http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=724510

I\'m going to buy one just to tidy up under the Upper inlet whilst i\'m doing the single upgrade but i\'m just intrested how well they fit etc??

BTW there is a new Group buy going on (on the link above) so if you fancy one you need to put your name down on the list ;)

Ok, i see what you mean, just had a look at mine and i\'m not 100% sure if it will fit but if it don\'t i\'ll just move it some where else :)

ruffryder

had a look at this hve asked the seller if it will work for rhd - but i guess your right we could jus move it somwhere else - im not sure if i should get it with the cables or not ?

Well i\'ve asked what the shipping cost would be and he\'s replied that it would be an extra $15 which is not to bad if you ask me.

I\'ve just PM\'d him to ask the RHD question so we\'ll see what he says.

Have to say though i\'m still going to get one and if it don\'t fit?? Well it goes some where else it looks a compact unit and with that fitted i will have no use for the Rats nest Frame, so it will look allot better under the Inlet :)

hmmm...  the nest plate bolts onto your oil filler so you`ll just need to make a wee bracket to replace it, unless my 97`s different?
Nice idear :) group buy? lol

I thought the oil filler was bolted to an Insert pressed into the center plate? or is it different on the later fd\'s? (mine being a 94)

interloper393

well on mine the coil pack plate and nest (being i have the black box) is all one plate which the oil neck bolts to this plate aswell bud..

Blimey, thats alot of cash for a bracket ! Could investigate making them over here. Don\'t want to sound like a vendor though (have full access to laser, press brakes and design).

I\'ve been weighing up the position of abs pump to points in the shell (like the mount for the ASB in the strut tower and the top stut nuts) and i would say its close, i really need to get one and check it out first hand.

Grizzly

Has any one got a pic of the same position?
