Take the top off of one of your stock FPR's and put an adjustable top that is made for a Honda on it. B&M makes them, they are about $50 from Summit racing.

i would like more detail on this? How is a Honda adaptor going to fit? Have you tried this yourself? I'm currently reading on zilvia about a DSM FPR adaptor that will fit nissan regulators, but nothing about the RX-7...

The part number for the B&M part is #46057. It fits the '88-'00 Civic and '90-'00 Integra and NSX.

I have two race cars running these. You just grind the largest diameter rim of metal off to remove the non-adjustable cap. The metal is pretty thin but its good to keep it cool by dunking it in some water as you go, there is a rubber diaphragm that is inside that holds the fuel in. Just gently spin the FPR as you grind and peel the top off when you can. You will see when you get through the first layer of metal. The B&M top just clamps on the now "headless" stock unit with 4 allen screws and a C type lower piece.

Turn the top screw to set your pressure and then lock it down with the locking nut.
