Where are the 1st Gen body EFX?
I have just got my hands on a nice '79 and this time I would like to "dress it out" with some really nice body parts, but after looking around the web for the last few days, I've come to the conclusion that there aren't any availible for the 1st Gen RX-7. I am especially interested in finding wheel well flares or extentions to acommendate some fat treads! If anybody knows anybody with some or have knowledge of some really great 1st Gen sites, please let me know. Thanks.
This is my second time around for owning a RX-7, I had a '79 about 12 years ago. It holds the record for more tickets than any other car that I've owned!

the new victoria british cataloges have some decent wings west body kits for 1st gens, including a SCCA spec racing fender kit. and cpracing.ca has a 3" fender flare kit if you just want to put some wider wheels to keep it legal and they aren't too flashy.(if thats what you are going for)

Bodykits have their place. Widebodies, for example, allow the installation of wider wheels and tires. Which, in turn, allow more control when high power figures are reached. It is all dependant on what you have under the hood though.

He never said he was keeping a 12A now did he? And besides that, 350 is easily attainable even if he did keep a 12A. Most of the kits people are recommending are aerodynamically functional. Many are going to slow him some as far as outright acceleration goes, but will make him ultimately more stable at high speeds and in cornering.
I could understand whining if he said "Yo, Iz lookn 4 a 9 inch wing and some DUBs! Joo gotz sum?" But asking about genuine kits and body effects is a completely different matter.
