Evo R side blades vs. Rx-7 (fd) side blades

SCOOBY JOE · 05-27-2013, 01:07 PM

I was wondering if the Evo R side blades were replicas of the Rx-7 side blades. My friend with his FD rolled thru my house and they look very similar to the Evo R ones. Are they?

I believe they make them for RX7 as well.

I've also seen RX7 with side blades.

The rx-7 blades are shorter, but probably the same style.

I've heard that the RX7 blades were the ones used for one of the 370Z's that ran them and kept the splashguards. Can anyone verify this?

Check the Evo R thread on the blades they are shorter than what they are Supposed be on the 370zs. If that's the case I rather pick up Rx-7 blades becuase they are way cheaper.

I measured the Rx-7 side blades and it looks like you would need the splash guard to pull it off nice.

I think I know witch one your taking about but I just seen the slide blades on this Z at Wekfest and his blades came up short too.

I think vendor areojacket can get you the VIP side blades.. they look different then the evo-r ones I think.

simota1 · 05-27-2013, 03:08 PM

vip status was the first to put the fd blades on his 370z..... since its shorter you have to run the mud flaps....

I think the S2k guys use the RX7 side blades too.

Jerggy13 · 05-27-2013, 08:58 PM
