I find I get good results with a paint roller (4"). It lays down a pretty even coat and if you get bubbles they can be tipped out with a brush. You don't want...
I was going to try to get a heat sheild on the exhaust pipe tommorow, i am debating on what to use. What ideals do you have that is Low Cost and nice looking?...
Hi Chris, Try a brush for the gel coat - don't try the paint gun as the passages are too fine for the gel. Gel coat sprayers are quite different to a normal...

Hi everyone. Our shop is capable of custom making any heat shield. Take a look at my car on e-bay item# 2491589538. If you supply me the exact specs, I'll have...
Hi Everyone, As you know by now, I made all of the electrical and electronic components for MCC vehicles. I have a number of things that I'd like to pass on at...
Perhaps you could post the drawings and specifications in the files area for us all to use. Since you aren't soliciting business I'm guessing this won't be a...
David H asked me to post the heat shield specs. There are no specs. Anything I get our shop to make is strictly a one-off made for you, using your specs and/or...
Geoff, I wonder if Ebay would be best for the GT40 plug. Seems like you would probably get more money with a automotive collector/auction house or something...
Just saw an add for a 1982 RX7, turbo, 5-speed for sale with no title, $300. I think someone went over the RX7 for me before, but I can't find it in the old...

... Thanks, if I ever get to build one of these things, I'm sure it will be a +442 model, so the longer rear axle ought to be OK. How hard is it to modify the...
Hi CJ, Yes I do remember you and thanks for the condolences. I’ll be taking some pictures of the dash etc in the next little while. I’ll send you copies. I...
... I'm using Yamaha R6 shocks on mine for the front, and I'm still working out how to use them in the rear. Things to think about - excessive spring rates...
stuskim: The answer is: sometimes. They are cheap and very plentiful. To use these, you have to do a lot of design work that may or may not be realized as...
makes sense i guess that a bike shock would be moving at a different rate than a car! maybe it'll be too much for a couple of shop kids :) the kids have...
i ws poking through posts and spotted a reference to walnut...i can find out the name of a veneer manufacturer up here in vancouver BC if anyone is interested....
Hi Chris, Anything can be made custom, but the economics of making a one-off anything usually takes it out of the realm of possibility. If you have a drawing...
I'm picking up an 85 RX-7 myself for $25 Wednesday ( blown Apex seal on the front rotor). Lots of great parts. also plan on selling the body panels for extra...
