Hope posting here might help, I've had no luck in the PARTS FOR SALE/WANTED section. https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=682296
If you have a HKS throttle body elbow and need money, shoot me a price.
Please don't post just to tell me its a waste of time or a greddy is just as good. I like the HKS and would like to have one. Any help would be great.
Thanks, Joe

 

lol, hey what's up Joe. I remember you talking about that when you showed me your car. I have the GReddy one now, but I'll be damned if the HKS one isn't sexy as hell. Good luck on finding one. By the way I'm picking up my car from Banzai on Saturday

 

Ya, I've not had any luck finding one yet, but there has to be one out there.
I check out your build page and it looks great. Way better then the first time I seen your engine bay. Your really going to love it after its tuned. You have to take me for a ride after you tune it. You will run circles around my FD.

 

Does anyone have one? Post if you have one, even if you don't want to sell.

 

have you tried FDNewbie yet?

 

Joe, I know a guy that has one, but he does not want to sell it

 

Yes, they said they would let me know if they find one.

If I don't find one soon, I might have to beg Alex to sell it to me.



Here's a new ploy, $20 reward for info that leads to a purchase.

 

I would get one too if I could find it.

 

I'm not giving up! Someone has to have one somewhere.

 

how much do these go for, ive seen a few for sale on yahoo auctions recently.

^sure is, great find

 

if i was an *******... i would buy it righ now.. but sounds like joe wants it more... lucky if that thing isnt already sold...... still im content with my greddy

 

Thank you, I ordered it. I hope this is the real deal and not a mistake. I've found sites before that say they have it, when I call to confirm its in stock they tell me they don't have it. I tried calling and got no answer, so we'll see what happens. If it does arrive I will send you the $20 I said I would give to whom ever helps find it.
Thanks again, Joe

 

Thank, For giving me a chance to get it. It's almost to good to be true. I'll have to wait to see if it shows.

 

good luck to a fellow michigander

 

good luck bro! if it makes you feel any better, i've delt with xs in the past and have no complaints. they are a standup company

...and peter's custom twin turbo kit fd with 600hp or something ridiculous is so beautiful.

 

good luck man. xs engineering have been around for a long time and are a very reliable company. i would keep trying to call them until you reach someone to talk to and verify that they still have that elbow in stock, since its a used/clearance item...

 

Thanks for the offer, but dont worry about it Joe. It literally took me 10 seconds to find it with a google search.


Glad i could help.

I got it !!!
It arrived yesterday, it's almost perfect. Most people use after market elbows to get rid of the hole in the back so that it don't have to be plugged. This guy drilled and taped it and put in a hose connector. I'm probably going to have it welded closed, but I have to decide if I am going to keep the injector holes for water/alcohol injection or just grind it down and weld that closed also.
All in all I have to say I'm very happy, I got it. I'm getting use to have to modify very thing that gets installed on my car even the "bolt-on" parts.
Thanks to everyone for your help.
Special thanks to apexFD, who found it.
Joe

 

post some pics when you get it installed. Or you could just wait and show me in person this spring

 

congrats man, i'm glad you got it
