I done several auto to manual swaps, including my rx-4. I can't give you a price unto I see whats left and what you have done, but I will help if I can. I can drive out and see what you have left to do if you'd like. Give a me PM with you number and I'll give you a call. The only thing I'm doing today is going to Pick-N-Pull.

 

Sup guys i am just now geting around to posting on here but i have been talking with a few plp out in the real world abot this alot. Someone told me you all are geting together on the 16th?? if so would like some more info on it. As well with that i am stumped on something that is going on with my car. I JUST got done doing a rebuild and got everything going. When i did get it started it would not hold its own ldle and we had to keep it at about 2200-2500 it keep it runing DUreing this time it sound fine to me all tho its been years from the last time i have had a RX running next to me. We ended up haveing to shut it down due to a over heat in the Y pipe yes i said the Y pipe was glowing red and we cut it off asap. Now i have worked on alot of cars in my life and seen a ton of Cat's glowing in my life but fo rthe mid pip cat's to be all gtg and the Y pipe glowing its a 1st. If anyone has any ideas on this plz let me know with a PM and or here thanks a ton guys and like i said i hope to see you all in the 16th with my RX running!.

This is where our events are currently kept up to date:

http://rx7.meetup.com/55/

That site had the tools to easily post events..... The details for the event are not final. Check there and you will know what is happening.

In the near future, this will be our only web site:

http://www.hamptonroadsrotaryclub.com

But to be honest I need to spend more time on the hampton roads rotary club site.

 

you should post this on the 2nd gen forum for mosre help???

just my 2 cents

 

You need to check if your exhaust is not clogged up, you cats might be bad, plugging your engine causing it to overheat. Disconnect your exhaust. The ghetto way of fixing it is to gut/hollow out all your cats..........You are lucky it didn't catch fire.

HOw about that in English , hahahahha

 

I guess I find it really strange to me that those carbs work on a rotary. I used to have several of them, but I sold them off to guys with Morgans and TVRs.

 

hey, i own a 94 fd and will soon be looking for someone to build my motor. i am going to a single turbo and want to go ahead and build a motor at the same time. if anyone has any suggestions send me a pm.

 

Hey, does anyone have a 2nd gen upper intake gasket they want to get rid of? If so, I WANT IT. Please PM me.

 

chris i still have some extra gasket maker if you need some and or if you want i could order a gasket from the dealer at my price..... take your pic bud

 

This is what i thought about as well but the glowing is comeing After the the cats and thats the Odd part i have seen cats befor get all gumed up and glow but never have i seen the "Y" pipe i am going to run a scope down it tonight to make surer there is nothing in there but i do not think there is we will see. Thanks guys. i will care this post over to the 2ed gen part as well.

hey guys. i was wondering if anyone knows of a good places to get a decent paint job. the 79 has a bit of surface rust on the hood and i want to get it reprimed and painted before it gets any worse.

 

you can do it yourself if you wanted . i always do lol . or you can try macco or earl shcibes?

 

i will check into one of them probably. i dont have time to do it myself though. i wish i did because then i could make sure i got everything right.

 

I'd suggest at least giving Dale Blankenship a call at the Maaco on Pembroke. He owns a first gen RX7, and is an autocrosser and a friend of mine (feel free to tell him that I sent you there) for more than 25 years. Hw is a member here, but doesn't visit that often and on hamptonroadrotaryclub.com. They can do really good work there. Not exactly car show quality, but it will be fairly priced and he will give you your money's worth. I don't have the phone number, but it is on whitepages.com

 

hey thanks alot calvin. sounds great. im not looking for fantastic, i just want some better protection. i have alot of little spots of rust on the hood and i want to take care of it before it becomes a problem
