insenothepunk 10-29-08 07:01 PM

Please oh please do. Otherwise it will be worn out and I will have to sell you the one I have sitting around. :lol:

shadow7 10-29-08 09:54 PM

you might also want to move your front plate somewhere where it wont obstruct your grill. you want as much air to flow through that radiator.

ecko 10-29-08 10:17 PM

enjoy your new money pit :lol: nice looking car tho.

the front license plate looks good to the side, refer to my pictures pn my sig.

the AFM is your Air Flow Meter and its the metal boxy looking piece that is connected directly to your air filter. it must be sitting flat. refer to the picture i have enclosed

Ahhh good to know Ill get on that when I get my car back from the shop..

Im getting the Front cover replaced on the motor because of a crack in it and A gasket sticking out causing a big oil leak. Should have it back soon.

Found a good shop that Atkins Rotary reccommended

Nytrate 11-10-08 12:06 AM

111.9@RWHP at 6,000RPM 115.5 ft/lbs

Second Run:

The car needs some work.. it had a bad rebuild...

87 t-66 11-10-08 08:59 AM

man, those tails are busted to hell

NoPistons! 11-10-08 09:05 AM

Jesus christ....this is worse than honda tech.

Unless somebody's car is completely flawless or rediculous fast, they catch shit.

FTR, his reverse lense is cracked. I'm sure he likes them though.

Nytrate 11-10-08 11:11 AM

Yeah. They are not in the best of shape... But I got them cheap for what S5 lights go for and I think they still look good.

airquin23 11-10-08 11:41 AM

Lookin good. keep us updated...

Nytrate 11-10-08 04:52 PM

diffnaly i will keep you guys updated.. The car is comming a long nice. I figured out why i dynoed so low is that my 5th and 6th ports arnt working right so i got to find out how to fix that problem and it should dyno at more HP

Alex Rodriguez 11-10-08 06:18 PM

yeah n/a with headers and intake i have seem them pull 145-155 whp

so check and see whats the problem if not do a quick search on the forum for HOW TO on 5th and 6th port wire open...or better yet just remove the sleeves and cap the lower intake manifold


And guys take it easy on the kid hes off to a good start....read a couple post up where someone corrected him on his afm , and he said he was going to correct that. so he is learning quick.

no pistons your car isnt no where near this kids car condition so i would ramp on his tailights....lol OWNED BROTHER

NoPistons! 11-10-08 09:10 PM

No, his car is nice. I wish i had his tails actually, cracked reverse lense and all.

If you've ever spent time on honda tech, it's an elite fest and if your car isn't a land speed record junkyard setup or mad tite jdm, it's trash. Really. Even if the car isn't even riced and subtly modified, it's still hated on. I see it on EVERY forum i go on. I figured the rx7 community would be a bit different since rx7's are bad ass cars. Do the supra guys act like this too?

Again, i'm liking his car, not bagging on it. 87 t-66 pointed out his tailights were busted. They're not as bad as he came off.

I wouldn't care if my car was finished with all the bells and whistles, i still wouldn't bag on his car because it's a seven and i dont see him doing anything wrong.

the reverse lens is not cracked, the guy that had them put some kind of clear coat on them so that they would not turn yellow with the sun and failed misserably at doing so. once they are on the car its hardly noticeable. Car looks better mang, keep up the good work and keep us posted:) :icon_tup:

Ya I like it, Doing some research on 5th and 6th ports. TweakGames has given me some tips when we meet at the Dyno on saturday. Check my car for Vac Leaks.. Which i had very little of. Trying to get those fixed. Tomorrow Im going to give the car a nice Wash and Wax, Clean it up and try and fix some of those Vac leaks.

Its strange but sense tomorrow is a holiday i get the day off of school and i just happened to have the day off of work to so All day to work on my car.

There is a wrecking yard about 35 miles from me with JUST RX7's might just go up there and find some parts for my interior.
