I bought a brand new fan shroud from Jeff Watson last year but I can't remember 
right off the price. It didn't seem unreasonable like maybe ~ $75?

So.. I was goofing around under the hood today. The car had a rough idle like i 
have been describing. When i closed the hood the idle would drop and rise drop 
and rise and continue but never dies out. When I open the hood it normals out. 
Idle still a little rough but it stops rising and dropping. I repeatedly opened 
and closed the hood for my own amusement for a while then i left it open and sat 
there scratching my head. I am missing the fan shroud... Could it be that the 
fan is pulling air away from the filter and causing the tempermental Lexuz AFM 
to throw off the idle? I was amazed how opening and closing the hood was making 
such a huge difference.

Which brings me to this... Does someone have a spare fan shround that is in 
great condition that they would be willing to sell to me for cheap. Or does 
anyone have the electric fan setup they would be willing to sell?

  Remember it has to come form this RX-7.  This information was found on the 
Tech Center of our beloved www.supras.com writen by: Adam Hingten.

  "This injector was used in only one OEM application that I know of: the first 
half of the '87 model year of the Mazda RX-7 Turbo II. This makes this injector 
a little hard to find. After the first half of the '87 model year, Mazda moved 
to high impedance 550s for the Turbo II and high impedance 450cc for the NA 
RX-7."

  I might be able to source some rx-7 injectors for you as most of my friends 
drive them and a couple work on them.
