As you can see my install is finnaly back underway. IT has been on hold for a few months while I waited for my Un orthodox/ Tilton Dual Disk clutch. I wish i had my camera when i was assembling the clutch. They did a nice job. I like the new slave cylinder/ Release bearing combo. It fits right over the input shaft, and from what I can tell it is only a little firmer petal feel than stock.

IronMdnX, did you use the Pettit subframe and spindles? The motor looks really good in there, I'll have mine in as soon as my fab guy finishes my subframe, in about a month

It is a Pettit Subframe & spindles, I bought them from Red-RX7 A while ago before he sent his car to MVA. Everything fits well so far. Unfortunatly I just found out I am headed to Scottsdale, AZ for a couple weeks on Sun. I was hoping to have it rinning with in a week or two.

Stock turbos for a while, I need to buy a house. I have the Greddy 3 row intercooler, but the way greddy mounts the radiator it hits the main pully. I'm fabbing up some new mounting brackets to mount it more vertical. Every thing is going smooth. I bought a used downpipe from Derrick (3rotorrx7.com) after he went single. I'll put some more pics up on Sat.

No I didn't. Sorry I bought the radiator,top&bottom cover trays,throttle body attachment, and fans. I forgot about the swaybar spacers. Oh well! By the way, I don't know how to display pics. Need some help there. How funny we could help each other.


Oh I forgot to ask, why didn't you buy the twin turbo outlet pipes from Derrick "3rotorrx7.com" as well? I may purchase them myself.

I just test fitted the swaybar, I didn't have any interferance issues with the tie rods. I didn't know Derrick was selling the turbo pipes, I just emailed him a long time ago about the DP, I figured i would make my own pipes. I might contact him to see what he wants for them. I finished installing the new oil coolers & oil thermostat. I have the radiator positioned now where i want it, all i need to do is make new lower brackets and mount the A/C condenser on it. Fuel system is about finished I just need to pick up a couple more AN fittings. Watter Pump will be here Mon., I wish i could get out of going to AZ for the 2 weeks.
