No, that is Nemesis from Resident Evil.

Ya, it's a GTS-t... and at this point a hell of a lot better/faster than your broken FC.

Not to mention I also own an FD (and no it's not JDM)

Looks like I'm lightyears ahead of you and your $500 car.

yeah I know, at one point I was gonna get an RX8 and still wonder about it today. Nemesis is more fitting for a RENESIS engine.

I play nice when others play nice.

I still wonder... you seem to have all this money for this magical 26b build, and at one point wanted to buy an RX8. Why the hell did you buy a $500 FC?

After the first two pages of reading bulls*it, I realized this is a joke of a thread with an attention grabbing OP. So I didn't read anymore because I didn't want my IQ to go down.

You're saying the FC Chassis is better than the RX8? I would beg to differ.

full sentences please. I still have no idea what you're talking about.

what am I getting at about what?

the fact that you tried to bash be for owning a GTS-t, when it's funny because it RUNS and is faster, and better looking than your broken FC and most GTR's?

as I said..... you don't read

so what's your IQ at now? all money no brain...

everyone know to work on the engine before working on the chassis, I wanted to get the RX8 because of the chassis, I got the FC so I could have more money put into under the hood

I wasn't bashing, I was mentioning what are you getting at by saying that you have a GTS and an FD.

lol, everyone is so off topic... The real swap was going to be a 20b if I read right. Which was awhile ago. Are you sure your mechanic adjusted the tps right? Also you SURE there is no vacuum leak? (i.e vacuum hoses, gasket, injectors)

He is not sure of anything, because he does not work on the car himself.

This started as a boo hoo thread, with only 1 broad question. It was all a sad story (even the title reflects this!)

There is no sense in giving information to this person, because they will not use it. The mechanic should be the one on here asking questions.

"I'm open for any other suggestions as to what is wrong with my car. Right now I'm even looking into a new fuel pump, ECU, RC injectors and an engine swap."

^ This is the only item where he asks any kind of question whatsoever.

Can we please lock this thread! It has no information for the 2nd gen TECH section.

Thanks!

Rob

Id recommend just buying a FD or a T2 and calling it a day. Some things in life just aren't worth it....and a 20B swap is one of them....Its a rare swap for a reason. I know a guy thats been working on a 20B swap for atleast 5yrs and he's a rotary guru! A good friend of mine started a 20B swap into an FC and he ended up abandoning the project (i think he knew he was getting in way over his head financially and he started to realize it wasn't worth it anymore)...Get your car fixed first...Drive it...You might actually be content with how it is now once u getting it running properly

adjusted the TPS right or not... I have no IDEA, vacuum leak... none apparently, injectors... cleaned but I've considered buying new ones.

well I called the people at ROTARY ENGINE and one guy says that it's most likely a TPS issue or even a bad fuel cut off installation, then Adam at ROTARY ENGINE said that even he isn't sure what's going on.

I'm too broke to buy anything at the moment, and 1 car at a time. A 5 year project abandoned??? that's why I don't work on my own cars anymore. Last time I work on my Lude I had to abandon and sell it as dirt. It's why I don't do anything major myself.

Forget the 20B. Seriously!


Get your car running.
Seriously! This was early on in this thread! Don't YOU read?

I doubt it is a bad fuel cut-off switch installation. It would either work or not.

Did ADAM ever even see the car or work on it? If not, then he is absoultely correct, he would have no idea. Just like anybody else that doesn't WORK ON IT!!!

Seriously, please close this pile of a thread!

if you cant fix a honda you should never touch a tool for fear of killing yourself omg sell ur rexxy and go get urself a escort and drive it till it dies and go get another and u should never own a sports car cause that also requires some intelligence above ur level, and before you say **** to me keep this in mind i own a fc drift car and also work as a master service tech for a dealership that will remain nameless, have built 12 turboed hondas all of which still throw down today and a my last was a h22 powered 600+hp crx drag car
