I noticed you purchased NEW ignition coils and a twin power, is there any reason why you did not just get these coils instead https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generati...nstall-992444/ You could have saved a TON of cash. Alot of nice parts are in this build.

I have the TDX61 turbo as well what a/r did you get on the turbine side.

you're absolutely right, but I bought these stock parts a year ago.
I still had no clear idea on the project for my new engine a year ago and do not yet know Elliot (turblown)
I did not really want to sell the stock coils and I thought it was convenient to buy at least for now the HKS Twin Power. I do not deny that in the future go on to something more serious for the ignition

A/R TDX61:
I entrusted the construction and the complete configuration of the turbo KIT to Elliot (turblown)
are some days that I do not feel Turblown and I hope follow the post so that it can provide some more details for you

RENESISFD: what are the spec of your engine? RWHP? Boost?

very cool car and nice choice of parts

Why did you get a new engine? Did you buy the FD with an engine needing a rebuild?

Thanks Guys

@ Kupoi
I bought the car in August 2010 rebuild whit 50k km and and 6 years after rebuild..
after one year i had some problem with the engine, no water seal no apex seal or corner seal fail, the compression is fine. But i guess, Maybe some error from rebuild.
The problem is located in the eccentric shaft on oil restrict or Rotor bearing fail. when the engine is ON you can hear TUMP! TUMP! TUMP! TUMP! as a slamming into the engine.

as this on video
