https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...ebuild+process Well heres the updated pics of my build. http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/rebuild.jpg http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/rebuild1.jpg http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/rebuild2.jpg http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/rebuild3.jpg http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/rebuild4.jpg http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/rebuild5.jpg http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/rebuild6.jpg Got new seals from rotaryaviation. Great people to deal with. I bought the basic kit from them for 795CDN (504US). Got everything you need for the build except side seals, corner seals and chain I reused mine since they were in spec. I paid 26US extra for the chain though. Did a whole lot of cleaning. That took the longest time to do. Did a really small port job since its my first time on the dremel, so next time ill do a bigger. Will be putting in the engine, once I get the cherry picker here and the tb, intake etc..all tranfered to the rebuild. Ill keep posted.:D |

Nice job, man - HOw did u get the engine so clean...looks so nice and shiny! I am envious.... |
Just the other day I was thinking of painting my rims like that, its looks better then I imagined.
do you have some shots from further away? |
yeah painted the iron aluminum
also sprayed the wheels black since they were all dent in and all...heres another pic http://www.dvst8.com/rx7/black.jpg |
that actually looks pretty good, what color is that?
wonder what a more greyish color would look like |
Looks great! How did you get the rotor housings so clean? Looks like a bead-blast job
|
Hmm i like the wheels
|

|
Yeah how did you get in to clean all the tight spots on the engine?

it'll look good until you get oil or some solvent on it, then the paint comes off. I learned that the hard way.
|
Not if you use engine paint. the high temp stuff with ceramic in it works best. And once it get hot. Its on there, for good.
|
Paint.
If you want permanent paint, go get some Por15, that stuff needs to be baked on but it's not going anywhere.

I'm just going to use some high temp Powder coating next time. Which is now, since i blew my engine......again!
|
ah the power of paint, love it!! =p
|
HE PAINTED THE ENGINE! Come on, Im not that retarted. You can't paint dirty shit otherwise it will come off, duhhhh. |
Man that thing really looks like a beer keg now!!!

Well, how does it run?
|
its running good now.. idles steady at 800-1k. Starts without problems no more flooding.. .its just loud as hell now from the exhaust manifold area..but im happy with the results..
|
Good job on the rebuild my man! Looks good and the wheels look a hell-of-alot better painted than stock.
