I am tired of hearing people whine about this. I changed mine a while ago and it was a piece of cake - ten times easier than doing ANYTHING on my RX-7.

Exactly what I was going to say, the heater core is basically another radiator with a fan. If you don't turn it on, the engine temp will rise quicker as well. Be careful though because if you blow really hot air on an icy window it can crack. I personally think it is best to turn it on when...

There was a writeup in this tread where they used a different power source which is independent of the light switch. In that case the fog lights WILL NOT turn off when you turn the lights off. If you follow my writeup, the fogs will turn off when you turn the lights completely off.

That's too bad, but I know how you feel. I have a 67 Nova that ate a big block this summer. One of the roller lifters snapped in half and the cam pushed the pieces through the water jacket. At least it happened while I was at low RPM (I heard it and killed the engine) and didn't damage...

Yeah, Kimi lost because of unreliability and bad luck, but I think McLaren could have still won the constructors even with their reliability problems. JPM made too many bonehead mistakes. That being said, it was a great season (even though I am a McLaren fan). The Japanese GP was INCREDIBLE -...

Not true - Schumacher won the USGP. I know, I know, only 6 cars competed, but he still won. Don't get me wrong - I am not a Schumacher (or Ferrari) fan. It was the best season of F1 in recent years - I was a little bummed that McLaren didn't win the constructors, they clearly had the fastest...

The email seemed a little bit "canned". There was a bunch of other stuff in the email that was not even related to my question. I wonder if they have been getting a lot of questions about top gear or other shows and set up some sort of auto reply. Oh well, at least it looks like it will be...

I got this reply to my complaint to the discovery channel: The "Top Gear" show was not "taken off the air" but rather ran its pattern. It is being revamped for a U.S. audience and will return later this year. Look for it in December. Sincerely, Barbara Viewer Relations Discovery Networks Maybe...

Where do you get the brit versions?

Well, it looks like the discovery channel has cancelled Top Gear. That was one of my favorite shows. I am sure that some of you watched it too. Yes, I know it was a hacked up version of the British show, but it was still a great show. Anyway, I don't know if it would do any good but you can...

This thread has tons of pics too: http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=463444

I am sure the wiring will be quite a bit different. I also did this mod on my 02 Tribute and 94 RX-7 and they were all VERY different. For example, the tribute did not require the extra grounding of the relay to keep the fogs on with the brights (the power source disabled the fogs instead of...

I didn't take any pics. I thought my instructions were clear enough without them. It is really not that difficult. If you want the fogs to come on independent of the parking lights you will have to use a dedicated power source instead of the green/black wire. I think somebody posted...

My wife had a 98 prelude. The tranny kept giving us problems (stupid automatics) and she was tired of having no room for anything or anyone. The P5 is a perfect fit for our lifestyle. Having driven both I can honestly say that the P5 is 10X more fun to drive. The prelude had more power, but...

Yeah, I agree - it was not really that bad. I guess I am used to working on my RX-7 which is 10X harder to do just about everything. Makes working on the P5 a piece of cake.
