Lucky bastard! I havent been able to top 23 on the highway, is that with the bone stock one?

 

Well i have 2 7's, I guess you could call them jekl & hyde. I like one as much as the other. One is a 85 SE, camden blown, streetported, 850 double pumper and a magnaflow exhaust, rb springs and street/strip clutch. This is a fun and aggressive car to drive, very fast for what it is. The other is a strip model (no sunroof or even hatch release and has roll up windows) 85 gs with a stock 12a right down to the functioning air pump and rats nest (lady owned last 7 years). Nice pleasant cloth interior, nice stereo, extremely quiet muffler and presilencer with no cats, just a nice smooth pleasure to drive. I have a T3 turbo in the garage waiting for the base 7 in the spring, it's be one of the cheapest blow throughs done using a carb and modified stock intake to accept an Edelbrock.

 

Mperformance- I'm 18 right now but have been around these cars since i was about four. The reason i even started liking cars was when i first saw a this car that my dad had just finished; a tube-chassis GT-2 bridge ported 12a second gen road race car come to life and pull out of the shop and leave 2 10 inch wide patches of rubber through three gears of a sequential tranny down this small access road. Before that i thought tube chassis' were just really neat jungle gyms. believe me, the turbo route would be awsome, espesially if you add a 13b or 20b to the mix! and a PP on the street is too obnoxious even for me on the street (although i do have 3 motors worth of PP aluminum housings in my garage that my dad taught me how to make). But i was just curious as to times, im not going for a record at the strip or anything, im a roadracer and always will be, i just wanted a point of reference.

P.S. sorry for the long post, i was bored

 

Slayerx7- I drive like a total *** on my setup and take it to 5 digit shift points all the time cause it keeps pulling, and i have about 18-20 thousand miles on it like this

 

cool so you are hooked on rotaries...make sure you stick to it... LOL!!! I'm 33 and I have had from Benz to lexus, trucks and sedans...but I always keep an FB stashed somewhere hahahhaa

 

Yep. It averaged that on the highway including going up and down 2 mountains...twice LOL. Pulled 80 the whole way up one mountain until I cought up to slower traffic and had to slow down.

 

you guys are lucky i am only seeing about 16 mpg and thats a mix of highway and city everyday. I have 12a with a dellorto that needs a rebuild and the front rotor in my car has compression on only two apex seals, the only reason i am still driving it is because its my daily driver and i dont have the money just yet to have it rebuild
P.S. a little more info my car definately sees over 7000 probably at least 50% of the time i drive it.

 

I had a stock port 12a with a Holley 600 run in an 1/8th mile 9.5 secs. I now am breaking in my 12a street port, with a Holley 450.

 

any 1 want 2 discuss the ignition systems

 

Not here, just start your own thread on the subject and you will generate a lot of discussion.

 

Hee Hee Hee....thats not nice! however he's right or do a search and you'll find tons of threads on ignitions!

 

I know this is an old thread but i figured this is the best place to post this. I FINALLY didn't break an axle while launching hard!

Results: 14.5 @ 93
Almost all of it was in the 60'
Iwent from 2.2ish to a 1.93!

 

Ya, Jesus padilla is insanely fast(not him,but his car). I got to talk to him with my friend. He's a nice guy.
