Looking for someone who can powder coat throttle bodies for FD RX-7. I was told this was harder to do, due to the thermo pellet wax, Is there anyone on here that has experience with this and could do it?

Thanks!

 

well i cant do it but i have done it to mine. I stripped everything out of mine and tapped up both ends so the powder don't get in where the throttle plates are. Other then having a few areas that are tight it isn't much of an issue. Tight areas with powder coating opens up issues called Faraday Cage areas or something like that.

 

Like this?

 

Damn that's slick, I want one^^

 

My brother (1cleanCYM) and I will be offering the service soon.

 

I powdered coated mine in a satin finish and nickel plated all the hardware lol. the image opens correctly if you right click open in a new window, all my pictures are like that for some reason.

 

Damn that nickel plating though..... Sure makes it pop.

 

Yeah I like it. I needed to do something either polish the aluminum or make the hardware stand out. And polishing was to time consuming. I did this for all the fasteners under the hood. For some fasteners it came out looking like chrome but others it didn't. I didn't care to polish all the fasteners which would have helped make it all look like chrome. Had other stuff to deal with in my build.
