New member from FT. WORTH TEXAS

Hey everyone I have a 93 RX7 R-1 touring edition.. I have had the car for approx. 4 months now.. I got it from a friend as payment for totaling my 05 STI.. I am currently in the process of finishing an ls1/t56 swap. Yes I know people on here aren't very fond of it. Sorry for your hate .. Now for some pics!

Well, since it carries Hinson Supercar DNA, you might get some grudging kind comments form the rotorheads. They've got killer deals on Optima batteries on eBay once in while. They used to be a regular staple in AutoWeek and Car and Driver, too.

Check out South Forum regional board. We have first-Saturday-of-the-month rotary "meets" at the Cheddar's parking lot at MacArthur and 635.

The only DNA of Hinson that I have is that used radiator, oh and their wall mount for the master cylinder..

So far it is Grannys Speed Shop subframe, torque arm, and trans mount
I am doing the wiring now, I am having a local shop make my exhaust dual 2.5" y'd into 3" with a magnaflow hi flow cat.

There is a local battery shop that sells their Optimas for $50. I have mine mounted in the rear already..

Since this picture I have shortened the Power wire by a foot and a half or so..

I will let you know later on today.. I went to crank it up last night and the fuel pump wasn't flowing any fuel.. Turns out I clipped and ground the wrong wire. I am just going to redo it with a new relay and go from there.. I did hear a faint heart beat last night.. (using starter fluid) I think I am going to empty the fuel tank and put some new 93 in there..
