Well i am in belleuve, and i currently have a ls1 rx7. I have nothing against rotorys just wanted to do the swap. But it looks like i am not allowed to any of the meets so just wondering if any body would just want to get a cruise with me together for fun. I would like to ride in a powerfull rotory. Looking to see whos on the eastside with rx7s here are some pic of my whip. Before and after.

 

holy hell, nice restoration. very clean

 

did someone say you're not welcome at the april 7th meet?

 

Anyones welcome at our meets, we have monthly meets at izzys pizza in olympia every 2nd monday of the month at 7 pm

 

No one said i was welcome they just mostly say rotory meet so i just didnt know, not trying to show off or offend anyone you know. just want to make friends LOL. But i will be drifting this car when the track opens up so just looking for other fc owners to kick it with

 

I would say yes to hanging out sometime, but the car's still in limbo....
I need to order a transmission, put the suspension bushings, T2 diff in, and get the shocks ordered. hopefully by the end of next month I'll have it done. just been feeling broke.
I plan on hitting the drag strip sometime in april too

 

do u still have the turbo motor????

 

****, bring it on, and us 1st gens like to drift a little also. remember, all the meets, drives, bbq's, and tech days are for all cars. pissed on or not. hell, pretty soon i'll be rollin a 302 1st gen. ha ha ha. but need a few things taken care of first. so feel free to show up at izzy's. or any of the other get togethers we have.

by the way, that engine looks good tucked in there.

 

Thanks man,
yea i will try and make it to the next meet for sure. I do not have the turbo rotory, I sold that back in june

 

Christ, its a rotary meet only in spirit, half the time, I have to bring the DD. Nice clean install BTW, whats torque really like?

 

ITS GUUURREEATT, what i love most about it is i made 340 to the wheels at 3300 rpms and made 350foot pounds of torque at 2700 pounds. Also the car weighs 187 pounds lighter from the swap and stripping the back. Also got 28 mpg when i drove it to Idaho over the summer.

 

Im in Seattle yo and thats not too far from Bellevue at all. Hit me up some time, my car isnt running yet but if you wanna help with some wrenching or just to bs let me know.

 

i hate u, lol. lightened it and got better gas mileage! with a fricken V8!!! argh

 

Hey boostmr2, I think you live close to a buddy of mine in Newcastle. He's got a G35 sedan and a Lexus SUV. I'd like to check out your car sometime, looks like you did a great job from the pictures.

 

mine won't get that mileage, I'm running an auto. I wish I had a 0.5:1 OD.







look familiar?

 

silly v8s all ur moving parts n what not lol jk

 

Nice car =)

I'm at UW right now, but I'm back on the weekends fairly often. Just have a bone stock N/A FC right now (have got 4 pot calipers/5 lug conversion, looking for wheels), but planning on an LS1 swap when I get the opportunity to do so. I usually go backroad driving around Fall City/Preston/Snoqualmie, we can go for a bit of touge sometime perhaps =P

 

sigh......

 

atleast they chose a decnt motor that will hold together pretty well vs a 5.0 this is what was left of my 302 out of my 5.0mustang

 

Built FORD tough, holy ****, what happened to it.

 

10lbs of boost. the factory blocks are a thin wall casting and are only good for about 400hp n/a and less with boost. it was running on the edge of its limits it was a granade waiting to go off anyways

 

Now THAT is a cracked block! Holy begebiz!

 

every motor has limits at which things go boom, even the LS1. stay within them and you'll have a lot of fun, push them & things get expensive, fast.

 

Little JB weld, little polish, it'll be fine.

 

Your very right every engine does have its limit, and every engine can be expensive depending on what you do.
