Funny thing is those guys love seeing me even tho i leave with half there money . I will be building a ls1 FC so this will all be new to me but everybody knows when i build something i dont cut corners. So we'll see what happens I am still in the market for a drive trans and some other stuff .

^To each their own, man. To each their own. His car - his way. Its like saying that me wanting to do a 13B TII swap in my first gen is cutting a corner, only not to that high of a degree.

Cutting a corner really HMMM Funny i guess you might just want to keep quit instead of putting ripples in the calm water. Question what is your quickest E.T. in the 1/4 in your Rx-7 ?I wasnt being a dick at all i was saying i dont cut corners and you as a person think that putting a motor that I think would be better suited for what I want. So do what you want with your own stuff and plz keep your personal ignorant thoughts to your self.
My build will be a street/strip car sorry im not into autocross and such as you might be. So again dont put ripples in the water you might not like what you find.

Well, I'm glad you found that comment amusing.. i guess. Keep quiet? I'll post when I wish. It isn't my problem. You're the one bent out of shape. Drag race? me? or not. My ignorant thoughts? Define ignorant.. uneducated? go ahead judge my intelligence. Life's too short to worry about what I might find in that ripply water. I just found what i quoted from you ironic from my point of view. Thats all nothing more.

^I'm just sick of seeing huge debates over the rotary vs. piston thing. Do I think rotaries should stay in rx7's? **** yes. Its just no point whatsoever in fighting over it because no matter what you do or say they'll keep doing it, and likely not to such an extent. Can you imagine what the v8 swapped guys would do if we just pretended their cars didn't exist? I think that is part of the allure behind it for some people.

Honestly, I feel more comfortable witha v8 then a rotary. What i am building is going to make me happy not you this is my car not yours so plz feel free to do what you want with your car.You wont see me saying how a rotary is bad or good in any thread, that isnt me but you seam to put your 2 cents about my build. Did I ever ask your thoughts on what im building? I have never knocked or put down a rotary motor at all . I think the 93 rx7 and new is one of the nicest body styles out there. If you like we can get into a pissing match back and forth but it will solve nothing . You have what you feel is right and as do I. But I have a offer for you not sure if you will take it or not since you do not drag race. Street or strip 1/4 drag race for ( we can keep it small if you like 1,000) its up to you . If you decline i do understand because your not a drag racer ( I would decline if you asked me to race autocross ) So it stands Drop it or take the offer.

I know a guy who has a v8 rx7 hes alrite.. nice guy. similar reasoning. its just a little ritual to give noobs to the forum a hard time i didn't mean anything by it.

How fast you hitting the clovers? Doing 75-80 you can tell the dip on the 69-30 but it is the only good one in town but it still has that dip in it and gets worse every year . But now the 1k is a little longer this year and 400 hp to the rear wheel i dont think it will corner as well LOL. The busa, i got tired of dragging pipe on the ground with it . So unless i buy a 07 1000 or borrow my buddys 1k i really wont be leafing that much this year .

keithrulz- I can understand if you like to bust the nerwbies ***** no harm no foul. I just dont like people basicly telling me im in the wrong for what i am doing. I can be a great guy or i can be your worst enemy. Not to brag but i travel all over the U.S. and race bikes, Not to mention that my last Shamrock creation was bought by a guy in saudi arabia for a chunk of change. I can go on and on but there is no point. So we'll leave it at that.





Question who has the highest HP/ TQ dyno sheet in Indiana and what is the quickest RX-7 in Indiana? ( I like goals to shoot for )

the leafs are definately deteriorating thats for sure. they are fine as long as you have a semi soft suspension. i almost dont even bother anymore, my **** is way to stiff for anything thats has any substantial dips in it. 675lb springs dont like bumps unless you like catching air mid corners.... so whos gonna come out to some track events with me this season. i'm tired of being one of the few ft. wayners that hits up the track events...
