I think he already has one. SMB is in austrial what Racing beat is in the US. They make sport exhaust systems with stock look and low noise levels.

The wing isn't that bad if he actually needs it for autocross or road racing since it actually makes a HUGE difference. But if he has it on just for looks, no comment then.

I spend 5 years in the army as a combat engineer (sapper). been to iraq twice and medivac'd twice lol. in 04 I got shot in my left knee. 3 reconscructive surgeries. then got evac again in 07 for swelling in the left side of my brain. been blown up 6 times and im still getting occipital nerve block shots in the back of my head every 2 months since then. thats pretty much how i got my purple heart.
Im a private military contractor now and most of us use kalashnikovs w/optics since the areas we work in, the enemy also uses AK's. it makes it easier for us to get ammo.
my setup...
Norinco MAK-90
Aimpoint M68 red dot
MasterMold dual clipped magazines X18
Mako Group Israel skeletoned buttstock
Mako Group Israel picantinny rail system and foregrip
Blackhawk! 3 pt. sling

getting off topic. lets get back to FDs
just pm me for weapon setups and available contracts if your sick of your job lol

Right on the money, Speed. Excuse the free plug, but SMB were the guys who designed the (Bathurst 12 hour) race winning system on the aus spec SP variant series 6's in the early/ mid 90's. The system I have is a full turbo back unit. The photo actually shows my original pipes on the car but it has been updated since then. Thanks for reminding me.

haa! thanks. "re-a ti" is hard to catch and associate w/ an exhaust although I will admit if i was paying more attention, i wouldn't have asked.

Sorry, I answer so many PM's that I abbreviate the **** out of everything. Re-A is Re-Amemiya. That is a very rare and long discontinued re-amemiya full titanium exhaust, MSRP was close to $2000. They were made in an oval canister and a typical round canister (like the re-a TA exhaust). The round canister is super rare, only seen one, the oval canister is a bit more common. I believe a couple companies make an exact replica of it in SS (stainless steel), but no one makes a replica of it in titanium - at least to my knowledge.

Yes, they are the Enkei's. 17x9 +45 with a 5mm spacer on the front (for Stoptech brake caliper clearance). Front fenders are also rolled due to rubbing in the corners. If I didn't have the spacers, it probably wouldn't rub though.

Here's a video of a fellow RX-7 following me ^_^

The BEST upgrade I have made on my car since I owned it for the track. Nothing helps you more at the track then when you can trust your car to stop when you tell it to so you can push harder and brake later.
