What have you...different from last year.
What have you...different from last year.
I just had this thread idea. Not sure if its been done before though.
Anyway, basically its about :
What have you done to your car since last DGRR ('07), modifications, upgrades, etc.??
Or if your bringing a different car than what you brought last year. What is it?
Im bringing my '89 RX7 GTU (the one I brought before). Changes since last year, tune-up, replaced drive-shaft (w/what might be a TII drive-shaft), 4-piston front brake caliper swap, emissions removal, non-blown (working) speakers, (comming this weekend, if all goes well) window tint, (and sometime within the next few months) R-tec ECU upgrade.
I thinking of doing a engine swap with my project engine, but might not do it before DGRR '08.

Here is Kenny's BEAST!!! Looks good!

07' I had the 90' black GXL with black Rims. That one has been sold.
I am getting ready to pick up an 87' Silver TII. Mods will probably be in the
lines of suspension maybe exhaust and some other little mods. I will
wait until next winter to do anything motor and ecu. I don't want to
have the car down for the 08' rally and possibly some track days though
out the year. Picking here up this week

Fresh Ported Engine, 99+ front bumper with all accessories, Dual oil coolers, PWR Radiator, Blitz FMIC, Knight Sports Turbos, 1300cc secondaries, Feed Carbon Sides, RE Rear Diffuser, other random bits & new audio stuff.

Good to hear you guys are getting your car ready for this event!!
I just got the word that my RX-2 is running and is ready to be picked up!!
Also, to remind some of you.. I would go ahead and sign up early as the rooms are being filled up and registration fee is at the lowest.. Starting Jan 1st, it will go up $10/person.
Don't get me wrong, I want all of you to wait so I could pocket extra $10... but I rather people sign up early..
More info about the event, videos of the event, pics, etc... goto:

Also, please help spread the word!! I want next year to be the BIGGEST, Baddest, rotary gathering in US of A!

^Used Osaka JDM motor and 14psi....I guess I had to know it wouldn't last too long. Been getting harder and harder to start so I decided to do a compression check and my fears were confirmed:
95-Front
70-Rear
I can't imagine how fast it will be with a streetport and the Stage 1 BNR....Just need to sell my gixxer to get the cash for the build. Going to have Charles do the rebuild.

would love to drive an Rx-7 to it this year because after making it last year, i'm officially hooked (but i did miss driving my 7). however, unless i win the lottery (or have some other form of unrealistically good luck), i'll probably be driving the Rx-8 again. my plan is to have a full tuneup, exhaust, brakes and possibly a flywheel by then. i guess we'll see ...
