After fixing alota pits in the fiberglass i got my convertible primed wet sanded and ready to burn. (again lol)
|
Got a OMP rebuild kit, and FD oil return gasket from pineapple to fix the rest of my oil leaks. Tried to keep traction in the rain well I kinda tried. eather way epic fail on traction :)
Edit forgot I still need to replace the pinion seal in the rear end, but thats just a little leak. |
Jacked up the 7, Removed the rear subframe, installed LSD Fuck the Open diff. pics will bein my build thread.

I fab'd a coolant drain petcock. Drained all my rusty water out of my coolant system, threw in some prestone coolant system cleaner + distilled water. Gunna run around with that for a while, then flush it, do it once more, then flush + put in some rust prohibitor. Then flush + fill with mostly distilled water, water wetter + a bit of coolant.
Still on the list - swap cat + stock DP for corksport exhaust, replace differential pinion seal, crush tube + pinion bearing. Not looking forward to that part.... |
tore the motor open, found a nut completely stuck in the front rotor:/ gunna clean and paint up the irons and housing in a bit, need solvent. then its just waitin on mazadatrix so i can put it all back together
|
Recieved all parts to complete the beast... well almost all. Still gotta build a header. Need pipe.
|
Complete the beast!.....Complete the beast!.....Complete the beast!.....Complete the beast!.....
|
Took another look at my cooling system. I'm still trying to figure out wtf is messed up with it....... I keep getting bubble in the system. I think the water is boiling when I drive (TONS of rust in there) then the bubble make an air pocket at the top. Before I start it I open up the rad cap + it always goes pshhhh, you can see the main hose shrink a bit too. Maybe time for a new, clean rad.
|

Lost the cherry to her cigarette, fell onto my oil rag. burnt a little interior behind the seat, car was filled with smoke so it kinda smells now (almost got it fixed) burnt the seat belt. My T2 was fairly nice, now I'm gonna have mismatched seat belts cause I needed it. I've already found a new carpet. I'm not happy. I really should broke out the rule of thumb and grabbed a switch.
I did make her vacuum the fire extinguisher dust all up and clean my car. I'm gonna catch her purse on fire. I'll vacuum it up. I've also dubbed her the "car bomber" |
Just swap the interior to be gray man. :p

Well, after 3 days with a toothbrush and 5 gallon bucket of gasoline, I finally got the 13b 6 port clean enough to install. (except the oil pan) I'll do that tonight. Also used JB Weld and a couple dimes to plug the holes in my intake where I removed the port actuators.
|
Well This is my First what I did today to my RX7.. Met up with Installer67 to pay half of the Motor cost. Must say< very impressed. then went to the shop and took a look at all the other stuff I need to get ready for the motor swap. I want this to be a smooth deal.
|

I got my SA up on jacks and ramps and pressure washed underneath...She is looking good for being over 30..

Found a nice fuel leak from my new Mallory fuel pump. Probably been leaking since I installed it. LOL Just figured the gas smell was the typical FB perfume. But I got stuck sitting still for 15 minutes in a construction zone and started getting dizzy. Got her lined out now though. Also got my oil pan and dizzy cleaned up on the SE motor and installed my injector plug kit. Just gotta get the oil cooler lined out and I'm ready for the swap! Anyone know offhand where to get some fittings to convert the banjos on an fc cooler to AN fitting?
|
Got the oil return sealed up. Hopfully I'm done with oil leaks, also rebuilt my OMP, but broke a banjo fitting (I always brake somthing!) so for now its pluged with a 12MM bolt, and I"m premixing. also replaced the batery leads, and added another ground to the front of the engine.

Got the racing beat header installed last week so now I have a full header-back exhaust system. Right after I had the header installed I took it for a drive and everything was fine, I drive it the next day and every time I get to 4k there is hesitation, but now it only does this occasionally. There is also some vibration near the center console around 1-3k. Ugh every time I do something to this car something breaks :wallbash:
