this is where we should all help eachother out , this is the most important part in drag racing to get off the line !!!!! first off i have to say that thedriveshaftshop.com pro axle kit is unbelievable and the factory mazda diff is hanging in there like a champ for now

haltech antilag 7850/7900 @ 18psi !!!!

thanks !!! the seals are "arinator" 3mm apex seals , the rotor housings are shot they were new in 2004 and prob got bout 5k miles on them if that but it's all abusive miles (boost) they have alot of chatter marks from some old 3mm single springs aftermarket seals that i was running back in 2004, so now it's time to put some new housings/ sideseals etc........ i jus wanted to get the suspension dialed in before i start making some power again ....... i think i'm ready !!!!!

Where you getting your car dynoed ? I bet your power is less then 633 with a trap of 133mph. Seems 100hp off with the weight of your car.

Congrats on the 60' thats awesome.. I need to cut those. Everyone trying to reclaim there spot on the list I see

well as for the rubbing issues i flared the fenders with a 5 pound soft hammer
and as for the suspension iv'e been working with rx7.com (ari) on some prototype drag coil overs that rx7.com will be releasing to the public in about a month or two we have been trying all kinds of springs /settings etc.... so that when they release it , it's a bolt on and go drag racing kit at an affordable price . i will be the 1st to say that this new kit that will be released soon is the **** !!!
