P.S. The re car is still the touge champ. That video that is posted with the feed car doesnt tell you one important detail. The re car is a follow car to get the race video from the rear. You mean to tell me that you couldnt tell that just by watching the video? Plus i hear that thing is single turbo tuned to somewhere around 350-380whp.

Hello everyone! It has been awhile since I posted pics of my FD project. Here is the car with all the RE Amemiya parts installed. Hope everyone likes the build so far!
Currently motor is pretty much stock. Parts that I have waiting for install is an ARC intercooler, ARC Radiator, RE Amemiya Type B ECU.
I was wondering with 91 pump gas what would I need to do to replicate the horsepower of the Touge Monster’s with stock twins? Should I use the RE Amemiya ECU I have or get an Apexi? What additional parts would I need? Any advice would be great!

HKS Dual air intake
Power Fc and Commander
Apexi AVCR
HKS Hi Power Exhaust
Hks Downpipe (3" all the way back, no cats)
Solid motor mounts, A/c removed, carbon fiber Hood (Painted) Carbon trunk (Painted)

Wow, I'm impressed so far. Your car looks phenomenal. And the RE RX7 your replicating is the one that I also would like to replicate. If only money grew on trees...
Keep it up.
Keep it up.

It was only the J's Racing S2000 that defeated the undefeatable RE-Amemiya Rx7 in the touge battle at Gunsai:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-mm2ia7B9g
Since it is raining, if you observe closely, you can see that RE-Amemiya Rx7 is having grip/ traction problems at the rear. The rear tires lose traction which makes the tail slide through the corner exits. Judging from the sound of the engine, even at the straight-aways, you call tell that the tires slip on the wet pavement indicating that they don't have much wet road traction.
I suppose they made a wrong choice in their tire setup, giving J's Racing a lucky shot for the win.
Although defeated before, just recently, Re-Amemiya was able to grab the title of Touge Monster from the J's Racing S2000 with a knockout victory:

Sorry to revive a dead thread but has anyone been able to get the specs on this car? I'm also one of those guys looking to replicate the car to some degree and interested to know if the car is on 99 twins or small single.

The RE FD is running 92-98 stock twins ported and modified. You can get them modified from Knight Sports or RE. Being as I'm in Japan I'ma just send mine to RE or Knight Sports eventually and pay the I think its 3,000$. The 99-02 turbos do make more power and are are better turbos until you modify them.
I talked to a rotary shop here in Okinawa, the owner who has experience with modified turbos and he said usually they wont even modify the 99+ turbos as they wont last long are are very unstable after modifying them and he also suggested me keeping the 92 spec turbos and having them modified. He has been building tuned rotarys since the 70s so I'll take his word.
If you want fast straight line obviousy we all know single is the way to go. I want to keep as close reliable and quick as possible so I'm staying twin with my street ported enginge. I'll try to find out more details however if you guys want them as to what all is done to the car if you guys would like. And I will see if he knows what all is done to the car as well.
This guy is one of the best along with my 2 friends that I have talked to, to gain knowledge about these cars since I purchased my car 3 months ago. So since I am still new I am going by what other people told me based on their experience not mine so don't flame etc.. just sharing knowledge that I was told based on their experience.

I just watched the 2011 touge championship vol. 111.
Highlights-
420hp stock twins RE Amemiya FD beats all including 800hp R35 skyline.
Fujitsu/Feed FD doesn't make it to event.
I remember last year when someone from RE Amemiya announced on this forum they were producing 420rwhp on stock '92-98 twins and was met with skepticism.
