I will take some better pics today.

Price Gap was 1100 for the 18's (although I found a company on ebay that was selling them for WAY less..... not sure why) and about 1600 for stagered 19's..

like I said, tires were more to!

KC, congrats on the new Hiros! Those should look pretty bitchin' on your car.

On a side note: I just got back from having my Tranny / differential fluids changed to Royal Purple - Max Gear Synthetic . All I can say is....WOW!! The shifting feels SSSOOOOO much smoother.

PLUS, I got to check out a whole bunch of cool RX-7's in the process since I had the work done @ Fast Freddy's Mazda. (Rotary only shop)
First time going to them but they sure do know their stuff! I'd highly recommend them if you guys are ever need any work done.

KC I have a clear corner here at home but I cant see how you take it apart to break the metal reflector piece the two pieces seem to be fused together? It is actually an extra drivers side sence they ordered a new set for my car of which I got back yesterday .

^^

use a small flat head screwdriver to push out the bottom end of the little reflector.

Once you're pried that little guy loose, take a set of needle nose pliers and bend the reflector in half. Then you should be able to pull the little guy right out.

Get 'em Kc, Get 'em!!


Great post at the end, I'm really curious as to what kind of dumb *** response he's going to come up with now.

Not that I'm any good at fixing engines but I would like to check out your 7 one day.

no problem man, maybe after the next meet..... (or feb meet) it's pretty cool to see in person. to bad it just does not run right.

that guy had it comming to him, it's a long story, but it has been dragging on for some time now.

man! that's some crazie madness there!!! hells yea i'd be pissed if my car sat w/o an engine for 9 months!

he deserved every word that was said to him. all he's looking for is to just get flamed, and he's doing a good job of that

oh, and your Hiro's look awesome! I like the silver better than the gray (like Rotary Rasp's). gotta check 'em out sometime soon

2 of my good friends- the guys who got me into the rotary thing to begin with- haven't been able to get their FD's running in about 3 years either. The mods they started require so much time & work & money that after pulling everything apart, it's almost impossible to complete without working on it full-time- which they never get to do.

Please check the 3 IMPORTANCE notices in the Calendar thread

We're coming up to the final stages and I am planning to work with Loren tomorrow to finish everything up. I would like to arrange payment and ordering info now...as well as address one final layout issue. Please check the calendar thread. Thanks.
