@Mark - It powered up. Haven't hooked it up yet to see if the stepper motor works yet. The face plate plastics are broken so it doesn't stay on too well...and then I dropped my hood on it making a nice crack. Should work fine for what I need now until I decide what EBC I want to ultimately go with.

 

Both the Greddy and HKS EBCs are good. I like the HKS's scramble eature, better than the Greddy, but for over-all, the latter is probably better.... Though MAX psi, I can't verify.

 

Stuck indoors all day with family, however modded the single vacuum diagram to what mine should resemble.

So big news. I used some of my manufacturing contacts in China to locate a ton of FD and FC parts. I've already put in an order for the first part to test fit but I'll be doing a group buy after it arrives if all is good. I've got access to some great stuff...all CF and FRP. It's going to be fun guys!

 

'First Part' as in FD stuff? Nice!

Hm... Since it's manufacturing, we could go one-up, like Mario: Making FD parts for FCs! Ha-HA!

No... Seriously.

 

I have access to quite a few FC parts as well...CF door sills, mirror triangles, headlight covers, etc. Unfortunately FC guys tend to have the least money of any RX7 owners. Hence my focus on FD parts to start.

 

Care to share what you access to now?

 

any cf parts that I dont have alreadY?

 

Buddha, Mark, Eddie, etc...PM with your email address and I can send you catalogs. I forgot how funny it is to deal with these factories and their reps. I mean they would sell their mother to get the deal done. The fact that I've got 2...and maybe a 3rd to all play off against each other...this is good.

I'm not going to sell any parts publicly until I've tried a sample myself. The one exception I may make is for you guys that I know personally with the understanding if it is a POS part that you are going to be stuck with it.

But yea...fully body kits, spoilers, hood latches, lugnuts, hoods, the CF interior that you just bought Mark...have access to that.

 

interesting, wonder if there is a oem style rear carbon bumper

 

Mark...that is one item I have not seen. There are only a couple rear bumpers they have. Catalogs headed your way shortly.
