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.

 

what size is that rear housing fitting?! please and thank you my oil lines are coming in the mail and im missing the fittings lol
awesome build btw

 

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.

 

do you know which one is bigger/smaller between front and back?

 

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

 

Check racing beat.... It will tell you all! That's how I figured it out

 

This is the lemons car I picked up Saturday.






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

 

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....

 

Pics of the car after it was set on the ground!

After being loaded for the trip to the new house!



resting next to it's siblings lol



The grass is a temporary parking place until I get around to moving the 2 in the driveway for this one to sit.

Also scored a free steering rack from work. No idea what's it came off of yet.

 

Finally received my t2 brake caliper adapters! I pulled one FC caliper apart so far, but have yet to finish cleaning and painting them.

 

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.


I also got my parts from mazdatrix. New bearings, lower FC hard lines, and new caliper pins


Before it got cold and snowy out I finished pulling the cage out of the lemans car





And since I'm at it here is my rx7 hot wheels sickness lol



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!

 

That, and some orange hot wheels track.

 

Where did you get the caliper brackets?

 

There was a group buy on here a while back. I dot think they doing it again

 

Ok thanks

 

Well I picked up yet another fb! It's an 83 gs tornado silver metallic with the original 3 piece wing, targa band, and louvers. The interior is black and in ok condition. I picked the car up with 86k miles for $500. I will post pics when it warms up a bit

 

How the heck does that happen?!?! I've never seen one for sale that cheap. Luck you!

 

Haha I make it happen!!!

I've gotten 3 for free, 2 for $350, 1 for $400, 1 for $175, 1 for $500, 1 for $700, and 1 for $1600

 

That's just insane...

 

Haha how do you think I came up with my username. I currently have 5 rx7's at my house and an 8 soon to follow

 

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.





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.
