Thanks guys keep it coming.

AArotary: How easy was it to get a custom flange for that IC pipe to your BOV? Can you get a custom flange for an Apexi BOV for that IC pipe? WHo can do it? and how $$?

Hey AArotary, is that the Type R blowoff valve from Greddy? I was thinking about getting that or the HKS sequintial. Which one do you recommend for a loud, but very nice sound?

AARotary 10-31-01 04:00 PM

Either go with the Greddy type-R or the HKS SSQV or the HKS racing sequential BOV but it cost alot more.

Rx7rookie21 10-31-01 04:06 PM

AArotary: Is there any spots in the engine bay to place a BOV besides flanged on a pipe?

AARotary 10-31-01 04:23 PM

I think you have to custom a flange or you can buy a kit for the RX-7 and it comes with all the hardware to mount the BOV.

Rx7rookie21 11-01-01 12:18 AM

7 eleven your engine bay rules!

Like the greddy piping.

AArotary: where can you buy pipes with flanges already set up on them? Any sites?

What about a flange for an HKS SSBOV?

billyrohm 11-01-01 12:29 AM

I think the rx7 store sells the greddy elbow with a flange welded into it. Just email jason.

Rx7rookie21 11-01-01 10:14 AM

Yeah Billy, I know Jason has one with a flange. But for only the Tpe R BOV. I kinda want to know if there is one for a HKS SSBOV. I saw a pic form Under PSI that had that setup. But hes hasnt PM'd me back.

billyrohm 11-01-01 12:12 PM

You could always buy the elbow or pipe, by the bov and mounting thing and just take it to a welding shop near you and have them cut a hole and weld it on.

Rx7rookie21 11-01-01 01:25 PM

That is true. I could do that. I would be afraid they would mess up the polish of the elbow. I might do that.

Thanks!

Whats the difference between the HKS SSQV and the HKS Racing sequential BOV, besides cost??

RX-7 GT 11-02-01 07:03 PM

it's alot bigger and different looking. also for mad boost and car's with over 500hp or some crap they say. can withstand like 3bar:D

Node 11-04-01 04:15 AM

anyone ever polsihed then got there IC piping and other lauminum stuff anodized? That would be different. I know a few tuners (PFS) powdercoat some of the stuff, mainly the IC Piping.

SuperchargedRex 11-04-01 08:01 AM

Only visible mods are the K&N and the Paxton; the bdfpr is tucked down on the firewall.

Node what is your 7 look like?

Node 11-04-01 05:55 PM

Don't have one now. Getting a FC (hopefully T-II)
I'll keep that bay tidy if it has any kinda power behind it (read stock lol)

Rx7rookie21 11-04-01 11:00 PM

Has any of you used RX7 Fashion's polished pipe intake kit? If you do, do you have pics? Kinda thinking of buying it.

Unless I want to pay $740 for the HKS SMF and pipe kit.

Looks awesome.

RX7 RAGE 11-04-01 11:39 PM

I have the rx7fashion polished intake pipes and they look great. :)

I noticed.:bigthumb:

Dr Wankel 11-07-01 12:07 AM

I did too.

BTW are the primaries all equal lenght? I'm just curious because the turbo sits so far forward.

Jeff20B 11-07-01 01:58 AM

I noticed too :)

I think all the runners are equal length, on the plenum. Or did you mean the intercooler plumbing?

Rx7rookie21 11-07-01 07:59 PM

So is it really safe to polish the intake plenium?

I mean straight take it off and take it to somebody to be polished.

Yes, it's perfectly safe; but if you're going to do it yourself make sure you wear a mask. It's also a good idea to blow some compressed air through it to make sure there aren't any aluminum shavings in there when you put it back on.

I was lazy and painted mine, but I don't like the way it looks. So when I have the time I'll polish it.

Node 11-07-01 10:43 PM

Don't know what that is, but I'm sure its not :) It was done by Micks MetalCraft in Sydney I think.
