JaP-2-BC FD 4 me
hey there everyone, im from bc and just this last spring i decided to pick up a 92 fd from japan. ill just give you a quick backround on me, my first car that i bought before i even had a licence was an 85 gsl rx7 and ever since then i have always had a triangular shaped soft spot for these hulks of a sport car. i have owned many vehicles in between this 5 year gap in rotary. but i guess i dont need to tell any of you how awesome these cars are.
im 21 now, and i understand the basic fundamentals of how the rotary engine works. but this whole turbo (twin in my case) stuff adds a whole new bag of awesome that i have no idea about. i guess ill just tell you what i have and what i plan to do in the near future and any feed back would be greatly appreciated.
as of right now im running a twin turbo set up, i have an after market intercooler, forced air intake and electronic boost controll. im sure there is a bit more but like i said im used to a stock 12a engine. i will have to post a few pics when i get the clearance and maybe you can tell me what i have just from a few pics. my car will be off the road as of next week (oct. 13th/08) so i can start my plans. the car will be ripped apart as much as need be, i will be repainting as well, to get what i need done. i have started to make sure i have all the guages so i can monitor my engine: oil pressure, boost, water temp, exhaust temp(which i think is no hooked up right) and air/fuel ratio. right off the bat i need to get a bigger intercooler and do a single turbo swap, so anyone that wants to do a trade for a twin turbo set up please hit me up. i am quite happy with the power i am getting right now, (net even shifting over 4 thousand rpm because i want to make sure my engine is in good shape before i let it fly) so next on the list for me would be air rise suspension, tires, and a few more small upgrades. i understand i will be sacrificing a bit of handling with the suspension but its ok with me for less chance of cracking my newly painted body kit. any ideas, prices, or feedback on any of this would be greatly appreciated. and if anyone knows rx7 people in kamloops, that is where i have had all my work done thus far, from the all knowing rotary pirate (you will know what i mean if you know him)
and please do not give me feedback if you are farily new to this type of engine, i really do want to make this car as clean as possible with knowledge from the people with expierience. thanks again.
