Here is a shot of the coils, I removed the battery tray and they fit just fine.

 

And some shot of my 7 in the new workshop.

 

New din plate for my radio and gauges

 

wow lookin good

 

Got home from a work trip today and the UPS guy made afew deliveries, it is like christmas...



These are the Borla mufflers for the SE, when the motor is in I'll take it to a manderal bender and finish off the rest.

 

Also got a ignition box,

 

New rad came that I think is the wrong one,

 

Also a steering wheel, was free and I not sure if I like it.

 

and I did some work today, mounted the new fuel pump and press reg.

 

nope, its the right one.

 

UPS brought my new RB 3in down pipe.

I am just itching to get my motor back, I have just about everything I need to get it running.

This weekend I will be installing new slotted, drilled, and zinc coated brake rotors. I 'll post more pics on sunday night.

 

I like that steering Wheel, it looks awesome, if you decide you dont like it let me know. Nice project!!!

 

UPDATE


I got some work done today.

I had to fab a bracket to mount my Jacobs ingnition box.

 

Also installed the boost gauge, and air/fuel ratio gauge. The fuel pressure will be here next week. I bought Auto Meter carbon fiber face ultra-lite series.

 

And finished stripping down the front brakes, getting ready to install the new rototrs and pads.

 

Man this is a picky crowd. I am doing the dream TII conversion and no replies to my pics?????????????

 

so far so good. I wish I had the fundage to do a project like this. Cars are a great hobby just make sure you keep the car and treasure it after you are done with it. Some get sick of it over time and then are forced to sell it for a fraction of what they have put into it only to regret selling it.

Keep up the good work and keep posting the pictures as you progress through your project!

 

Looking very nice!! keep us updated.. take more pics. Im lovin it!!

 

There never was a Jspec TII engine, the 13B Turbo was the same regardless of the market.

Why there are so many imported second hand turbo engines is as that only turbo engined Gen 2 cars were sold in Japan. As they are scrapped many of the engines are exported at a cheap price to the USA and used to up date gen 1s. In Japan there is simply no demand for gen 1s unless they are a genuine 12A T and that is Jspec as they were only sold in Japan.

 

THe project is looking good . Don't stop posting pics . I like the progress and upgrading your making . It's nice to see people giving new life to such classics (is 20yr old cars considered classsic ??? if so I must be a antique LOL)

Keep up the good work

Very nice, I love TII FBs, that will be one fast bastard. I live down here by Venice and I know there is a bunch more rx7's around here. Every other week a bunch 7's meet up in Tampa, you will have to attend sometime. Very nice ride, can't wait to see it with the motor in.

 

Got just afew things done today,

Intsalled the new rotors today.

They are Brembo slotted, drilled, and zinc coated.

Sorry for the crap pictures I forgot to take my camera to the shop and had to use the camera phone.

 

Also stripped off the 20 year old window tint. I used tint remover I bought from Advance auto parts and this stuff kicks ***!! I was dreading doing this but after soaking it for 30mins covered with a plastic sheet, it all pulled off in one big sheet.

 

Fitted up the new radiator today. I took the three pieces that mount the rad and had them stripped with a glass bead blaster and repainted.

 

Got the fuel pressure gauge in as well.
