Hi guys I'm STU from Auckland NZ! When I was in Brisbane I went for a drive in a HOT ROTAR & BEEN HOOKED!!!! SINCE .. I have managed to get my hands on a
1989 fc3s GT-R Coupe Bridgeport ! Which is close to getting new rego & warrant !! I ALSO love fishing & diving ! Who doesn't love fresh fish & crayfish & the OUTDOORS!! I have so much to learn about ROTARS but look forward to seeing ur guys car pics & discussions & can't WAIT TO BE *APART* OF MY MY FIRST RX7 BEACH HOP ! yes sir THANKS STU

 

Hi Stu...how do you do?..lol.!

 

Stu, let's see a pic of this bad boy! Welcome, and I love the enthusiasm. We need more members who are legitimately passionate about the rotary and not here just to buy/sell parts.

 

Hey guys thanks for the warm welcomes , I'm still learning how to navigate this site!I WILL TRY POST UP some photos , I just didn't want to over step my mark ! Now my fc is all up & running awesome ! I just need to hook up rear brakes ! A bit of carpet & a paint job lol ! Oh and a bit of strip that runs around the car !

 

Hey, that's in just as good, if not a better place than most of our cars we've had for years! At least yours is driving. Seems like every time mine is okay, I decide to do something else to it.

Car you educate me on the GTR monicker? We didn't have that trim in the states.

 

Here my fc engine



Fc3s GT-R Bridgeport.





Dash





I will eventually put a inter cooler in it
I hope I uploaded photos ok and u guys can see them !!
ONCE OUTSIDE IS PAINTED & maybe a GP1 body kit on her SHE WILL LOOK THE PART!
I'd like to set a few gauges into the dash where the air conditioning grills are that u can see in the middle of that dash photo

 

We can see the pictures perfect, it looks very clean and complete!

 

Thanks Daniel ! It's getting there ! It's taken a bit of getting use to to drive !! Lol it' throws u back in ya seat Hahahaha so much fun ,

 

It looks like the stock turbo and all associated components (besides the bridge of course). What ECU is in the car?

 

Umm that controls the engine aye lol , I don't even no where it is HAHAHA, will it be written on it somewhere , sorry I really am a newby lol , BUT I DO KNOW ECU IS ENGINE CONTROL UNIT ! So that's a bonus lol hahaha

 

I ask because I wonder if the car is tuned for the bridge, or if it's just relying on the AFM to compensate. The ECU should be under a large shield in the passenger footwell. Next time you're digging around in the car it would be good to check on that.

 

Morning Daniel mate I've just taken cover off and and there's an old sticker on it that says Denso made in Japan then large letters N3 & the rest of that sticker us gone it looks like it the original ECU! But I don't know the car starts perfect every time & when secondaries kick in no turbo lag but it's my first rotary so I wouldn't no! Can u get a chip put in ecu to tune for Bridgeport im not sure but sounds & runs awesome ?

 

maybe not a bridge port, video it idling if you can manage to get a video uploaded, they are harder then photos. idling it should skip abit, and not be smooth

 

I meant once it warms up ! I will try a video upload ! But it def has a lumpy pulse ! How much does it cost to Bridgeport a fc3s 13b ANYWAY ! Out of interest ! ? I WIL TRY UP LOAD A VIDEO OK
LASTPHASEOFTHIS so I can get ur experienced opinion please THANKS MATE!!

 

This is what car sounds like with a motorcycle muffler to make a a little quieter ! Will put a twin pipe system in it once I have rego & warant! Just need to hook up rare brakes & handbrake! & get pop up lights to pop up ! Lol
ANYONE KNOW HOW I CAN UPLOAD A VIDEO from my iPhone lol

 

I think you'll need to host it on a site like YouTube and post the link, I don't recall being able to directly upload video.

 

heh,heh..American HI FI...(cassette!)
