You guys are going to love this!
New shop opening up in January in Washington state. The name is AIM Performance. They do custom bodywork and performance. In other words, if you can't find it, they'll make it for you. My cars goes in January for a complete make over, including 99 Mazdaspeed body kit, with a custom carbon fiber hood, fenders, and they're remaking the front bumper out of carbon. In addition to that, they're going to add scissor doors. :D Anyway, they'll keep all the molds from my body parts, you guys will have access to these parts for your FD's. If anyone is interested let me know, I'll post the shops website as soon as it's up. For now just email me at:

I work at an AIM in WI. It stands for Advanced Import Mototsports. There are two others that I am aware of. We have been around for over 2 years. Good luck with your car.:)

You need to give me that website addy whenever they get it up... When you say they are making you the '99 mazdaspeed front out of carbon, do you mean the Mazdaspeed GTC front??

i am buying a rusted out rx-3 sp think they can help? HAHA. Sounds interested, I hate doing my own body work, best way is to have it done.

Holy crap! Scissor doors! I heard that was a really expensive conversion. Some outrageous number like $20K (I think it was the RE Amemyia custom, built a while back). I heard that they had to reinforce the body to support the weight of the doors and the torque applied to the body. Any comment on how much the doors are going to run? Any details on what they are going to have to do?
Definitely keep us informed. I would like to see some finished product. |
Scissor doors = kick ass!
:beer: |

Where is it and how come I haven't really heard anything about it? If you guys to the same type of work as the one that he is talking about I would be interested to take the necessary road trip to see the shop and chit-chat with you guys...if at all possible. E-mail me: jbellz28@excite.com and let me know the details of your location in WI |

|
scissor doors?!?!?!
Ok, im new to the whole rx7 thing and getting more acquainted...ive never heard of "scissor doors" if seen gull-wing on certain cars...like the conquest tsi. But where can I see a picture of these doors? or even a basic description..;)

this should work...
|
Did anybody make a conversion kit for those doors, or is that all custom job?? If a kit exists, where can I geet info on it??
|
No kit for scissor doors exists...all custom work to date. Maybe the shop that is doing the job to Dan's car is going to put something out. Won't be cheap. CF doors + hardware + ??? I would be surprised if it is 100% "bolt on".

Damn!! You must have madd cashh
Bro, you said your getting scissor doors? You also said since the weight of the doors are heavy your going with carbon fiber ones? I heard just the CF doors are in the 5-10,000 dollar range each and the massive custom scissor door work is like mmaragos said, about 20,000. Thats like 2 3rd gens in descent condition! Your Rich, getting a damn good deal or just crazy. LOL...If you do get this thing going and get everything you say I would love to see it though. :beerchug:
