I guess you are right about the money diff. because that is $120US. Also, the company I'm talking to needs at least 20 people to pre order before they can make the kits.

hmm, that kind of sucks then. I'm finding that rebuilding an rx7 is an expensive game. No-one in this whole city is wrecking an Aus 84, making it impossible to get parts, and no companies around here seem to cater for the first gens at all.

I'm learning that too, but I still enjoy my car. I found quite a lot of stuff on the internet, you just have to dig to find it. It isn't laying out in the open like it is for 3rd gens., which are still too expensive.

Yeah, theres is a lot of stuff on the Internet, but not in Australia! Getting stuff bought and shipped from America is not something I really want to have to do for every single component I require.

Oh well, bitching about it won't help me, I just gotta hope someone decides to wreck some rx's over here. :bigthumg:

Remember most parts from 81-85 are interchangable. :bigthumg:

Thank you directfreak. Those gauges will do nicely. Plus, they are a lot cheaper than $120, but they are not indiglos either. I can live with that though.
