I loved the noise. My problem was it leaking from around the seal under the mount

 

Are you familiar with the Met Council? That is who I race with. There aren't very many Rx7s so I would love some competition! I usually pretty much own CSP and not because I am that fast, because I am the only one that ever races in that class! Kinda sucks....so come on out. Mnautox.com

 

Quick update:

Got a lot done since my last post! First of all, I have the good summer wheels and tires on finally. Unfortunately upon remounting, one of the inner beads tore and a nice Minnesota pot hole took care of the rest, causing a bubble in the sidewall. Oh well, its an excuse to upgrade to 205s!



And I spent the entire weekend doing the biggest mods for the year, swapping the 4.78 Kia GSLSE hybrid rear end and the S4 N/A FC transmission.


Swapping out the tail shafts/speedo gears. Gotta love the 4.78 rear gears and keeping a 3200rpm tach at 60mph.


Stupid open nonsense, never again!


Sitting pretty after a long weekend of work!

And today I got my new Star Specs!

They'll be mounted Wednesday

 

i had no idea kia gears would work what r they off of?

 

Front diff of a pre-2000 sportage. The whole pumpkin is a bolt in actually.

Easily one of the nicest builds on this forum! Great work man!

 

Great build Jon! Car looks awesome in person 2!

 

I just realized how long it has been since I've updated this. I'll get it up to date later on today.

 

Well over this season I mostly just drove the car. A lot. A few upgrades have been done but not much. The spoiler made its way on the car of course after some fresh paint. I finally got my full exhaust fabbed up as well. Full 2.5" stainless with the twin magnaflow mufflers. Still loud as nuts but its got a really nice tone. I also installed an MSD 6AL and 2-step module for fun. The flames are very entertaining. Not as entertaining as watching peoples faces when they see my empty dizzy. I still need to clean up my engine bay though, and move my battery one of these days.

Here are some pics from this season of fun. I love this car.

 

Hay Mr.how are things going.long time no see.....

 

Lookin great!

 

Car still looks awesome, keep up the good work

 

Good part is I just bought a 2003 Ford Ranger for the winter. Which means, sad but true, I can park the 7 for quite a while to tackle big projects. Body work, paint job, turbo goodies, the works.

 

Woah, never checked back in... "turbo goodies"???

Hope your winter is going well so far. I picked up a Mustang in August so I didn't have to drive the 7 this year either and will be getting some work done on her in the next 4 months to hopefully have it running on the road by May.
