Hey, new from NZ

Hi There, Im Brad from New Zealand, I own a 1985 Series 3 RX7 small tire (28x9) drag car. Running a S5 13BT street port engine on E85 running a S400SX Borg Warner turbo, Microtech LT16 ecu. Tremec TKO 500 transmission. I have built the car up myself from a roller, including majority of Fabrication and all mechanical work . Car has run 9.03 @153. I've attached a link of a recent meet where unfortunately I hit the wall in the braking area, so car is getting repaired and a few changes.

Good to be finally posting have had alot of good info from you guys for ages!

Wow, that's impressive! I don't think I'd have the ***** for that kind of speed in a little FB.

Has it been dynoed?

Yeah been dynoed made just under 700rwhp. It run the 8's under the power and boost levels we tuned to, so more in it yet. Seasons just finished here so will have to wait until next to see what it can do. All done with an H-pattern gearbox.

Cheers Brad
