Well, its my turn (FC inside)

Great find since the engine is re-built. That takes the hardest fix out of the way, for the price especially. I would like one in white as well and the typical body kit everyone uses will suffice. Good luck and hope you enjoy it.

(hand) I knew that didnt sound right....thanks Hank

ahem, S4 NA 13B rates at 140hp.... S5 NA is 160hp... figure somewhere in between since yours is still rev-limited to 7000rpm

congrats Taylor! I knew about it first! sorta. anyways, I picked up my motor today! it's still in the MSP now, but I'll have to take some pics of it tomorrow in the daylight. but for now I have the only turboed front piston engine, rear rotory engine car in the world. I got a good bit of stuff too.

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

did my first mod today, new batery terminals lol (peep)

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

still cant get the ****** started, got it going for a few second this AM w/ a jump from the MSP but as soon as i let off the clutch and let it come to an idle it died off....blugh, i might have to pull the plugs and check them out

Taylor, congrats man. Good find if you can get 'er started

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

i have a friend who has a smiliar RX7... she said when you flood it there are a few things you have to do to get it started again... what those things are... (dunno) I'd have to ask

kidding of course.. I would never, ever support removing a rotary engine from an RX car.

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

Dude, I want that EXACT FC. I've been looking around for a white on blue like that for awhile, and stil lcan't find one worth while. If I had that, I'd strip it down completely and turn it into a race car. Twin sequential turbos pushing out like 25psi and run the quarter in under 12. That's my goal, and one day I will do it in an FC.

Silly Hank, you know there's no rev limiter on an RX-7, just a friendly rev reminder, as in:
zuuuuuuuuuuuuuummm(beep)zuuum....Shift to 2nd..
..Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu(beep)zuuum....Shift to 3rd..
..Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu(beep)zuuum....Shift to 4th....look down, realize you're doing 100MPH, back off!

I miss my RX. <beep><beep><beep></beep></beep></beep>
