But the RX7 hub fit onto an MX fine in your case? If you don't want that hub I'd love to take if off of your hands

Keep us posted here, it seems like RX7 quick release hubs cost less then MX3 quick release kits, not to mention much easier to come by.

just to let you know, besides the hub, the actual quick release hubs are universal (besides grant style wheels since those are 5 or 7 bolt)
anyways, i'm excited to see the wheel installed

You sir, have just made my day. But I don't know if I want to get my steering wheel any closer to me, I'm pretty happy with my positioning. Hmmm...

I havent' seen those kind of gauges before. Do they glow in the dark? Or do they behave just like the stock ones?
