UNderstand that.. I thin next week is the last one BTW, so if your car is ready in 2 weeks ... well wait till next year. But you can still make my autocross school :-)

 

need some suggestions!!! i've been out of country for a while, my stock twins went out right before i left. i'm back now and i'm hating to see my car sitting in front of my house. i'm worried to bring it to anyone around here cause i don't know where to go. does anyone have suggestions for any good machanic that has a good rep for working on turbos? thanks for the help

Mazdaformance.com has brand new Mazda turbos for 93-95's on a clearance now. Go to:

http://www.mazdaformance.com/

and you will notice that it says 50% off.

Then you go to RX7 then to Clearance and you will see the turbos down near the bottom. If I read it correctly, the final price is about $1400. Can't be bad for new ones, can it?

 

Thanks Calvin, I'm Going To Check It Out. Now, Do You Know Anyone That Is Good In The Area To Install Them?

 

Will at Autodemics, but he is located in Great Bridge (Chesapeake)

 

Anyone witness any of Will's street cars? Or heard anthing about them? Looks like he's just starting up buisness.

 

I have seen some they have done, but I can't really say anything about them. The cars looked OK.

If you are looking for turbo people I have often heard good things about Millenium Autosports, and I like the guy that runs the place. But they are a Honda shop, so that is a negative, but they can speak rotary.... I would still suggest Will though.

 

thanks for the info, i'm going to give him a call. hopefully i can be up and running soon!!!

 

I Know someone who just got as SE and wants to go to the next meet. Where In the Ham Sandwich Is it? Thanks

 

Looks like this is the next one planned:

-------------------------------------

Jillian's is on the Second floor of Waterside, just in case you didn't know. It is a video game bar in case you have never been. Kind of a cool place.

I am working on a meet here in the near future:

http://www.gforcekarts.com/index2.htm

Basically it is an indoor kart racing place with a nice meeting room they say use can use the room for any sort of meeting. I haven't got a date scheduled yet, so if you have a good idea of a good date for it, let me know.

 

I just rebuilt an 86 Sport with an 89 motor, and started autocrossing. Unfortunately the tires I have SUCK, but they'll do for the street. I'm looking for some 5 lug GXL wheels to put some autocross tires on - anyone have some they want to let go for cheap?

Where have you run so far? I was out at the Little Creek event. I plan to go to (at least Saturday) the event on Oct 2-3 at Pungo. The 5 bolt rim bolt pattern is fairly common. I don't know what the rim offset is, but 5 bolt Nissans, Fords, and DSM's have the same bolt pattern. If you are running in Street Prepared where you can change rim size check out those as possible sources for cheap rims. If you are running stock, you need to stay with stock diameter, width and offset (+-0.25").

 

anyone commin up here for the seafood fest? i will let you park at my house

 

Anyone who knows poquoson knows of all the great food , I would not miss it for anything

Later

 

I finished the break-in just in time to go the Evolution driving school phases 1 and 2 at Pungo in August. If I'm in town this weekend, I'll try to make at least one event. I was in NC during the last ODR Autocross, and I was trying to get a second set of rims for better tires - Falken Azenis Sports - prior to racing again. The tires that were on the car are some el-cheapo Pep Boys specials - they're fine on the street, but oh-my-god are they ever bad on the track.

The plan was to run stock class with this car, but the mod bug might bite me sooner than I think.

 

That is cool. Look forward to seeing you there. My engine rebuild took a setback recently. Rotor houseing I thought were good turned out not to be. I have some pitting around the outside O-ring that may prove to be a showstopper. We'll see.

 

i hope this fest will be better than last year (no floodin)

 

bah. nothing some jb weld and some mothers polish can't fix.

dale

 

When is the Seafood Fest? My wife and I have gone in the past. It is a good deal.

JB weld might actually work on this rotor housing... I just have some pits in the cooling jacket... That is not what I am going to try to do... but it might actually work.. It is at the outside O-ring, but near the exhaust port.

 

15-17 ill be up there pretty much everyday

 

Yeah man, Will at AutoDemics is awesome. He's got my car right now. I was just having a GReddy FMIC put in until we noticed a little blow-by. Now he's rebuilding it for a great price, and his own RX-7 is bad-***! If you can afford a bit extra for new turbos, I'd suggest the '99 j-spec turbos. You can get them at rx7.com for $2,495. Not bad for such great turbos.

 

Anyone besides me and Nathan going to the autocross school (Saturday) and/or the autocross (Sunday) this weekend? If so I plan to have my car there, look for me. It should be a fun time.

BTW, how did things go Wedensday night at Langley? Did you win Kenny?

 

I'll be at the school, but I don't want to compete on sunday... you'll know why when you see my tires. I have a set of Yoko AVS comin next week, so I'll run in November's Ax. I still love the seat time the schools give, even if the car is sliding all over the place.

Pete

 

Cool there will at least be some RX7's out there. I have been told that the entire ODU Formula SAE team is going to be there. Maybe we can do something to make them faster at next years FSAE championships. I wonder if they are bringing the formula car.

 

I wanted to come, but I can't afford it. They had to put the driving shool on a week where I don't get paid. Oh well, maybe another time. Just installed the RB holley kit, and a holley blue fuel pump, regulator, and a liquid filled Pressure gauge. Oh my, what a difference from the stock Nikki. Still, I think it's too much carb. Soon as I get som $$ saved, a Sterling will be on the way.
