I'll be using the one I've been working on for the body kit. The one I bought with the kit on it runs and drives great so I will out it back to stock and drive it.
This weekend I will be picking up a caged 83 rx7 for FREE!!! Talk about lucky lmao pics when I get it. |
awesome build btw:nod: |
u can get those fittings from racing beat. not sure of the specific size without looking at the RB site.
|
Honestly it's been so long I don't remember what size they are. As stated above racing beat sells them ad you can get all the info there.

the front cover fitting and cooler fittings are all the same, but smaller than the rear housing fitting. i think it is 18 mm.

This is the lemons car I picked up Saturday.
Attachment 638589 Attachment 638590 Attachment 638591 Attachment 638592 Sadly the motor is locked, however it does have the crazy hard to find 3 piece wing on it and many other awesome parts I can use! I also found this bad boy for only $150 Attachment 638593 |
Update:
I have finishes installing all the brand new steering parts and reinstalled the strut tubes to get the car rollable. I also did get the car to fire for a few seconds! I have yet to plumb in the new carburetor so I can only start it on starting fluid. As for the interior I wasn't happy with the huge hole around the shifter so I made a rotor shaped trim ring and mounted it to the center console. Still need to buy new bolts and mount the rear en up. Pics soon |
Car is now rollable! Not drivable, but able to be transported to my house and out of my girlfriends nice garage lol. Car still needs a lot of work, but it has to be moved to my house. It will sit outside with the other 4 rx7's I have....

This winter thing can go anytime now! I want to work on my car pretty badly, but it's sitting out in the snow sadly.
Here is my newly acquired t2 brake caliper brackets. Attachment 632678 I also got my parts from mazdatrix. New bearings, lower FC hard lines, and new caliper pins Attachment 632679 Before it got cold and snowy out I finished pulling the cage out of the lemans car Attachment 632680 http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u...psrcsn5jlk.jpg And since I'm at it here is my rx7 hot wheels sickness lol Attachment 632681 Attachment 632682 Now all I need is pads, rotors, and braided brake lines to get the front end to roll/stop. Then I will have to start on the rear! |

Well it's starting to warm up! I was a little motivated to do some things. I started taking the body kit off the parts car for mine.
Attachment 628773 Attachment 628774 Attachment 628775 I need to get under the hood and get some parts ordered to finish up the fuel system and cooling system. |
I don't know how u find these deals either! Maybe I should tell myself that I'm lucky not to find these deals as I have not room for them anyway.
