iight guys here we go. my 7 has been lowered a bit in the front and back and it has the orig. shocks and about 153 K on it. my Question is, if i hit a jump and got maybe a foot off the ground, would it do any damage? thanks and i hope u all can tell me about ur experiences!

 

your probly not going to have a lot of luck finding people with experience in jumping there mazdas. but anyway, i dont think you really have to worry about the height of the jump, its just the landing, if you dont land perfectly flat on all 4 then your going to slam one end of your car on the ground. i dont know what it would break but its generally isnt a good idea to jump an rx7

 

um....wow, why would your car get off the ground anyway?

 

well at least with 9 posts we know hes knew at this...

 

i hope you are not planning on recreating 2 fast 2 furious.

 

i have a 89 t2 and its stock height but i have the stock front lip on it i scrape sometimes on roads when im cruising

 

well i have gotten all 4 off the ground on a really twisty rollercoaster like road before, it was probly around like 6 inches at 110 mph and did not scrape but i have harder springs

 

I've launched my '87 sport a couple of times. You WILL bottom out the shocks, depending upon the tires, you'll either slam the ground or your tires will take the brunt of it (a lot of tires will explode) Haven't you guys ever watched that FC promo video where they're going through all kinds of crazy crap with the FC? That **** was awesome, someone post a link!

 

damn, lol, i was thinking the same thing.

no bridge jumpin fo you!

 

check ebay i think they sell some wings for the rx-7 get a set and some motors to make them flap and not only could u make ur landing easy but maybe it would really fly

 

Jumping a car is a good way of ruining it

 

stock shocks with 153k will not be helping anything. You should have changed them at 60k. I say you will bottom out quick but hell get it on tape so we can see it. I had a monte carlo (woods car) that me and my freinds used to jump and crash all over the place. I used to get it 6-7 feet off the ground and landings would smash the windows and make the doors fly open. For some reason it always tipped to the left side and landed weird and I don't really know why I always had a passanger but still would land leaning drivers side. hell it was fun.

 

One of my friend jumped a 2002 Volvo S80, we were going about 105 and the car just got about 2 feet of the ground and lucky for him he had a great landing. he didn't damage anything except for the **** in his pants.

 

Wow, there are a lot of really stupid people on this forum...

And I used to wonder why auto insurance for 16-24 year olds was so high...

 

 

Just watch your exhast...thats how i lost mine!
