great job man, looks like its going to be a great car!

 

Very nice set-up! It spools so quick! At what RPM are you getting full boost? What's your turbo's A/R?

Yanmorissrx7

 

.88 a/r

 

Installed Strut bar and B&M Line lock

 

It's come a loooong way....nice work man.

 

If you want it back I'm looking for a rotary Samurai or an RX-3.

Like the third one..

 

yeah, i like the first one.

 

I know the feeling. I just sold my RHD second gen and my rust bucket 72 Rx2 this week...

But I have a clean 73 Rx2 on the way! Old school is better than new school.

 

At it again. During mothers day weekend i turned on the car and heard a knocking noise. The higher the car revved the faster the knocking noise got. As i reached in to shut it off the motor took a dump. I covered the car back up and didn't mess with it for a month. I checked compression and it was telling me that the rear rotor had lost an apex seal. About a month after that i decided to pull the motor out and see what the damage was. As i pulled off the LIM a ceramic coating polishing ball dropped out of the LIM. I thought i had gotten them all out when i assembled it the first time but i guess not. ( My mistake ). When i disassembled the motor the only thing broken was an apex seal spring. I decided that since it was out and open again i was going to upgrade a few things. I decided to pin the motor this time around so i dropped off the motor at the machine shop for pining and the machinist dropped and broke my front plate. After spending almost a month searching for one i finally got the pining done. I also decided to go with the goopy seals instead of the Atkins seals that where in there already. I upgrade to a better quality turbo manifold and swapped out the HKS wastegate for a Tial.

Great thread!!

 

Motor back in..

 

nice to see it alive again. I can't wait till I strap in a 366 to my car.

let's see that thing crush over 500 this time lol

 

wow, that car has come a long way! nice job! what's the back story on the car from the previous owner??

 

The car already hit 502 at 21psi.

 

I've never really asked.

 

badass, didn't know you uped the boost from the 485 at 18psi.

are you planning the run it higher than 21?
from what I've gathered in research these turbos really start shining at higher boost levels.

 

For right now 500 is plenty. I barely drive the car as it is.

 

 

Now that my friends, is one clean @ss engine bay! Great work bro! Looks like it came a long way and still progressing
