Thank you. No the wheels are made in house, By ChipsMotorsports. One off set.

 

nice touch with the carbon driveshaft. your build is awesome. oval exhaust is best option for sure.

 

I was wondering why you made the custom lower suspension arm shown in this picture. Did you do it for strength or to relocate something?

Those lower arms are fully adjustable they have spherical bearings in them, It gives you more camber control if you run bigger wheels and lower the car significantly also a much stiffer and solid set up than running stock OEM pillow ball . All around its a good mod.

Thank you

 

Finally after a 3 month wait, i got my Tial SS exhaust housing in for my GT45R its a 1.30 ar.

This was the final piece i was waiting on to get started on the Titanium exhaust housing and Down pipe.

So tune in, as the **** pics will start to hit soon ...

When will you work on Damian's car?

 

The 3 rotor in the back with one of those drysump covers are his and his race prep engine will be done after some machining 1month max

 

how thick is the oil "pan" plate that you are using with the Mazda dry sump setup? 1/4" or thinner?

 

Yes 1/4 on the sump plate.
Thanks

 

Whoa, beautiful car. Can't wait to see the finished product!

 

How much is the dry sump kit going for, I been thinking of putting it on my 20B

 

Awesome thread, very interested in seeing how you plumbed the coolant thermostat in to the system. Been trying to figure out how to do it with my electric water pump.

so much win in this thread. Amazing job

 

Thank you ...



Nothing really new, just swamped with other stuff going on... But i'm soon to be free and 1 on 1 with the ol lady ( Gold Digger) ...

Picket up a cool gold ECU for the Gold Digger, might as well keep it in the same theme ..

Will start the new mill spec wire harness here shortly.

That's about it for now... Till next time.. Long live the rotary .. lol

 

Who are you going to use to insure this beast?

 

State Farm is pretty good on insuring just about anything, i have them for all my goods and they insure my Custom chopper no problem...

Thanks

 

Its a manual machined fabed out low clearance steering rack. For those looking for more ideas to the dreadful bump steer issue, maybe this idea might help .. My engine is a bit lower than most 3 rotor swaps out there, close to 1 inch lower. I mean i don't have no motor mount puck /bushings the motor mount arms are siting right on the sub frame lol, with a -3 degree tilt on the engine.

But any way, my pride and joy..

I also own the AtomicRex manual rack. Personally i like the OEM manual converted unit better. It has a smother steering action, its much lighter to turn left to right. the fact i can get parts right from the Auto parts store to rebuild the OEM unit is a good option also. The Atomic rack in my opinion, it looks good that about as far as i will go. If that break down, were do i even start to get parts from it ??? Atomic Rex the manufacturer has gone missing... I'm sure most of you get my point.

Thanks

 

Atomic Rex england? He has gone under and now expanded his reach into other marks of car. He is selling off his own stuff for reasonably cheap.

Great car BTW

 

Good to know thanks

 

One Impressive Build. Can't wait to see the final results, Love the Color choice
