Wink DOn't Flame ....Pleaz.

Ok so it looks like I am going to have to stick with the GTU.... Not that I don't love it I just really wanted a TII. I was checking out some stuff on ebay ...I know and the flaming beginningg. Tell me what you think.

Not sure if these do anything but for the price if it does a bit its worth it...i think.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Bette...QQcmdZViewItem

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Strut...QQcmdZViewItem

Wow... Now subscribed to thread and will close it when the flaming/bashing starts.

Let me just say, though, that everything you posted is useless, a waste of money, and makes you look like you have no idea what you're doing. Search the forum and GOOGLE for all those things you linked to, read what people say about them.

That is all.

Only two things are on that list that would be worth while. The grounding wires and the strut bars. Everything else is a waste. Don't put that crap on your car.
You'll probably end up sucking a chunk of plastic or something into your motor with that stupid fan. I'm pretty sure all those stupid vortex generators do is create a restriction in your intake, thus the computer sees less air, and gives less fuel, and chokes your motor down. Waste of time and money.

I'd still put money into better quality parts. Get some cusco strut bars or something.

Why don't you just open up the intake and the exhaust? You will make more power by throwing a header and full exhaust on it rather than these fake gimmicks.

The grounding kit is over 20 dollars after shipping, not worth while.

And the ebay strut bars turn to crap over time. The last owner of my 2nd gen put one on and by the time I owned the car it would no longer go fully tight. I could grab the bar and shake it back and forth because of how loose it was. No matter what I did to tighten/realign it, though, would fix the issue.

Even then, the grounding kit, you can make yourself. there's are writeups on that floating around here.

All the others except for the strut brace, are useless.

I wouldnt get anything off of ebay, except for some use exterior OEM parts.
Save some money get a TII engine, tranny, etc for a TII swap or street port your existing engine with other mods.

Man you managed to open up pandoras box, but dDub was quick to close it!

Just research google, and this forum. There is a link somewhere that lists all of the rx7 online stores that you can browse and purchase items from.

Mazdatrix.com
corksport.com
racingbeat.com
rx7.com
pineappleracing.com
rotaryressurection.com
atkinsrotary.com
and many many more

Let me say that there is no cheap way to be fast, unless your a thief. If you cant get the money, then tough luck. You just have to find a way to get the cash for parts. I spent around $5k to get my rx-7 and get it running with the mods I have listed. Thats a lot of money for me, and am I happy where I am at? Yes that the car is running good, but no because I desire to go much faster. I dont have the money right now to get a intercooler or turbo upgrade, but I would never lower myself to getting fake **** like you posted. I already be stock. You just gotta find some way to get the money. It takes time to build a car for the average person. Just be patient instead of rushing it and ******* up your car with cheap *** ****. You'll regret it later. Besides the strut bar, I dont see anything else worth buying. BTW, all those parts are ricer stuff. and i thought ss auto chrome turbos were bad. That wannabe supercharger is a joke.

You should apologize to your rx-7 for what you were thinking about doing to it.
