I list my internet and am using ine of my girls phones to update and post for right now kinda a pain in the *** I am having ignitor problems I think. I picked up two more yesterday from a friend I'll see if they work tomorrow but I think it's in my harness. I got new rims I got with tons of other parts I'm using to pay for them and the tien coilovers I am putting on. I should have the car on the road to make it to the rotards meet.

What issues are you having? I've been forced to become pretty familiar with 2nd gen wiring with Joe's project and after swapping in a T2 into my FB. Soooo... what's up?

I'm back!!!

Update It runs took me a few coil packs but found a working one, water pump took a dump 5 minutes later so still not driving it. I've got the caddy with flowmasters. lol. this thing is rediculous, but I really like it. sounds mean, its cofortable, not a bad deal for 750. all that was wrong was the ignition system was junk. 4 fouled plugs, still ran just not well. did a compression test 155-160 psi all 8.

so I couldn't get the teins, ran out of cash... but I have new to me staggered (8.5'' fronts 9.5" rears) enkie 3 peices from the man. thanks agian. I love these rims. Also got a AEM tru boost, matches my aem uego wideband nicely. RB aluminum drive line.

My volkswagen is faster than your vert. S5 Vert = the slowest rx7 ever made. at least I don't drive an old lady car.

Anyways, finally got around to working on her. Got water pump and housing off, cleaned all the road grime off the front cover. Need a water temp gauge, so I'm holding off till friday when I have cash. Wish I could afford the aem one to match my other gauges, but whatever. Got all the wires ran for my guages. I decided to make a whole new circuit. with relay and fuse for my gauges rather than the ghetto way. I have the scramble boost switch on the center consol. I put the overboost light on the gauge pod. Looks pretty sweet. mounted the solinoid for the boost controller on the strut tower, as close to the turbo and waistgate as I could.

So I may hold off till I can get the gauge I want. I really don't wan't to have to pull it back apart untill I have to. I still need to find a place to mount the leading coil, and have my bov relocated so I can shut the hood....

I have some bi colored turn signals. now also.

Lol your Golfs driver door is held on with a bungee cord.
You've never even raced my 'vert anyway.

Don't be acting like some Honda ricer.

So Basicly the project is done. just need bov rewelded so I can shut the hood. and need to get these tires mounted. I'd take them too school but I'm scared about ******* up the enkies.
Got a bunch of new parts. I'll shoot pics and do a updated mod list asap.

Update. I got hood shut, car runs, Small pinhole in the 300 dollar radiator.... fixed it with by clamping off the passage. Took a small test drive. just a few odds and ends. gauges, all in. getting a few more parts in the next few weeks. still need to tear down the rear end and replace some bushings, and diff front seal. Its all white but all slightly differant. LOL needs paint.

I have a unknown 6 puck clutch, was used, but only slightly. has a red pressure plate. Seems to grip well but its very light. I think I had a stock clutch but that basterd was heavy. Anyone know if six pucks are really light as far as peddle force goes? The clutch itself is much lighter than the original. but I'm talking pressure. Witch I assume is in the pressure plate. I didn't drive it very hard so not sure how it will hold upto actuall spirted driving. I pressed the gas, but not too much. been awhile didn't wan't to blow it.
