Rotary Woes and Rotary Go's

I should of made the BBQ, but dad cracked the whip on Saturday for me to work on Sunday for him. On top of that, a couple ACV's broke in the FD. After only having the car for 1 year and having it down, off and on, I finally came to realization that I need to put some serious work into my car. So it's official, the start of the FD project is beginning.

Plans - To build a drag monster yet still streetable

I want to run about 400-450 whp on pump gas 500+ on C16. I want it to run at least 12's, but with 500 whp I might hit 11's. The car will be stripped to bare necessities. Audio Equipment is going out the window along with A/C, Cruise Control, and anything else I want to pull out. Now that I have a different Daily Driver I can focus some serious attention on the car itself.

I'll keep everyone posted and try making the monthly meetings more frequently.

Anyways just my 2 cents.

Hey, what interior color do you have and are you planning on removing the passenger side panel? If it's tan and the passenger grab handle still intact would you part with it?

I'm actually thinking about leaving the doors intact. It's also a black interior, with the beige carpet and seats.

Uhhh ohhh...so what is your setup going to be? I agree 500 on drag radials should be well into the 10's unless you can't drive and we know that is not true!
