Is it just me or does it not seem like when one problem with our FD's is fixed another one pops up? For me its gone from one thing to the next: no boost(fixed), shitty idle(fixed), shitty rpm hesitations(somewhat fixed), coolant leak(fixed) and new a freakin bad-*** oil leak. What next? I only wish I was still stock! Not really, its worth it.

But... I guess for each mod there's another problem.

Sorry for my bitching.

 

it never is...

 

I feel your pain. I've put $20K into my car this past year and it seems I've had nothing but problems every since I first popped the hood. I thought I finally had everything right and was ready for tuning 4 months ago. And 4 months ago my engine slung a seal....

 

I feel your pain too bro, I ordered about $900 worth of parts off of rx7 store. Coming back from my friends house where i ordered the parts, the control arm popped out of where the joint is, causing me to go right into a curb. Bent shock, tie rod, and lower control arm. Ordered the parts from the for sale section on the forum, get the parts to have the car running on the street again (not rx7 store parts), and the alternator takes a ****.

Ps: not to mention, but i havent had my drivers side window down for about 3 months (blown window motor)
ALI

 

Single turbo...Running problem free for the past year.

Hope this helps

 

Maybe I'll meet ya there sometime

 

Well I hope I'll be problem free. I stripped everything out that wasn't important and went non-seq just before she blew. Instead of a single I went with the BNR stage 3 twins non-seq.

 

Single turbo would be nice but untill then i've heat coated all heat sheilds, exhaust manifold, DP and if I can seperate the turbo manifold i'll have that done to.

 

As Bill Clinton said: "I feel your pain" LOL

 

well I went from putting on a DP to polishing the intake to replacing the vaccum lines to going full non-seq to replacing the fuel pusation damper to cleaning the injector to getting a new wiring harness and I'm almost stock.

 

hey i just bought my FD this last october and have not had one problem with it other then a coolant hose spliting and yea when a drunk driver pulled the old hit and run and trashed my car but up until then problem free!(at 75,000miles for the record)

 

Better go find a big *** piece of wood and knock on it with a vengeance

 

uh rich whered you go

 

Seriously, I need to keep two of these in my glove box just for the sake of my insanity.

 

I had passenger side light motor go. A month or so later - the drivers' side did the exact same thing. WHat are the odds? (and wasn't I wishing I got a light kit after the first...)
