a garage might be able to hook up a meter and test the flow of power through the coil? not sure on that one

your coil might be on it\'s way out?

well,from memory....
 
Remove the passenger side trim in the footwell on the left ( 2 pop in clips and a screw in the kick sill )
 
unbolt the ECU and move it out the way for better acess (3 bolts)
 
unclip the electrical connection coming out of the \'dome\' (black connector)
 
there are 4 screws that hold it in, you may need to move some wires out of the way to get better access to them. 3 of the screws are pretty straight forward, the awkward one is in the far back corner, which if your quite a burley chap like me was abit of a nightmare to get undone! use a stubby phillips to get this one out.
 
and it should just fall out!

well i removed my motor from the pass footwell, opened it up and it was full of crud. gave it a good clean out and cleaned some of the connections and it worked again

did this ever get fixed? This has just happened to mine.... the AC works but the interior blowers has just stopped working.... have checked all the fuses on the interior fuse box and all seem fine... does anyone know which fuse it is exactly?

Try aon private clients, you might do better yet

your car has to be worth more than £35,000 just to get a quote!

Sorry, Dave, I fell for that one too, and I don\'t think you and I are the only ones. The "Special Edition" is the heading, and if it actually was some sort of special edition, it would say which one it was underneath that (in much the same way as it says "DIsplacement" and then "13B" underneath or "EXT Colour" and the Paint code such as "NU" underneath). Sorry to shoot down your hopes there, dude

oh, i\'m off to weep copiously in the corner :\'(

my car says \'special edition\' on the sticker on the door, but that\'s all it says........ would love to find out what exactly it is

This is the white one i think, its got very minimal mileage to if memory serves me correct?/

yeah, currently about to turn over to 28k soon

and yeah, I doubht he opulled them out of his ass.... told by the garage maybe?

Thank you very much for that link. should prove invaluable if i decide to go ahead and try to claim on this...... he also originally advertised it with a de-cat, but i\'m positive the PH advert didn\'t mention this, and it did come with a regular cat.... proof that he\'s removed things before?

Checked my paper work today, it turns out I don\'t have a receipt for the Power FC, contrary to what I originally thought. The car has however been to re-worx! The chap is called Lee Reid of southhampton, who purchased the car from as a fresh import from a garage called \'magnum motors\' on 23 - 09 - 2006 in Farnborogh, hampshire. Will email Pistonheads and see if I can retrieve the advert.

Unfortunatly, the ad from piston heads has now gone

The guy claimed he purchased the car on a whim and never modified it himself..... Myself and \'trevtubby\' from here went to view it and he seemed a decent guy... usually the case in these sort of circumstances... will go check paper work now

So, I\'ve had my FD for nearly 2 months now and have enjoyed every second of it. My car was advertised as having an apexi power fc, but it had no commander. Fair enough i thought and carried on. I added a de-cat pipe and cat back system with the hope of getting it mapped shortly after. I\'ve been taking it steady since adding these items of course for safety reasons

Anyway, the other day I went to look at the ECU, only to find it was a stock ECU , now a power FC! I was really ....ed off... Could I have done any damage to my engine? Could I just put the cat back on and run the blitz system sefely with the standard ECU? Do I have a case against the guy who sold me the car? I think he even showed me the recipt for the power FC... and lastly, does anyone have  power fc going cheaply, for a 1996 fd?

Are you the guy who sold the Veilside kitted RX7?

No. This is the first RX7 i\'ve owned

mhhh.... I love those MANARAY wheels...

welcome to the club.
have fun with this beauty!

was actually looking at selling them, as they arn\'t real split rims

what year is it, does he have a receipt for the rebuild, who did it etc?
