Post pictures of your parts!

Ok, so maybe this is a dumb idea for a picture thread, but hey why not.

I've always loved the sight of brand new parts before they go on a car. Suspension, brakes, engine, wheels, tires... so on. You know, the way they shine before they get dirty and accustomed to being in place.

This gets owners more open to other options and exposed to what's all out there to purchase (or fab) for their rx7s.

Hey, thats alright guys. I don't see why we couldn't post pics of freshly installed parts as long as they don't look filthy. and maybe even (if you still have what you're replacing) have some side by side comparisons. Old and new, to see the difference and just exactly what we're looking at.

my new tires for my DD nothing special

Nah, it's not really that big, but in my opinion it's about as big as you would want to go on a street driven RX-7 unless it's a full bridge or peripheral port...

You said shiny?

The Corksport N/A Intake Pipe with AEM Dry-Flow Filter is pretty shiny.

(This is before the lace up heat garter for the pipe and a cold-box for the filter...)



Granted, I did have to pop it on as soon as the brown truck left.
