Ok you guys, i'm new to the rotary engine. It really sucks cuz i know jack.. anyways i have a few questions for yall. If they seem retarted refer to what i just said... anyways... I have Antifreeze comming out of the mid section of my exhaust, don't ask me why. The engine does not run, that might be the cause. Also, im trying to take the engine out and someone mentioned that they have hooks on the engine, but i cant seem to find them, any clue of what he is talking about? Another key thing, im trying to find some place that sells brake kits, i need all new brakes(cables, pads, etc...) i cant find it and i need it. This is my project car for school and im trying to make it come out best as possible. If you have any helping tips on what i should do let me know please. What i have done to it so far... gutted out the whole interior except for dash, in the process of taking the engine out, working on putting my racing seats in.... im also trying to get as many horses out of it as i can. The car has a muffler on it and i just bought racing beat headers. Let me know what else i can do to get some more horses. keep in mind though that i am only 17 and i only have a min wage paying job so i can only afford so much, most important stuff first would be appreciated. Thanks Josh.

P.S. I will try and get my friend clean85owner who happens to live across the street from me, to get some pics of the car so far.

 

That motor is caput, dude. When are you getting the new one from Kenny? There is coolant coming out of the exhaust because you blew a coolant seal in the block, it leaked into the motor, and came out of your exhaust ports. The fact that you have an exhaust leak really helped us, if you think about. Although, I'm sure we would have found out about when we jacked up the car anyways. Heh.

*Makes sound of water dripping onto the ground*
Me: "What's that sound, dude?"
Josh (southernrunner): "I dunno, liquid is pouring out of something, though."
*Blank stare*
Me: "I think we found the rest of your coolant."
*Chuckles*

Good times, good times. No more 2 am work nights on that thing anymore, though. That **** wears me out too much. Heh.


I'll try to work on the pictures tonight, dude. I have quite a few shoots that I need to go through editing, but I'll try and get yours done as soon as possible.

On another note: DUDE! You should have come with us today. My dad and I took his STi down this rock road today and were gettin' squirrley in it and stuff. It's incredible how quickly that thing can accelerate on gravel. We couldn't get too wild, though; a canal on one side and trees on the other kind of forced us to take it easy. The car was breaking them loose from a slow third gear roll, though!

 

My thoughts as to why you cant get help from clean85owner dude. Dont understand why you had to post this thread when you guys clearly got this under control. And cant you just call on the phone or run across the treet to talk to him.

 

i also posted this for other peoples opinions as to what i need to do to my car, and what tips they can give me. he just happens to tell my some stuff just to make sure i get it in my head.

 

Trust me, dude. We need all the help we can get. Haha.

 

Anybody, any thoughts, really can use as much help as possible to get me started off.

 

Dont buy anything more until you figure out what you needa do with the motor. I'm interested to hear how this goes though..

I'm guessing the motor turns over, so there may actually be some bits in there that are still usable... unless its all rusted.

Edit: And stick with it. You will eventually get there :-)

 

get that engine and fast! that or start filling your radiator with gasoline
