The Mazda RX7 the best of the best

by David Allen on Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

The RX7 from Mazda is a beauty and that is without any work being done on it, the car absolutely oozes style, design and performance all one perfect package.

 

This is car that really put Mazda on the map and suddenly this was the car that everyone wanted, but could not afford the price of the car or the insurance.

However, we are older now, and these cars are affordable and the insurance has become slightly more reasonable.

 

This car is the result of the Vincent Wong of iForged, he loves the Mazda RX7 and it shows in the finished piece, where even the colours blend in perfect harmony, let alone the rest of this beautiful machine.

 

Of course to the average person in the street, this car is not going to register as being an RX7, the work that has been done on it is just too brilliant that it has taken to original car and made into something complete new and cool, in fact this car could we be mistaken as being a new design.

Product Description

OBX High Performance Spark Plug Wires are the highest quality and thickest wires available in today’s market. Six individually wrapped 18 strand copper cores are wrapped with a stainless steel conductor to ensure greater ignition current conduction and longer spark duration. The core is covered with a special synthetic dielectric compound that prevents all electrical leakage and arcing of the current due to microscopic cracks when aging occurs. Extra heavy duty glass braid is woven around to withstand extreme wire stretch from pulling. All of this is coated with an outer sheeting of silicone double wrap measuring 10.3 mm in thickness to withstand extreme engine bay temperatures.

OBX wires are compatible with all types and brands of spark plugs on the market today to increase voltage output and provide maximum combustion on today’s high performance engines. These wires have been dyno tested to significantly increase horsepower and torque on both stock and modified engines over OEM ignition wires.
