Dude it looks SICK SICK SICK!!! I LOVE IT!! If mine was painted i would show it but we're both down the same path Who makes the diffuser and wing?? I hope you don't mind but i might bite off the wing... and the diffuser if it'll fit around my Weldon pump setup.

Btw what color pearl did you go with? I put a gold pearl on my yellow Mustang that looks AMAZING in the sun!

 

Thanks! The CYM paint is a 3 stage paint from the factory so it already has pearl in it. They just added more. As for the exact color, i don't know. Just got back from DGRR, im beat!

 

the pearl is a midcoat ( effect ) and is part of the CYM paint code.
The person spraying the paint can control how heavy they want the midcoat/effect to be, lighter and it will appear more true yellow, heavier and it will give the car a heavier pearl or effect.


Looks good, I was commenting how the paint on the old parts looked pretty good im sure the new paint is even better.

 

car looked great in person....

one of the few drag cars that actually looks like a show car.....
He can take it to a event win 1st place in the car show, then win 1st on the track... lol...

a few from DGRRX

 

Thanks bro. Great meeting more NY crew!

 

Ernie looks fantastic! What brand hood is that? Fitment looks pretty spot on.

 

Seibon. (Scoot knock off) from the RX7store.

 

i could have not said it better myself. car looks even better in person. good luck this season!!! good to meet you ernie

 

Great meeing you too bro. Honestly I like your 7 better then mine so when ya wanna swap?!

 

Car looks great Ernie. Couple questions:

1. I remember seeing that you were planning a PP motor for 2010. Did that ever end up happening?

2. I seem to remember you had a stainless steel hot side for your current 42R. Is my memory correct, and if so, will that fit (or are you going to get one for) your net GTXR?

 

It will slide right in. I got the CHRA and front cover.
As for the Semi PP and converting to all meth, maybe next year. Not sure if Im keeping it much longer.

 

You said that you were thinking of a 20b swap. Did you have a chance to drive/ride in David Hayes's 3-rotor beast at DGRR? I drove it while in Florida just before new years, and the torque was amazing (although I was too afraid of giving it anymore than about 10% throttle).

 

David was nice enough to actually let me take it out for a spin by myself! And I would only do a 3 rotor in a street car. For racing the 2 rotor is faster and better. I was playing with the idea of getting a roller and doing a 20b in that.

 

David is a great guy. I was absolutely shocked that he allowed me behind the wheel (24 years old, had just met him that day). What'd you think of his setup?

I do remember you saying that the 2 rotor is faster and better than the 3 rotor for racing, however, why would you choose to do a 3 rotor swap on a roller and not your CYM? So you could continue to enjoy turbo rotary power while it was being completed?

Also, pic on the first page, plumbing truck behind your FD....someone make some wicked chili and plug all of the plumbing? :-D

BTW, did you drive your FD all the way to DGRR or did you trailer it?

 

If i do it, I wanna do a 20b street car/ road race car. But the CYM will go all drag at that point. Prolly full meth and the 80mm.

 

Looks gorgeous! Good luck this season!

 

i am calling the transport company right now and it will be on its way to Md in the morning!!!

 

Like I told you Paps, the only reason your car and Ernies look so good is that all the pollen just blended in. LOL! 2 great looking CYM's. Nice to meet everyone at the Gap. I'm still trying to get the pollen off my car!

 

Looks GREAT Ernie!!!

 

Looking good Ernie, me likey
