Mmmmmm.....purdy. You're a damn tease.
|
hey JKL, can you measure how separated the stands are?
|
Game on. Underside pics would be cool to see also. Hope your prototypes make the grade and are ready for production.
Hard to tell, but if the endplates of the Carbon wing are also CF composite, is it possible to upgrade the FRP wing to include the CF plates? Cheers, |
and my happy dance is officially in full swing!!!!!!!
sooooooo pretty!!! |
FC update please... also if you could provide approx. dimensions of just the wing please.
|
integlspwr, yes, we will supply more dimension data once our first batch wings come in around mid August.
cone_crushr, yes, everything on the CF wing is made of CF, including the mounting flaps and the end plates. Yes, we can put in a special order for you to get you some CF end plates for your FRP wings at additional cost. But it might be subjected to some extra wait time. Just FYI, there are no noticeable performance differences between FRP and CF end plates. RacerJason, the approx. length is about 1650 mm. Been trying to find a good FC candidate to fit the prototype brackets. A friend of mine actually got an FC laying around for test fit but he does not have time to come to us. So I will have to arrange a time to meet him very soon. Again, we apologize for the delay on the FC wings. The bracket templates we got only supplied us with an approximate design dimension and hopefully the bottom dimensions would work well after being mounted. I will have to modify a lot on the current design to include the correct dimension and mounting holes for our wing. Then, the machine shop does not like the idea of us keep making one pair of sample brackets so we are taking extra precaution this time to make sure all the dimensions will work before we pass the CAD files to them. As far as FD wings, we will be shipping them out around mid August since the FD brackets have been verified and tested. |
Excellent!!
|
:fruit: The wings are coming, the wings are coming........
|
Happy happy joy joy, happy happy joy joy...happy happy joy joy, happy happy joy joy...HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY JOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
FD wings now ready to ship! For those of you who have sent a deposit for FD wing, please contact us regarding the remaining payment and shipping arrangement.
For FC guys, we apologize for the delay but we are still working on the brackets since we still have not gotten a test car yet. The car we hope to use is still currently in the body shop so if anyone who might have time to let us use the car for test fitting, please email us. Thanks! |
I got mine today. It looks great! Thanks Kevin!
|
Left vmail message - call me back to finalize.
Beast |
You have a PM Kevin
|
im so broke... hate myself for not saving up for this right now :@
|
What is middle width (I guess better put, depth length) on the spoiler?
|
payment sent, now just wait for the FC mounts to be ready..... :)
|
|
^^ Yes, all those would be perfect.
|
Is anyone else having trouble reaching Kevin to finalize their transaction?

I guess I'm just drawing the short end of the stick - just called their number and got one of Kevin's business partners. Sounds like they are in the middle of a move. Just tried him via email again.
Some day my wing will come <sung to the tune of Some Day My Prince Will Come>........ |

Not 'exact' measurements, but this should be close enough: A: 66" B: Center 12.5", sides 9.125" C: D: 46" E: 9.5" F: 10.5" G: 6" I don't have the wing mounted for 'C', however here are the measurements for the mount heights (which should give you and idea): Rear: 10" Front: 7.125" |
I still have not recieved my wing. I have sent in final payment with shipping.
No reply to my e-mail.... Hope to see it soon. |

$50 discount for wings sold without mounts. Retail prices of the wing is $750 (FRP) and $1000 (CF). RX7Club members can get a limited time exclusive discount of 10%. So for orders without mounts, the prices are $625 (FRP) and $850 (CF) Shipping is $75 to all continental US addresses. By the way, I don't want wing mounts with my wing thanks. |

My wing came in damaged:icon_tdow That sucks!! I am still waiting to see what happens.Kevin is talking to the shipper to get it resolved.Has been a few weeks and nothing yet.
|
Any updates??
|
Still unemployed, but I was able to sell off my remaining stocks. I would like to update my shipping address (if I even gave you one), and submit my final payment. Any updates on the FC test fit?
|
Payment made, wing on way
Kevin is back from his trip - final payment made, wing is on it's way via FedEx.
Beast |
Whats the deal with the FC mounts? Did they get done? I've already made my full payment, just waiting to hear about the FC deal....
|
As are a number of us. nos fx we should ship ours together to save $.
|
Got contacted by Kevin, final payment sent.

Got my wing, questions on mounting
Gang, I got my wing, all intact. Aside from a couple of small blems in the resin finish on one of the wing end plates, it's perfect. Hell, it's going on a race car so who cares, right? I give it 99/100 so far.
Thank you Kevin for filling this niche market. Now I am thinking about the mounting process. Near as I can tell based on a quick review on the mounts, the brackets are to be connected to the hatch by only two small machine thread screws each, probably #6 Fine in size. That seems very small to me, and the stress on the sheet metal, esp if the wing is bumped from the side (force comes on the end plate, on the same line as the wing), seems like it could be very concentracted and the metal could tear. if the force comes perpendicular to the wing (leading or trailing edge), then the brackets would distribute the force along their entire length and that wouldn't be as bad, but the screws themselves still seem small..... Am I missing something? Is the stress that the wing is under at 145mph not that great? Are others making mounting plates? Advice/input welcome. |

Check this out...Thanks Chris |
Got the wing! Everything but the wing mounts look awesome. The fiberglass mounting plates are little wavy! But no worries, I will be removing them and making new one's that are spaced to 1210 mm.
|
Still seeking update on FC wings. Have we been forgotten? Pleeeze someone get an FC over to JKL for a test fitment on the Al wing mounts?
|
Hey Kevin, I sent you a few e-mails. Fed Ex said that you recieved the damaged wing back. I have not heard back from you about shipping me a new one back.Anyone been in touch with Kevin?
