My rx-7 is done with cup holders! And a 3-rotor semi p-port N/a setup, STOCK SUBFRAME
Well, After 8 months of work, I have the Rx-7 running and pounding down the road. I havent posted anything on it before, wanted to wait until it was close to finished. It does feature cup holders I made, along with a custom stainless 321 header I fab'ed up, 3 to collector, 3.5" the header back, 3, 3.5 inch Borla mufflers, and and dolphin tail section I added on, always wanted one. Any I have a **** load of pics, and a sound video, will post them slowly, as its late at night right now. So enjoy, dont be too hard on me, it not totally finished yet, and the small p-ports arent hooked up yet, and capped off.
Quick info on the setup-
C-series 20b, S5 n/a rotors, race rotor bearings, dynamic balanced rotating assembly, street-port side ports, small semi-ports machined into rotor housings, race port exhaust. 10lbs flywheel, rps 6-puck clutch. full custom intake, machined flange welded on, 55mm throttle bodies from tweak-it, I hand made the air box, full custom garage made header/ exhaust, Microtech Lt-12 computer, stock injectors, Lots of cutom made stuff I did, anodizing of most aluminum, I welded onto the autopower cage, painted by me as well, custom made motor mounts, and ****...blah blah balh, RG coilovers, Kazz LSD, jimlab bushings, ect. ect. ect. Bride seat, omp wheel, takata harness, ahh, too much to list. Check the pics!!
The machinist that made the p-ports and adapter plate ect. does great work, can do p-ports for $250 per housing. Contact me for details, John Holt did the aluminum welding, John holt race cars.

OH yeah, the motor is using a entirely stock oil pan, not a cut in it, just relocated the oil drain, barely cut the stock subframe for a little clearance. Using a FD S6 front cover, no factory 20b CAS!! Just drilled some holes for the front cover in the oil pan, took 5-minutes. Had to cut off the top pressure feed on the steering rack, relocated it to the side, allowed much lower mounting. relocated the alternator to where the a/c was. that was it, no bump steer, ( Very important in a drift/ road race car) all factory placement. Am I the first?? who knows.

Great setup. That header looks fantastic. I'd like to hear some sound clips of it.
Where is the runner for the semi-p-port on the lower intake? Did you weld on some runners? I just didn't see any pics of how you did it.
You are certainly one up on the rest of us...especially with those custom fabbed cupholders

I made a little video of the car, like a minute and 30 seconds long, but i cant host it. I have a high quality version (350mb), and a low (very low) quality version (27mb), but both are too big for putfile. Anyone who can help me host this should PM me.

ah-ha! this video works! It's not of the highest quality, but you can hear the car and see it good enough. Also, the filming from inside the car sort of sucks, but when You're getting whipped back and forth like that in the stock leather seat with the stock seatbelt It's hard to keep the camera pointed straight. Oh well, enjoy!
