this guy was at Apple Blossoms Festival here in WA this year... i wasn't there, but i saw the pic... apparently he's some canadian guy... but his vert FB is very nice

 

There was one at the MD BBQ last month, with a 12A.

 

wth is that? a BBQ pit?

 

Wtf Is That ????

 

LOL I have no idea but it sure made a lot of noise. There were a lot of other "real" cars at the Maryland BBQ so I didn't get a chance to talk to the dude that brought it. Ask around he is probably on the forums either here or NP. Here is a shot of it from the front, the hood is opened forward:

 

I just wanna know what he does with it? It's no rock crawler, and theres not enough clearance for mud bogging nor the tires for it. What does it do other than get stares at carshows and sound loud? lol

 

Gets hot chicks to sit on it with little clothes....

...that was the SOUL purpose of making the thing

 

Correction: past their prime strippers with few clothes.

 

haha

Got a question for you all.... ?
with me hacking most of the RX-7 Stuff off.. what should i do to make it look like a FB again... i was thinking of keeping the pop up lights....

Ideas ?

 

Just spray paint RX7 on the side. It fools everyone:

 

That sounds like a personal slam. WTF?!

Whatever,...that's a pretty good pic of my car.

 

haha it is a good picture, it really looks good... quite the awesome car u got there

 

Sold the Roof Glass.

still got the back glass,
wheels
and Rear axle i want to sell
headlight motors.
seats maybe

i dunno... little stuff you all want ?
Gotta get some money for Tubing together.

 

Starting back up on this soon...

Side tracked. and lack of $$ kept me away for a little while.

I'll be hacking on it some more in the next few days.

 

hi,

looks like an interesting project.

I'm a newbie here, but do a lot of 4+4 - had to reply to poster saying suzuki transfer cases are weak and fail with sj engines so no good for more power. These cases hardly ever fail in normal use and people are running V6 and V8 engines on them so stock rotary torque really isnt going to kill it. I break a few suzukis here in UK and never sold a transfer case to someone whose broken one, just a few folk building up different ratio boxes to swap in.

obviously your using mazda box anyway but someone building SJ rotary might be put off ! (I'm building one now BTW)

 

Amen. I had my sami with 6:1 crawler gears on Dana 44s running 4.3L vortec and couldnt kill the transfer case if I tried. I only toasted the stock birfields that is why I changed to the Dana 44s. So if your toasting transfer cases you either 1. dont know what you are talking about or 2. dont know how to mount one and are binding it up. Not that any of this has sh#t to do with RX-7s
Just my .02

 

Long time coming.... But i got 115' of Steel Tube in the other day !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeeeeeeeeeeah

 

Ditto to Darkcyde. My brother got a Suzuki Sidekick sometime late last year, welded the rear end, ran 33x12.50" tires, and pretty much beat that thing all to **** on the trail, and not a thing broke. Well, the fuel filter got clogged, but that was the worst of it :P

However, he sold it before the end of the year and now the guy he sold it to [both my brother and the buyer are on the zuwharrie.com forums] is putting a 12A in it.

And as for the "1st gear is too low", that wouldn't matter with 2 tcases back to back, would it? In 4lo, it would have a fairly decent crawl ratio, so the 1st gear ratio wouldn't make much of a difference.

 

ok guys.... lets not beat this Zuk t-case thing to death.

im using a mazda TII bellhouse B2600 Case and tranny with a Zuk case behind that

 

Btt..... i need some encouragment on this.

i got the Toyota axles 2 months ago

have the wheels and tires.

all i need now is Time and effort.




i'll make time if i had the desire...... now i just need desire.

Anyone wanna help ?

or at least engourage me on. ???????

 

You just made me realize how pathetic PA is to brag about coal being our biggest profiting resource.

 

Hey I was on your site and you had pics of a burn out car you were building, what happened with it. any pics of the burnout?

 

Yeah it turned out REALLLLLLLLY WELL !!!!!!!!!!!!!

here are a few pics.

 

Any more progress on the 4x4? Sounds like a sweet project.

My first love has (and always will be) 4x4s. The rx7 is just a cheap fun daily driver for me, since my truck isn't really street legal anymore.

 

not much progress lately..... ive been stalling.

the GF doesnt like me spending money on stupid projects like this.
