You're way ahead of me, love your build! I've been following your progress over the years. I know how you feel, I rarely get feedback when I post. I'm in the boring -take everything apart stage though. -Matt

https://www.rx7club.com/single-turbo...rcoler-894666/ , I've since added in an FC oil cooler in series in the space before the rad for two reasons, first is for even better cooling of the charge an second is to cause less cooling by the rad (to block some flow to the rad) since it was overcooling !

Thanks bro , I guess a lot of guys (fello members) don't realize that their interest and replies also provides encouragement and inspiration to the people doing the builds.

Yeah, sometimes there's just so many things going on on this site that people can miss some of the best work if they don't look hard enough. i've been on this forum for a few months now and everyday i come across great work with valuable information that i might be able to use in the future so thanks for sharing your car with us and i'm certain there is many other people that find these builds interesting but unfortunately the majority of people i've met in my area with rx-7's don't even know about the rx7club and the ones that do usually just don't know where to look on this forum

Even with your weight test, the manifold will get weaker as it heats. It will probably not matter, but it would never hurt to put the brace there either.

Nasty build dude, keep it up. I guess for each guy that posts and says "good job" there are 20 others thinking the same thing who didn't post... kinda like they say if you see a cockroach in your house there are 1000 in the walls

What's the rotary scene like in T&T?

The e shaft isnt a modded one its a completely new aftermarket one , check it out here ;https://www.rx7club.com/rotary-car-p...-shaft-635143/. The only extra oil passage is the one on the front plate that I run the loop too.
