thats it for now. getting together the pictures of the body work in progress.

nice launch in the last pic.


and am i wrong but is there no fan on the radiator at all?

its a very small fan

no theres one on there. its an electric fan, small but gets the job done.

i had a guy at a drift event run an NA with an open header that dumped right behind the front wheel, sounded redic bouncin off the limiter. good luck

hahaha just want to let you know i have full exhaust.

this thing looks pretty good, front needs to be lower though. good luck with your build.

you should consider getting a stock clutch fan.

does a much better job than any e-fan, especially in a drifting situation

Thanks man, and i know! haha im looking for some used coils on here to use for now but everything sells stupid fast.



i had a stock clutch fan on there and it was overheating with it on, threw the e fan on and golden. dont plan on keeping the rotary anyway, but we will save that for another post :)

Nice FC, what are the future plans?I got dumped header on my 88 NA and it sounds great and is nowhere near as loud as my buddy's Cobra.

^^ clearly this guy was born deaf.. open pipe na rotary is retarded loud.

agreed. even on the track it got old after the first 30 seconds. sounded like a whining baby on speed

Damn who's badass minitruck is that in the pics?

some faggots

Why you getting rid of it

Got some small updates. didnt get to start on the body work like i wanted to cause of the cold weather and the fact that i started to hear really bad crunching and grinding coming from my driver side wheel hub. started ripping her apart today, bearing was completely done. its whatever good excuse to finally get my dtss in :)

brake rotor is really bad and needs to be replaced along with new pads

off the car

http://i384.photobucket.com/albums/o...9/IMGA0239.jpg

bearing all grinded and spit

http://i384.photobucket.com/albums/o...9/IMGA0240.jpg

started to clean the hub alittle bit, i think it will turn out decent!

http://i384.photobucket.com/albums/o...9/IMGA0243.jpg

http://i384.photobucket.com/albums/o...9/IMGA0244.jpg

new bearings and dtss. rotors and pads are up in the air. trying to decide on blanks or drilled and slotted. the pads im not sure about either...:scratch:

i have to wait till tomorrow to use the press, not going to try and hammer them in.
thats it till tomorrow...

Get blanks if you daily the car.

its a daily as of right now but eventually it will be a full on track car. im thinking blanks and new pads will lock just as good.

Actually I serviced jet aircraft for Delta Airlines for 2 years so yes I do suffer from hearing loss in my left ear.

Here is my channel on YouTube where you can hear my open header, I even put the cam where you can see the pipe hanging under.

its an rx7 of course it smokes lmao

i wish i could find a car like that in a junkyard. not bad looking at all.

Cold weather? Dude we live in Florida! And he didn't get his car from a junkyard believe it or not :lol:

haha he wasnt talking about my car. if you read instead of just looking at pictures the kid above me has a junyard saved 7 he picked up for 500 bucks. oh and you cant use body filler in cold temp.
