gotta love that stainless gauge surround. As soon as I get a decent template for the '84-'85, I'm making one of those.

I see a ton for Miatas, etc. but none for 1st gen RX-7s at your link.

You can always go custom.

Probe interior with Autometer gauges.

Are Autometer gauges a straight bolt-in swap, or do you need special speedo cable ends, etc?

*sigh* I'd better book more time on the burn table...

I hope a couple more of you buy cupholders so I can afford to develop some other new parts

1) scooped header panel
2) brushed stainless steel instrument surrounds
3) bolt-in irs

The black backed guages from Rspeed are AWESOME! They look so frikkin cool. That stock red on black, but with silver around them and stuff!!!! The blue and white with red lettering is pretty cool too.

What would it take to mod that into my FB?!

No, no one did. There are too many changes that we couldnt get enough people to commit to it. I wanted to do 79-83, but the speedo changes somewhere in there, as well as other stuff. There werent enough people that had the same dash to get it together.
