whats the street racing theme? is that stickers and huge exhaust or sleeper monster engine with no clues about it theme??

 

I think the theme is: "I just got my first car, what can I do that will impress the ladies in the 10th grade?"

Which type of RX-7 do you have? you are goign to find your goals much easier to reach if you were to start with a GSL-SE rather than a GSL, GS, or S model. The reason being is a GSL-SE starts off with fuel injection, a better drivetrain, stronger tranny, and a common bolt pattern and offset: 4x114.3 and roughly a 38-42 mm offset.

Good luck, and post some pictures as you go along.

Peace
Geoff

 

not true. what if all out speed was his goal? then he'd start out with a gs hardtop like myself
buuuuuttttttt if he wants to rice somethin out se is the way to go
gsl-se does not have stronger tranny, same exact tranny as 12a cars, just different 5th gear ratio
gsl-se? bah who needs em

 

I'm sorry for not knowing a thing about rx-7's.

My bad, he's right. No matter WHAT engine you want to put in your car, the 12a chassis, in itself, makes your car capable of at least 100 hp more than a gsl-se *rolls eyes*

I guess i'll go back to finishing my current rice project now.

I dont see any of you guys actually helping him out.

 

I love it LOL

 

What are you saying? 12a motors are faster than 13b motor?

 

Lets not start arguing here guys...There was a lot of sarcasim in both posts above...

Gamble was pointing out that some of the "differences" that Geoff had pointed out were inaccurate. He then made a comment about "GSL-SEs, who needs them" this was sarcasim which can be seen by the use of the "" face. He was joking. Geoff just kinda took it a little personally and the returned sarcasim.

Anyway, lets not start to argue now guys. After all, its Christmas .

Of course!! Where have you been? The 12A is the fastest 4 cylinder engine out there. The 13B is a "rotary" V-6, but the 12A is better.**

Actually, GSL-SE trannies also have a vent on the side of them that the 12A cars trannies don't have.
So, HA!, in your face!!**











**Just kidding. More of that weird humor.

 

Ok well first of all im not in tenth grade and why does it
matter how old i am and what my reason is for wanting to supe it up all i asked was for help not sarcasm or ruddnes but thanks to everyone else who provided me with the awsome links and gamble 302 my goal is speed lol. Call me dumb but i dont know wich type i dont know much about mazda rx7's or performance cars in general thats why i am asking questions thats the only way to learn.Also gamble how do i figure out wicht type of rx7 i have ? Its not a really good one but i plan on making it one lol cause i got money to spend on it but right now its a 4 cylindor lol and a automatic lol but i plan on changing that as far as i understand 84 mazda rx7's didnt originally come with auto transmission they came with speed but anyway the car was free and im happy with it and it is in ment condition well thats all later guys

-j.t.

 

Yeah unfortunetly there's a few auto's out there.

.

Lets all pronounce it slowly R.....O.....T....A......R.....Y......
But seriously man you got a rotary engine (2 triangles spinning, no pistons going boing boing) under your hood. One of the best reasons to own a 7. I forget off the top of my head some of the really good sites that explain how they work but I'm sure some of the other forum membes would be kind enough to put them up.

 

I see your from roseville.

which state?
if michigan then im right below you, if so maybe i can help.

 

here's an easy/obvious one....

www.howstuffworks.com/rotary-engine.htm

 

3 rotor!

 

hahah you guys are so cold blooded its called a spelling error and rx7 nut man you just need to find somthing else better to do that critisize people

 

And also i plan on dropping a six or an eight if possible in it and making some other major modifications in other words i really like rx7's so i am gonna put a good amount of money in to it to make it as sick as ****. so just because it is kinda lame right now doesnt mean its gonna be like that for ever duh lol

 

What's up man!!! Merry Christmas.

Hey, if you really like Rx7's, keep anything with a valve-train out of the engine bay. RX7's are rotary, otherwise it's just another muscle car with a body. And we all know that muscle cars handle like ****. The light rotary allows very close weight distrabution of the car. That's why they handle so well You can kiss that goodbye with a V8. Rotarys also really like to rev, and with the abscence of a valvetrain, they do so very quickly. They have more characteristics of a 2 cycle motor, but it works uniquely.

So please..... read, learn, aply, and enjoy! Once you learn the power of rotarys, it will change the way you look at performance.

Good luck and congrats on the car

 

well ****! i need some vents in my motor mounts then, maybe it'd make em stronger

as for your car's model, i think that gs was the lowest model that came with autos. not sure on that. the ebst way to tell is to describe it to us. if its got disc brakes in the rear its a gsl. if not it should be a gs.

best thing to do is research. and then research again like you are lookin for the hoy grail. you really shouldnt spend a dime on yer car til you figure out exactly what you want to do.

and come on now fellas, dont even start the v8 discussion. been done before. a little hint 84rexman, dont bring up that topic til yer serious about doing it lol. these guys go nuuuuuuuuts.

welcome to the club though. stick around, meet some people, learn some stuff, and waste some time

later
gamble

 

Welcome to hell....ahem.....I mean the jungle........ahem......I mean the forum....yea thats it....the forum. Dont get offended, they do this to all the new guys, kinda like a sport ya know! Just grow a thicker skin and ignore it. But you do have to be more specific with your questions/goals.

 

hey you'll learn quick most the rotor heads on here dont like it is you say anything about putting a 4,6 or 8 cylinder engine in a rx

they will jump all over you about the weight and handling and all that when they have never been in one and probly never seen one.

www.v8rx7.com if you want to talk about ***** ton motors without getting hammered on.

 

hahah ok i wont take it personal but like i said i dont knwo much about rx7's thats why i asked about the v8 but now i definitley wont put one in lol ill proly just stick to a 12a 4 cylander and i havnt started puting any money into it yet well not that much money lol just momo steering wheel footpedal's and ebrake handlelol
but anyways thanks for all the reply's' lets keep it comin

 

12A is NOT a 4 cylinder.


Rotary engines are NOT 4cylinders, 6 cylinders, 8 cylinders, 10 cylenders, whatever. All they do is beat all of them . Did you check out that link? www.howstuffworks.com/rotary-engine.htm

I REPEAT.... YOU DO NOT HAVE CYLINDERS.
