I labelled this post as Hand Crafted, since this battery box isn’t exactly perfect. It does look hand made, and mostly because my tiny 18″ bench brake for sheet metal. I used 5052 aluminum so it bent up pretty well without any cracks. This will get mounted in a vertical position to the bulkhead in the passenger seat area. Then the wiring will begin!
I have been working on some of the aero design in 3D for the FC, should have some nicer renders of the updated fenders and aero soon. Here are a couple of the older renders I did.
Dave and I worked really hard on developing some parts for the rear subframe assembly of the FC RX-7′s. Stabilizer bars, front differential mounts, upper diff mounts, DTSS eliminators, rear control arm bushings, camber bar, and soon camber adjusters for the rear control arms.
Dave and I are working on a few new products that will be available for the 2nd generation RX-7. Check them out on our company website here.

With the wheels on it is finally starting to feel like a real car! Still completely in love with multi-piece BBS RS wheels. 20lbs at 17″x11.5″!
