Hey, nice meeting you today RevZempoe. That was a pretty good turnout once the DC people showed up. I'll post my pics tomorrow or sometime. Where'd you guys end up going for dinner? Hopefully we can have another meet like that in the springtime when it's not so windy or cold.

They are 15x7, which is an inch wider than the stock wheels I currently have. I would have gone for a larger wheel if I had more money but for $79 a peice I and didn't wanna pass them up.
Borbet makes some quality stuff.

anyone interested in a hid setup?

from the forsale section...


i have a set of 2 ballasts (computers) and 2 bulbs that came off of a lexus rx330. these are true hid bulbs, not the hyperwhite bulbs you can buy at walmart or autozone. i got them to put on my motorcycle, but the way the wiring is, i cant wire it to run a low beam/high beam without cutting into my harness, which im not going to do. the lights are way too bright to be running both all the time, so unfortunately, im going to sell them.

these bulbs go for $352/each at lexus. for those considering it, theses are extremely easy to put into a vehicle. the only problem i can see is mounting the hid in the lense itself. all the computeres require is a 12v power source and ground.





im taking offers

Good luck Mike. I'd offer you something but honestly, you should be able to make some good $$$ of those from someone.

I have no clue how much Jeff would charge, but if you call (804) 355-4440 and ask for Jeff (he owns the shop) he can tell you everything you want you know (and more.) Good luck!

Let me think about this some - I might be able to help.

Do you have a somewhat flexible evening schedule?

Hey guys... looking for an FD oil pan.

My car has been with Jeff at DeltaV for like 2 months while I wait for a very large invoice to finally get paid. Well now that I got some cash I don't want to drop the 120 plus shipping for a stock oil pan from mazda if someone has one laying around the garage.

Preferably one that is from no more than one rebuild. The reason for replacing it is a pesky leak that a new gasket did not fix. The pan has survived three rebuilds and has been over tightened too many times and now does not seal well.

Anyone have one?

I heard from Performance Buyers Club in Chantilly VA that a guy named fritz in Chesapeak sells FD parts, so I sent the rx7club.com member, named "Fritz", a PM asking the same question. Anyone know if he is the same person?
