Need Some Help
I currently have another thread open https://www.rx7club.com/suspension-wheels-tires-brakes-20/handling-problems-my-rx7-741145/ but i have a few other question which i would like to open up to everyone,
My rx7 seems to have a black box marked blitz turbo scramblem to the top left hand corner under the bonnet,
I then have a control in the glove compartment, with buttons named,
On/Off Low, High, ST, SB, Scramble, i was hoping to find out if anyone could shed any light on what this does and how it can affect the vehicle.
I also have another pad to the left of gear box which is an apexi one which i believe is in relation to the water temp,
This has buttons named
Peak, Warn and two other i cannot remember the name off,
Can anyone shed some light on this?
I also had problems this morning starting my rx7, on insertion of the key and trying to turn over the car, the car did not do anything not even try to turn over, i eventually managed to get the car to turn over, is this a battery problem or flooding or something else perhaps?
I have been advised in respect to my rx7 losing traction on tightish - tight corner (even at very low speed) to change the tyres, align the wheels and also raise the car through the coilovers.
I have also come accross something named a D-Box used for drifting etc, and was hoping if anyone could direct me to where the steering servo is located to check if the car has a D-Box fitted, i was told that the car had an uprated diff, but i cannot see the diff affecting the car to the extend of what is happening.
The clutch is also up-rated (which is a nightmare also) when this clutch is pressed fully to the floor i am getting a strange noise (almost like scratching, this may not be the best way to explain it but i cant think of any other way)
There are a few mods to the engine which i am completely unsure of what they are not sure if you can see any of them from the picture provided,
Any help would be much appreciated,
Many Thanks
Sandy

snap some pics of the instruments in question and post them up so we can see them. Unless someone has the exact thing it will be hard to say for sure without seeing it. And even then it may be difficult.

Yep, I am back like the clap!!
The first p[ic next to the cd or md is to blury for me totell.
The second pic is the electronic boost control solenoid ,that monitors and activates the wastegate pressure.
Third pic is blury but it looks like the controller unit for the boost controller.
If you can get model #'s or whatnot you can look upi the manual online, probably download it from Blitz.. You should be able to see what each setting is without haveing to actually drive and watch the boost gauge.

The first pic, is the one that has something to do with my water temp, i can set it to warn me when it reaches a certain temp, or set a peak etc i think :S
