Ok The location is correct. AMF York Lanes. At 4:00 PM.

Sorry I didn't get to setting up the date sooner. Bring you ***** (bowling ***** that is).

Be there or be square.

Lots of guys have said they would be there that are not on this site, so our turnout should be pretty good.

Sorry, I just got this. I'm heading out to PNP this morning. The time is now 8:35. If you call me by 9:00, I'll take you out there. I'll send you a PM and e-mail.\, provided I can (forum says you're an unregistered user).

have you looked at your turbo by taking it off the car?? i have a extra turbo here HOWEVER it needs to be rebuilt...the exhaust blades are trashed this turbo sounds like a pissed off kittycat LOL some of the guys know what it sounds like =P.

can you go into more detail as to why the car wont start? is it flooding? no spark? no fuel ? need more details bud. stock EFI?

is the motor turning with the starter? does the motor turn freely?

do you know how to test your trailing and leading coil packs?

or do you have spare trailing and leading coil packs for testing? if not i have spare ones of those too.

for some reason i want to think its a VAC leak...

can you keep the motor running by holding the gas pedal down? or will it still idle down and die that way also?

if you still cant get her running PM me your phonenumber. Id like to offer some help i might be able to help you out on the weekend.

my college has me hella busy with tons of homework.... " ATI". im working to getting my ASE certification.

thats what i have been thinking
we had the car so i would idle for a few minutes then kill its self
but after doing alot of test its hard to start..meaning it wont idle
im buying a turbo tomorrow and it should be in in a few days

i put a apex gt spec system on it
crap started happening like the car would not run good as in not over 20 mph and it would take a long time for the car to rev up when i had full throtle
stock intake with mas
the turbo is now not spooling up , i think it is shoot there is oil everywhere in the piping
before i did anything to the car like a month ago when i would drive the car and when i would accerlate hard the car would bunny hop at high rpms and the turbo would bunny hop
a few of my friends and people on the fourm are saying its more then likely a VAC leak. i have checked just about everywhere but i cant find it
hopefully it will be the turbo seal is makign the car run like crap and when i replace it everything will go back to the normal,

i have checked the coils both trailing and leading
crank angle sensor
all rubber hoese
changed spark plus
tested alot of the electronis with multimeter
re-grounded the engine to the firewall

Saying Hello...

Got pointed to this thread and thought I would drop in and say whats up. I live in Hampton Roads, but am new to the boards here. I am in the middle of a search for an FC RX7 (looking to find one somewhere in VA). Looking for a running, not heavily modified RX 5-speed. Want to use as a daily driver/wrench turning car (I just finished a vintage resto and am done with really old cars for now).
