Anyone else here besides myself?

I moved my family and I up here at the first of the year. Just looking to see if there is anyone else here??????

Not sure when your going to check this again, it was down a ways. There are a few rotaries in SD. I live in Sioux Falls. If your really into the car scene check out www.siouxfallsracing.com or www.605racing.com They are good places to get to know some of the local gearheads.

 

Thanks, I'll check those sites out now.

So what do you have? Race at all? Or just a street machine?

 

This particular TII I am building for my son. He is helping a little, but it is more to spend time with him. He's only 10 right now. It will mostly street duty, but I will play a little a drag strip, when ever I can get there (I understand there is one not too far Vermillion, but it is a little close to SF, SD). It is a big street port, BNR stage III turbo, FMIC, dropped the EFI to go blow through side draft Weber, converting the car back to a distributor engine instead of a CAS, full suspension, brakes, exhaust, custom interior, and a whole bunch of other stuff that he wanted.

This is a mild build compared to what I usually do. I've been working on and building rotaries since 1986, and have owned 22 RX7s. I've tried to leave them alone, but before I know it, I have another one or two at my house. Now, my younger son is wanting to build something together, after this TII is finished, so I may have another project started there.

What about yourself?

 

73 RX2. Nothing flashy other then the paint. Street potred 12A with a Weber IDA carb. It was built as an autocross car back in the 80's and has been ever since. I just updated the springs and shocks, new seals and bearings in the rear axle, after market radiator and oil cooler.








In the pits at a race in Mazda row.


In the shop during the transmission swap.

I love the car. The interior was stripped out years ago and is long gone. Its built to SCCA EP classing. She is a fun little car.

 

very nice.

 

Thank you. The paint drives me nuts though. In the next couple of years I want to strip it down and repaint it.

 

It's not my taste, but the car appears to be in great shape. It is always good to see someone taking care of a classic.

 

Here is my 87 T2 i live in rapid city

 

Saw you over at 605racing. Glad to see a few of up here. I was beginning to wonder. The only other RX7 that I've seen around here is a 87 GXL pushed off in the bushes. Once the snow finally melts down here, I am going to swing by and see if the old timer would part with it. My other son is wanting to start a build when this one is finished.

 

I'm looking at picking up a 79 RX7 with a periphial ported 12A, if the wife and I don't pick up the Dastsun 2000 roadster we stumbled across.

 

Peripheral port FTW!!!

 

i may not be a rotor guy but i love RX7's

 

still think we need to get a Strictly Mazda Meet and do it in pierre and have a big BBQ and ****
