Buckey's Pro-Am Build: '87 Mazda RX7 TurboII
If you're using the kg rails and Bosch injectors then I'm not surprised it caught on fire. It takes a bit of time to get them to seal properly, I ended up using some vacuum tubing cut to size
Yes! Im beyond over them. Anything rubber just expands and ultimately shrinks after being heatcycled and in contact with the fuel....
Had the opportunity to do a shoot with Falken Tire a few weeks back along with several other iconic cars in the scene. Was really the main focal point to be finished with the car in time for this, and as always took it over just hours before to make it just in time. No matter how much time you have, it always ends up never being enough, but this time everything fell right into place! Check out the video, and see some of the behind the scenes footage of it!

throw those kg rails in the garbage next to where mine are..
Lol I was going to quote him as well. Very solid set up right there. FFE has been doing a great job machining those rails. Jason and Aaron's work is superb. I didn't know how many ppl are running these rails. They haven't been out long
Definitely sucked catching my car on fire doing a burnout before realizing they sprayed under load but glad its handled.
Maybe after i pay off some debt to friends ill order those FFE rails. Still wanted to move to ID1000/2000 setup and add a wastegate for the power
Saw your car in the Falken video looking fresher than ever! Got me motivated to get back on the forum and working on my pos lol
*Also read the last 2 yrs of your build to get caught up. Good stuff.

Tonight we just switched wastegate springs back to the 14psi spring. I called the dyno and rescheuled for tomorrow. My tuner is staying out here till the car is sorted (thankfully)
He seems excited for it and confident we'll make 400+. Will update you tomorrow with info!
PS: thank you justin for taking time to highlight that for me. Hahahahaha

after wall contact, no level of beating, bending, mending, or pulling makes it line up 100% straight again. Just get it the best you can and make it work. Learn from mistakes and just keep drifting!
