New RX-7 in town.....
Owner can't drive it though. No license, yet. (No permit actually).
Anyway, he's a good friend of mine, from here in town... (Gulf Breeze, FL). The car was brought to him by his uncle - I believe it's a base model. I'll show pictures here in a second, maybe you guys can tell me. Anyway, it's a really nice car....And very nice engine. :drool: So far he did, but still not done yet: 1. So far the engine has been rebuilt and ported. 2. He changed the final drive alittle for more top speed. 3. Tuned the car - new gaskets, hoses, spark plugs, etc. That's all I know now... but what he told me in email last night (quoted from it): "Somethiing bad with REX that can be fixed though...I gotta get a new rotor :( my uncle has had 3 rx-7's and he said that whenever I put my car into 3rd gear it might just bust! so that wont ake long...minor." Anyone know?? Oh, and pics below. His car: https://www.rx7club.com/forum/attach...postid=1119946 His freshly new rebuilt and ported motor :drools: https://www.rx7club.com/forum/attach...postid=1119993 |

I just re-read that and someone is a moron. Right, replace a rotor, no big deal at all, very minor............:rolleyes:

Well, Like I told you on aim, I don't think it's him per se... His uncle is the one that told him that whenever he goes into 3rd gear, the engine might "bust" and break a rotor.
I replied to him last night and said... "I don't think it'll bust, but I do believe if you can't get into 3rd gear, either one of these choices: 1. synchros are bad. 2. need new tranny oil. 3. bushings are bad - need to be replaced. " But i could be wrong.... edit: biorotary... that's what I'm saying, but I think I understand some of it..... I dunno... He's not that "literated" in rx-7s, and I don't think his uncle is either.... |
that car looks very nice indeed! :D

But can I ask a question .. as he appears not to understand, and i'm not sure what he's referring too?
How can going into 3rd gear mess up your rotor? |
