Hiya
It was time!!! Our baby the RX7 was to be shipped off to Reworks in Portsmouth to have the engine rebuild and much needed manual gear conversion

After about an hour of messing around we finally got the car onto the truck, with added assistance of blanks of wood.....

Of course I had to follow the car on it\'s maiden voyage to Portsmouth, which took hours. After to lengthy calls I really wanted to put a face to the voice and I have to say I was impressed and everyone at Reworks them were really friendly and knew what they were talking about.

It will be a transformed car in a couple of weeks - Can\'t wait :3gears-lh
Nice one Kirk, all your car needed was a manual box. Shame you\'re gonna miss the London Run this Sunday, hope to see you guys at the next one.
Great looking car. Love the colour. Hope you get a great engine to match :)
Ahh, you met Mr Quane - what a gent :)

Yeah I met Mr Quane - what a lovely chap. He got it there safely without any probs.
They have already started working in taking the gear box out, but it won\'t be ready for the London Run - We will be there next time!
Cars looking smart mate :Thumbs-up and like the look of reworx, why do i live so far away :(
nice 1
out of curiosity how much is the gear box conversion costing? thinking about this myself
Sorry to hijack the thread but can I ask where you got your FEED 2 front bumper from Mr. Tyson and how much it cost??
I\'m looking for one myself before I get my respray done.

It\'s a fair drive Andy - but a worthwhile one. Had my map done there.
Luckily, family are in Worthing, so have a stop over close :)

It is costing around £1500 for the full conversion apart from the gear knob (which is a personal touch anyway) :)

Hi
We bought the Feed 2 bumper from a company that advertises on ebay, they are based in Hackney. They are a great company and we bought quite a few bits from them.
As you can see we filled the hole at the front to make it a little more individual.

Worth every mile, I know of peeps that live further afield that make that journey :Thumbsup!

Woo, that\'s mine floating in mid air behind yours :)
Better give em a call tomorrow and find out what the damage is.
Nice at least you can see they are working on yours lol :)
Hope everything works out well with the manual conversion :)
A very nice car you have there dude :god
I saw your car down at reworx yesterday, must say it looks lovely in the flesh too, I saw it from underneath as chris was working on it and it looks very tidy down there as well.
Can\'t say enough nice things about the guys at reworx, they have bent over backwards to help me out with my current engine work so much, big thumbs up. I\'d be very confident of leaving your car with them for a couple of weeks!
:)
Shame your not going to make this weekends London drive mate. Hope to catch up with you on th next one. You could always come in the MX5 :)
Hope all goes well with the conversion. I\'m sure the guys at Re Works will look after your baby as if it was one of there own :)
Adam
Think I know where Tyson007 is refering to, I brought from them too ... very cheap and good quality. U can contact them on 07915035938
Saw your car while i was there on Thursday... Looked a very nice example, and the colour is superb :D
Was almost a 650 mile round trip for me... But was well worth it. the boys at Re:worx did a great job.
johns, are you talking about the bumper??
Yes, they sell different RX kits
You\'re a star!
I\'ve just phoned them and spoke to Kai, they have loads of bodystyling kits for the Rex at really decent prices. Thanks johns
They r cool, they fitted my too
Yea that is their number, I just got off the phone from them
They are really nice guys, they came to my house twice (about 1hr away) so that I could try different bumpers. Nothing was to much for them - a BIG THANK YOU :god :god

Sorry for the late reply, we would have loved to take the MX5 but we are having engine probs with that too - \'smokey joes\'. But it seems to be hanging in on there - hopefully until the RX7 is fixed! Money Money Money :eek

Hiya,
The underneath looked cleaned - it looks like you have a nice car.
I reckon yours will be done before mine!
