Ian, you don't have to put down any windows actually. You do have to open them for track schools at VIR, but not for an autocross.

Anyone see this:

Reminder to pay attention to how you put your wheels on. The story is that he got lug nuts that were wrong thread size or something. The car was essentially undamaged believe it or not. I know a few people online that saw it happen.... Just a reminder to make sure you do everything right in critical areas.

 

thanks calvin. then hopefully i can get off of work one sunday and make it out to pungo or something. we've had alot of people quit/retire at my job so its hard to get off now. and that video is pretty crazy.

hi locals, im pretty much new to the forum. my name is jeremy and from newport news. just drove up to jersey (long *** drive btw) this past weekend and picked up a FD. i used to own an s2000 and a nsx...this my first FD and i cant wait to start modding it




currenty, i have a really rough idle...it bounces up and down all the time then when the idle stops bouncing it idles constant at a high rpm. it has a apexi fc and i was told that the fc is learning,but anyways i have no idea what the problem is. if i can meet up with someone local that can help with this issue, ill pay for your time. any help would be appreciated.

thanks,
Jeremy

 

Bouncy idle can be a number of things. Vac leak, TPS needs adjustment, etc. I would adjust the TPS to within spec (you can see the voltage values via the PFC) and adjust the idle with the 2 idle screws. If you need a hand, let me know. I'm off all week, but I have the kids.

 

thanks...pm sent ur way

 

My garage is getting closer. I just took these this morning. They are doing the roof and vinyl siding as I am posting here.....

UIM removal tutorial:
http://www.clubrx.org/default.asp?id...ntent=63&mnu=5

If you have a moment, you might want to play with the idle adjustment screw that I showed you to try to calm down the engine surging till the UIM gasket gets replaced.

 

hey jeremy. welcome to the forum and to owning an RX-7.
was your NSX white with takata harnesses by any chance, if so I saw it at best buy one day.

Jerry the garage and the porsche both look awesome.

 

thanks. same here. i appreciate your help. i learned quite a bit. yea im gonna order that uim gasket today.

 

thanks...yea that was it

 

just found out my rear passenger caliper is shot! pistons in it dont work anymore. anyways anyone have an extra rear passenger caliper for sale....i need one asap.

 

How do you know it's bad? Yes, this may be a stupid question...

 

They can be rebuilt , alot cheaper than buying a new one . I have a set of front , but they are getting ready for powder coating and going up for sale--- E bay . Let me know if I can help , and if you are looking for help with the idle problem , contact 20B3rd gen . I'd try to help , but my schedule is totally crazy right now and I dont want to hold you up . Pm me if I can help I try to check this site daily.

ok guys, I need a master power window switch for a s5 vert. I havent decided which car I will drive home from tennessee, but if I drive the vert, I will need a swtch ASAP, since the window wont go up and with rain, well, you guys know the drill. Anyway this car is sweet, all black, paint looks great, buts has some hail damage, nothing major and the inside looks like it was never driven. So if any parts guys have one, I think I have an s4 switch back in virginia, so if it works then I will be good. I will be at the meet on the 12, as long as I dont have duty.

 

long time no talky guys and im sorry about that. Jerry Ill be calling you tomorrow. Ive been organizing finances and focusing on my upcoming semester so i haven't had a chance to talk to ya. Ill try and call you this week if its not a problem. I miss you guys and i look forward to getting the 7 on the road legally (have to slap on a cat and mount my new tires, replace idler arm bussings all that fun ya know? anyways ill talk to ya guys soon hopefully with news of me comming to a meet finally!

later ~Dwayne

 

nice Jerry.......

 

i jacked up the rear end and had the ebrake off so see what was wrong with my rear end and i could barely turn my rear passenger wheel. feels like turning a lugnut almost. i got a shop to take the caliper off and see if they could fix it but they said pretty much i need a new one or get that one rebuilt. but i just ordered a new one. should get here friday.

 

DOH!!!! Sounds expensive.

Don't forget, the rear caliper pistons screw in and out.
