I thought you were trying to tell people what you are doing to your car.....am I mistaken?

Oh ****, NM your right.....i totally forgot about the 20 extra HP you gain by adding the apexi spinner tach!

When your done installing yours can you do mine too?

i think he'll be too busy adding more performance parts to his car (i.e. altezzas, carbon fiber hood, wing, body kit, rims) that he won't have enough time to help out w/ your car

well since these posts have been total bullshit ill let you know that i had the tach and it was great... I have an 88 GTU and the response of the elmeter tach made the stock tach look like a grandfather clock. All i got was amazement in how responsive it was. I highly recomend it. If you have an FD then it is direct replacement into the stock tach pod and an FC is an almost drop in but you will have to hack your gauge cluster in order for it to work....if you want to see pics then PM me

Let me say that i reversed the poles on a battery one day and it fried the tach so put a fuesible link on that power line.so yeah i got another one after looking at the other brands...i just have yet to put it in...

I just got my rx7(s4 tII) back in june/july so this list is just a start. only looks mods done are s5 tails. Autopower 4 point roll bar, simpson 5 point harness, driver's side recaro, tockiko adjustables all around. cusco front camber plates, apexi el tach, 1st gen apexi s-afc, apexi n1, and greddy turbo timer. I will have rear camber arms and toe steer eliminator bushings as soon as I make a call and order them. I plan to rebuild the engine myself next year and o stand alone. as to what stand alone I have no idea.
