Need help choosing a hood
#26
If you want an excellent quality MS-style hood we have them available once again for both the FD and FC. Attila and I sold them for several years a while back. If you search Atihun, or Atihardt there are lots of reviews, and as far as I know all are excellent. The initial investment in our hoods will easily be saved in reduced paint and body, not to mention superior materials and construction.
Here is one of our FC hoods that was at sevenstock:
And an FD one:
Before Mazdaspeed discontinued this hood it was extensively wind tunnel tested to create the low pressure zone in the cowl. I don't know of any other rx-7 hood with that investment in to the design. When you are in the car you can actually see the heat pouring out of the vents!

i recently finished the install of my V-Mount setup, but now i need the right hood for it work properly...
i put a pic of my setup and the hood i thought would work
i also thought about cutting and doing some custom work to stock hood but i'm not sure how that will turn out

Otherwise you'll need a hood that has a wide rectengular hole around v-mount intercooler area which is functional but ugly imo.

BTW, there is a GB being setup for the Mazdaspeed R-Spec style hoods (a variation on the original Mazdaspeed hood posted earlier):

I used to have one of those on my first FD. The fitment was perfect and it still used the stock hood latch system. I'd probably get another one in fiberglass if you guys start producing.

I apologize for our lack of communication. Running a niche market business is kind of an on or off situation. Either you are all in and spending a lot of time with it, or you aren't doing it at all. After a short period where life put other priorities first we are making products available again. Soon we hope to have a vendor section here on the forum. Once again we are all in. All our products are available once again through Ronin Speedworks. We are adding new stuff every couple weeks as well.
