Mazda RX7 1 gen 13B
NR8 - this job was done by a group of friends, who are not professional painters. The mechanic was the only professional - Advance Timing mechanic shop. The gear box and cross member is also painted.
We recorded the process from start to finish. U would notice there are no electrical wires showing, with the exception of the plug wires.
Razkal - the guagues are tachs, both of them are working. All brake lines are stainless steel custom done locally.

great work on the 1st gen!
I'm not a big fan of the different engine bay paint colour but the execution is great!
I wish other 'professionals' can take example from you guys!

Mazda rx7 1st gen
nr8....
We needed to fill two holes, in the rx7 1st gen these were the original holes for the coils, they were replaced with electronic coils and hidden. Tachs were a perfect fit. Techs are fully functional with working lights.

Tipster. car looking great, didnt know so much was done. Are those AEM pencil coils or Denso, not hearing good things about the AEM pencils, heard they are blowing non-stop. Thinking about going Denso or Weapon X CDi Coils.
