    Tibbett's SCCA RX-7 Race Car Build/Log Thread

    UPDATE. Decided to run the car this past weekend at the Chin Motorsports track day (I just ran Sunday) at Road Atlanta to get things sorted for the American Road Race of Champions in a month. The event didn't go as well as I would have hoped. The car had a horrible sputtering issue which ended...

    Should I?

    So I'm considering a Mazda6 wagon and am looking for some input from owners. The car is an automatic with the sport shift option thing which in most are I drive with that isn't much different than automatic. I'm looking for a practical car that is fun to drive when I want to have some fun but...

    Wagon...Diesel...Questions.

    We're looking at a new car and are considering a Mazda3 or Mazda6. Will the US be getting any diesel models or a wagon any time soon? I love the 6, but would prefer it in wagon form so as of right now I'm leaning towards the 3, but am still keeping my options open.

    UPDATE. What a weekend. Before leaving the shop and going to the track I ran into a small issue, my kill switch went bad causing the car to cut on and off, luckily I caught it early, sourced a new one from a vendor at the track, and got it back together quickly. We took the car to the track...

    Tibbett's SCCA RX-7 Race Car Build/Log Thread

    Yeah I can't wait to pull apart the bad transmission and see what went wrong. I have another that's good as well as a spare but have to reseal it. UPDATE. Got the car on the ground, got it running, and drove it! Easier said than done though. It did not want to start, we had fuel (too much) and...

    Tibbett's SCCA RX-7 Race Car Build/Log Thread

    UPDATE. After a long winter I'll finally have the car back out on track this weekend. Fingers crossed nothing happens.

    Tibbett's SCCA RX-7 Race Car Build/Log Thread

    UPDATE. Got the new seat in. I LOVE it. I'm still debating whether to buy a cover or buy a lot of padding and sort of make it fit me. Price wise would be about the same. Either way, here it is. MUCH better than the Kirkey that was in there and MUCH more protective feeling.

    Post Pics of your RX-7

    Thanks, it was a "Pro7" car from what I was told, I run it in IT7 now here in the SE though. I guess the difference between Spec7 and Pro7 was the exhaust? It has an unknown race header back to I forget what muffler that is you see but it's actually pretty quiet so I'm going to ditch it this...
