I have had a few people message me since I covered the engine side of my fuel system on MotoIQ about the availability of the primary injector plugs that I designed and had machined for my build. I only had the one set made, but have been talking to the machine shop about doing a small batch if there is enough interest.
Here is the link to the page in the article where I talk about these plugs...
Project [Rotary] FD RX-7: Part 2 - Fuel System (Engine Side) > MotoIQ - Automotive Tech, Project Cars, Performance & Motorsports
So before I pay the fees to actually organize the group buy, I'd just like to determine if there are any more people who would buy a set than the two who asked directly. This would included two anodized aluminum plugs, Viton o-rings, anodized aluminum top plate, and stainless hardware.

Spooky timing! I was just talking to my buddy about this just last night saying I liked the quality of those plugs and that I wanted something similar. I'd certainly be interested in a set if you'll ship to the UK, any rough ballpark on price?

I have no problem shipping to the UK, but actual shipping charges would apply.
The pricing I'm still discussing with the machine shop and depends heavily on the quantity ordered. If I could get at least 10 sets spoken for and could float the cash for some extra sets on my end, I think the price will be right around $100 per set.

It's not looking like we have many interested in these. I could quote having these made in a very small (and probably expensive) batch to get them for the few people interested, but that would be less than optimal.
So anyone else interested?

So, if we get 2 more people interested I'll open up the GB and pay for vender status so we can actually start talking price point and delivery time.

Can I ask why this is a superior injector location than the primary ports? It seems the only advantage would be to remove the y-block on the fuel lines and perhaps simplify the system since you're minusing a rail. I am probably missing something however.
Also, was there a reason you ran the fuel tubing to the front of the rail rather than the back, or is this pure aesthetics of the fuel tubing?
I am in the process of planning my new fuel system and any info is definitely appreciated, setup looks beautiful btw. I bookmarked your build so I can check back and steal Ideas, I mean borrow.

Thanks, I've learned a great deal of what I know from others on various forums over the years and hope that I can feed some of that knowledge back into the community.

I read your motoIQ post n searched all over the place for those plugs! I picked up a set from Mazdatrix, but would get a set from you as yours are far superior.

Took a couple of days longer than expected to do this, but the GB is up now.
