give Rotary Performance a call they are located in Garland Texas http://www.rx7.com/ they have several Fb Rx7 that are parts cars if I'm correct, it wouldn't hurt to try.

Thanks and yeah Mary was our very first call but they didnt have a useable one.

I got my control arm this morning on my doorstep, orderd it the day before at 3pm and got it next day for 40$ with shipping. Thank you sooo much RX7addict (ebay store) hes based in Oklahoma city, he has lots of used first gen parts and second gen parts. Great guy and plan on ordering from him again ^^

On another note, Im all registerd for my first Auto-x event July 10, but dont see any other 1st gen RX-7's, does anyone have any tips for me? Kinda wondering about tire pressures, im still on the stock rims 13x5.5 on OE size rubber.
