damn has this become idle.... what the hell has been going on with all the 7's in this state? i swear i seen more for sale on craigslist than on the road!

Andy87t2 08-05-10 09:38 AM

they are all ending up in central mass! haha. Anyone have a sub frame for an fc? preferably with 5 lug hubs(and shitty struts). i want my 10ae to be a roller by the end of summer...

swbtm 08-08-10 06:49 PM

I haven't seen many sevens in NH for a while... if anyone is interested in an FB shell i'm selling her with as many parts that will fit in the rolling chassis. Listing is in the For Sale section.

tworotorguy 08-09-10 06:51 PM

seems to have died down. im sure like everyone else money played a roll in that. i seen a nice 1st gen in loudon dont know whos it its, and does anyone know what the deal is with the red 1st gen sittin in the grass on the side of 107 in fremont?

Hi,
I live in the Derry NH area and I have an 85 GS. I dont see many rex's around here. I would love to go to a meet sometime and see what everyone does to their cars. I am fairly new the the rotary scene and have owned my rex for a year. Its in pretty decent shape for its age and runs great with no rust. Only mods I have done are header exhaust, cat removal, rebuilt slighty modded nikki with mech secondaries, and other mechanical things to get the car running as it should. Its nice to have a forum like this to reach out to others with the same interests.

tworotorguy 08-11-10 02:33 PM

hey jbn7474 sounds like you done pretty much the same things as ive done to my 85 gsl, exept i just rebuilt my carb and yeh i hate vac secondaries, but have em lol. i have my TII engine all set to go in her though, gettin the gsl-se oil pan was fine but i cant find a used gsl-se front cover cheap anywhere so im at a snag there. but i guess i can just work on fabricating the gxl fuel tank baffle and sending unit into the gsl tank this fall, as im crossing my fingers i can have this swap mostly done by next summer. i wouldnt mind havin a small get-together soon in like manch or sumthin, id love to check out your gs....

jbn7474 08-11-10 04:22 PM

Hey Tworotorguy,
Sounds like you have a nice project going there. I'm sure your car will be badass with that TII swap. I hope you find your neccessary parts to make the rest of it happen. I would be up for a meet in Manch to check out each others Rex's. I really want a Sterling carb bad, but the wait is so long for one right now. I contacted Dennis and he4 said like 8-10 weeks. I suppose it isnt that bad, but to pay for something and wait that long just doesnt justify things right now. The Racing beat Holly setup is just to darn expensive too and I dont think the power increase will justify a grand for the carb, fuel pump, etc. My friend did reccomend a ram air type set up with a small low profile hood scoop and matching the air cleaner to the duct to allow cooler airflow into the carb. that might be the cheaper route to gain a wee bit more power like a cold air intake.

swbtm 08-12-10 01:26 PM

Hey jbn,

If you're serious about going to a holley, I have a 465 holley sitting around unused in Mason. Definitely would not be as expensive as buying directly from racing beat but you would need the intake and a good tune to make things run properly. Just a thought.

tworotorguy 08-13-10 06:39 PM

hey jbn7474 is your rx-7 red? i saw a red one gettin on 93n today from exit 5 in londonderry........

Hi Tworotorguy, nope that wasnt mine. Mine is black with a grey targa 7 band on the roof and a whale tail in the back. Its nice to hear of another in the area. Was it a first gen.? Hey Swbtm, just curious how much you want for that Holley 465?

swbtm 08-15-10 10:35 AM

Hey jbn,

Thinking around $200, it needs a tune. Other than that it is in good shape. I can get general pics immediately and detail pics a couple weeks from now. It's sitting in NH and i'm in NJ.

Have a good one

jbn7474 08-15-10 10:15 PM

Hey Swbtm, Does the Holley Carb come with the air cleaner too. When you say it needs a tune are you reffering to a rebuild? Or are you reffering to jet changes? I would like to see a couple of pics if possible. Does it have vacuum sencondaries?

swbtm 08-16-10 08:23 PM

Hey jbn,

A tune would most likely mean jet changes and metering block adjustments. I bought a hop up kit (new gaskets, floats and all) just after I started work on the entire rebuild process, tore down the carb and did not see any major build up in the passageways. I replaced all the gaskets and put her back together. When I installed it back on my newly rebuilt sp 12a it would only go about 15mph before leaning out and sputtering... so I ended up buying another racing beat holley. (at the time it seemed to be a good idea... now I know it just needed to be adjusted for the larger ports, it wasn't bridging enough fuel from the primaries to the secondaries... oh well live and learn) I've attached the closest shot I have of the carb... it is a little dusty from sitting around for months, it will clean up though.

Unfortunately I only have one air cleaner and that it in use currently. I do have a jdn factory 12a turbo kit that I will be installing hopefully this winter so that might free up the air cleaner... but that is only if I can find a garage in NJ in which to do the work.

Hope this helps

NHjoeFC 08-28-10 02:14 PM

tworotorguy 08-28-10 05:22 PM

NHjoeFC 08-28-10 05:47 PM

Yeah that would make sense haha, i saw my same exact car one day on route 16 up near north conway, 88 convertible we kinda stared at eachother for a moment

ShadowArtsFC3S 08-28-10 09:50 PM

swbtm 08-30-10 12:52 PM

Hey tworotor, I have an 83 gsl roller... there's a thread in the FS section

https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generation-rx-7-1979-1985-vehicles-109/fs-1983-gsl-parts-car-minus-engine-914845/

sadly the car would have to go along with the tail lights :)

swbtm, id so buy that just to keep around, but my '85 needs nothing but new tailights lol, go figure... the one on the drivers side is new, the passenger side one is complete, but looks like someone glued the lens back on, so the whole thing is yellow looking. wanna trade lol! whos damn red one is this just wasting away on the side of rt107 in fremont?

jbn7474 09-04-10 08:30 PM

Hi all, is anyone from NH going to trek down to that big car show in Bridgeport Ct. on the 19th? I heard its all old school import cars with our RX's representing too. I am thinking about venturing down since there doesnt seem to be any big meets up this way. I think our state should represent some RX's down there.

tworotorguy 09-06-10 11:25 AM

i dont think ill be going down there, i dont have any free time. whos got the red fc in concord with the white hood? i see it all the time...

swbtm 09-06-10 07:26 PM

hey tworotor, no worries about having a complete car already. I'm almost to that point myself. I do have a bunch of parts to go along with the car though. If you know of anyone that needs em let me know.

I might be able to drive up to CT for that meet. Where can I find details?

ByeByeSti 09-08-10 08:42 PM

synaptic 3 is our NE sponsor and there having a meet and cookout on september 12th in candia. anyone on here going? my FD wont be making it, but i will be

tworotorguy 09-12-10 08:54 AM

yep, they said rain or shine and its wet again lol. im gonna try to get there today, i hope....

tworotorguy 09-15-10 06:34 PM

tworotorguy 01-19-11 02:18 PM
