How the f did you get to order the trans mounts? I literally emailed him the same day you did and they said they'll email me back the next day... no response.
This same **** 4 times now.

Well stumbled upon a decent deal on an 86 rx7. Looked at it after work and may end up getting it if I can get a dolley or something to tow it. Needs a head gasket and has a cracked rad. Steal of a deal and perfect for an LS motor. If I end up getting it, I'll most likely part my car out...

I emailed her, she responded to me a few times.. but she has never responded past asking what I wanted to order... whatever. I got a TTR engine mount from Lars and it took all my axle bind shaking away surprisingly.

Lol. Seen the frame of the rx7 in lighting yesterday. Definitely isn't worth the time. Looks like a whole new patching set up on welds, plates, and paint everywhere amongst a **** ton of rust. Was kind of expected from an 86 but holy butchered it was. I'll keep my car to out do Brian.

Ya it ain't happening. Frame is shot. Not even worth the trouble. The one side rail is so bad that if you jacked the car up it may snap in half. Lol. May up keep looking to see if I can find something to catch my eye. If not, I'll just keep my car and make it hit low 11s and then work on swapping a 350 into my s10 or something.

since i've been asked already, if any of you local guys want your dash trim CF wrapped like mine let me know. all you have to do is buy the wrap up front and get me that and your dash trim, then it should only take me a couple days. price will vary depending how many trim pieces you want wrapped but i'm very reasonable.
also if you want a simple set of retro's i can do that as well. same thing, you buy the parts up front and then get them to me. mine are Mini H1's, color matched housings, no halos, no switchbacks. i would highly suggest a set of new headlights and a kit from TRS (theretrofitsource). i honestly had a lot of time into my lights by the time i color matched the housings, configured the housings, then aligned everything on my car before i put the lens on (they're not 100% perfect but MUCH better than most of the other self-made ones i've seen out there, and i used my 6 year old housings so that's where the only issues come from and why i suggest new headlights) so the price would reflect the amount of detail you'd want. like i said this is only if you want a simple set, i haven't dealt with halos so i don't know if i want to get into those (personally i think the lights look cleaner without them anyway). let me know, if anything i'll at least try to help you through the process if you're looking to build your own
