Don't forget this issue of Grassroots Motorsports Mag!

Thats right! This months Grassroots Motorsports features a first generation RX7.

They wrote a quick write up on how to install MegaSquirt!

When I get a chance, I will scan and upload the article.

Chris

Thats my car that the DIYAutoTune guys installed the megasquirt on. Thanks for the kind comments. The extra 20hp really woke the car up. We are hoping for about 10-15 more hp with an S5 intake and some more tuning. I will also be getting the 5th & 6th ports hooked back up.

The next issue will have a first generation buyers guide.

Just to clarify "this issue..." - it's the August edition - specifically Volume 26. Excited to see the first gen buyers guide.

For those who do not know Hada is a staff member of GRM, otherwise known as Greg, g'day mate....

I was present when they installed this system, it went down really nice only one wiring snafoo which was solved and the car started and ran nicely in a tent.

The current issue is the August issue. The next issue is the October issue will be out around the end of August. As far as I know the buyers guide made it in.

Hi Steve,

Actually I just left GRM a week or so ago after being offered a position at my old company (insurance claims) but I am still friendly and somewhat involved with them. GRM will have a little write up on ReSpeeds steering rack once I get it installed.
