The other day as I was heading to a buddy’s house, a rock, a wrench, a bullet (what ever it was sounded like my wheel fell off) introduced itself to my new passenger side Setrab Oil cooler. So I ordered a new one and it’s arriving today.

It doesn’t leak and I could’ve just sent it for DGRR or just turn it around to a fresh back side. But when it’s a replaceable part for 185.00 shipped, it’s a no brained to just replace it like a worn part.

 

The radio looks good, the surround trim doesn't look like the match is that bad for the '94+ texture as well. Any pics of it from farther away?

I can't believe that oil cooler didn't leak, it looks like the hit was hard! I'm glad to see if held up and didn't cause any issues for you other than the inconvenience of replacing it.

 

Fab a screen for the cooler and radiator inlets

 

+1, I put gutter guard in the bumper opening to protect my GReddy V-mount, radiator fins are nearly 100% straight after 3 summers worth of driving, planning to do the same for the oil coolers once I have them service this summer.

 

I ordered some screens and clips through shineauto. But I won’t have enough time to install them for DGRR.

 

 

Looks right at home. How do you like it? (And, what exactly is it?)

 

Alpine ILX-107. Picked this unit because of Apple car play, Siri ready, Spotify, and of course it’s elegant look.

 

Does fit in there nice

Clever! That ought to do the trick. Can't imagine that impedes airflow much?

 

Awesome idea with the clips. I shoe gooed the crap out of mine. Think i added 5 lbs to the front

I gotta spend more time reading build threads

 

Looks good! The screen looks just like the gutter guard I used, I don't think it'll affect airflow as I have had mine like that for a couple years and temperature is solid. Now I need to do the same for the oil cooler once they are back from service.

 

The oil cooler vents are straight forward and easy. Getting the mouth of the bumper for the radiator was difficult on the sole fact that the top of the inside bumper mounts are further out while the bottom are further in. Which I had to take off and form the mesh diagonally so it looks straight as possible rather then it concaving in.

 

Yeah, I remember that about the bumper mouth. I mounted an aluminum rod on the rebar using the stock foglight mounting holes, the top of the mesh is ziptied to the rod and the bottom of the mesh mount just like yours. The rod seats a little further back on the rebar than the edge of those funky bumper skin edges, so I'm able to re-install those 3 plastic inserts that attach the skin to the rebar.

 

Looks great !!!

 

Nice, those clips are a great idea, I'm about to do the mesh on my 99 spec bumper soon.

 

My eyes are getting worse with age, and the play of light and shadows and distance messes with my ability the environment around me. These should help out a bit when I’m driving in the rx7.

Bi-Led headlights


I’ve got so used to the 17 Mazda CX-5 and the 19 Chevy Silverado LED lights that any output less then has me squinting a bit and driving slower.

 

Sakebomb Garage kit? I LOVE mine.

close, but they are AZ’s small batch production bi led lights. He did such an amazing job in the quality of the product. It’s sad to see that everyone can not benefit from his product. I feel lucky and a bit proud that I was able to get a set at the right moment.

 

Front End Upfresh. Just like the Montego blue

 

Nice

 

LOVE IT - Done the right way!

 

In for LED output shot! My next retrofit will have to be LED
