Will they fit my RX-7?

Hi Guys,
I have a Jap import RX-7 Type RS Year 2000 model,(RHD) and I'm looking for a DP and a rear Strut Tower Bar .
http://www.rx7store.net/strutbar.htm ------Cusco Oval Shaft rear Strut Tower Bar For 93+ RX-7 $155.00

http://www.rx7store.net/downpipes.htm ----M2 Stainless Downpipe for 93-95 RX-7 $295.00

Will they fit?Any advise will do. Many Thanks.

Jeremy

I believe Jap-Spec rx7's have a dent in the downpipe to clear the RHD steering linkage, or so I have been told. So I would think that a DP for a U.S. Spec car wouldn't fit..

I think the strut tower bar should fit though. That is a Japanese company, plus U.S. Spec and Jap-Spec cars should be the same in that area.

Just a hint, there was a guy here in the states selling a used RE Amemiya downpipe on www.thepartstrader.com , that DP should be for or off of a RHD car. Don't know how much shipping would be but he wanted like $150.00 U.S. for it.

the HKS downpipe should fit your car, but it's mild steel & will rust faster. That said, it's highly unlikely that your car will outlast your downpipe, even if it isn't stainless.

Don't forget, the guy lives in England, the land of cold, humid sea air.

I would not get a mild steel downpipe.
