HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THIS?! You need to create a thread and link to it here. DO NOT POST YOUR PICTURES AND PROJECTS DIRECTLY INTO THIS THREAD!. I'm going to soon delete all the bad posts and then create the archive thread so hurry up and get links to your projects into this thread...

StylEmon's RX-7 Build

great idea Cake.

StylEmon
RX-7 Expirience
Building an RX-7. I bought my first RX when I was 17. Sold it at 20 and regret it ever since. Just bought my second one in Feb 06. It supposedly had 5k on a rebuild, but that must've been done by a feild rat. I had issues with the car since I bought it and suspected bad workmanship from the get go. I like to tinker and can handle replacing injectors and wiring pumps and gauges, but am no mechanic, So, a good friend of mine, and owner of Turblown Eng, is doing the work. I provide the money and beer to keep him happy! I've learned TONS already and decided to blog my progress.

http://87rx7.blogspot.com/


Tried to post the blog here on the club, but the images are finicky...

Im new to this site so i thought that id share a little bit about my rx. im currently building a three rotor 20k for my 1990 rx7. ive got lightweight and comp balanced rotors with 3 inch apex seals. im building a triple throttle body intake with a triple turbo setup(all 3 the same size). in theory i will be pulling 3 to 5 hundred hp per rotor. my friend that used to build race rotary motors told me that it would work i just have to synch up the boost at each rotor. this is my daily driven car mind you. i have in car boost control so i will have anywhere from 3 to 1500 hp at the control of my fingers. i have a full race tein suspension with the e controller. im currently painting the car and im doing and old school rattle can paint. its already looking good and the best is yet to come.

N/A to Turbo log

I am currently in the process of Turbo charging my S4 N/A engine. the log is a work in progress, and will be updated as I perform the work.

It's being written for anyone to be able to understand, and requires very little to no fabrication for this project.
