I haven't got to drive yet hopefully soon though!

 

still haven't driven the car yet but i did install new spark plugs today and let it idle for about two hours in my driveway.

I'm currently looking for some new literature about tuning rx7s. Anyone have any suggestions?

here is another short video.

Sorry for being ignorant but are you gonna have to run that through a break in period with out redlining it?

 

Yeah due to the brand new bearings I will be keeping it below 4k rpms for a couple thousand miles.

And speaking of books, look what just came in the mail!

 

You ever get that rust fixed?

 

not yet but i did buy a mig welder to play with!

 

put the first 25 miles on the engine today after finding a small vacuum leak! i should have close to 100 miles by the time i get home from work tonight.

 

How's the break in going?

 

I'm at 500 miles already and it's driving really smooth! I haven't exactly been babying it either, it's just to much fun!

 

Car has come a long way.

 

i just put the first 15 miles on my car today! prity big day for me considering how long I have been building my car! need to start driving it more now!

 

Nice! thats always a great feeling.

Ive made it up to 1300 miles so far.

 

Im sorry this was filmed at night. This is my celebration on 2000 miles!

Nice!

 

just read through the entire build
question about the double sheave main drive pulley. Per the RB website they don't recommend use for turbo applications, because power is made in lower RPM. You also have a whole punched or light weight flywheel which reduces rotating mass as well.
I was staying away from reducing the rotating mass assuming it would effect my midrange power band, does the power band just move to higher RPM?
Do you notice a higher revving engine or less torque because of those items?
I drift also using stock t2 pulley/flywheel, I'm wondering if there would be an advantage to installing the RB pulley on the turbo motor.

 

installed some RC injectors! 550 primaries 1200 secondaries, maybe a bit overkill but oh well. should be alright with this BNR stage 3

 

Nice I need to come check this out...makes me wanna stop neglecting fixing myn.

 

Ive got a little space to start working on my red car! it needs a lot of work.

 

Great build thread! Thanks for all the info!

 

 

Great thread. Can't wait to see how the port turns out!

 

:/

 

i wanted to bring this thread to a proper end. a new thread will take its place soon with my other two rx7s
