FC at the track. 11.62
http://media.putfile.com/Mazda-FC3S-116-at-127mph
Still working the bugs out. First time the motor was started was five days before the run. 1.89 60ft, can't wait to hit some 1.6s at 25-27psi.

Nice, I like the way the car squatted. The lauch was ok, but I think you could shift a little quicker maybe. Good run man, you'll kick some serious *** with 1.6s and 25 psi. Was that an STI you whooped?
P.S.- Looking for 9.9 in 2007 = AMEN

Working on getting a better suspension. Took it easy on the shifting, 7000rpms. First time driving the car since I bought it a few months ago, 230$. I hate the way the OSgiken flywheel make the car feel. Already changed the clutch set up. ACT Xtreme PP, 4 puk unsprung with the stock flywheel. Sould help my 60ft times.

My engine has lasted over 2 years of constant daily driving @ 400 hp. My odometer is shorted out but I think I put about 20k hard miles on it. How long should an engine last? If 100,000 miles is an accomplishment for a stock turbo rotary, what can we expect of a built one?

F**K THE SYSTEM!!

Hey stock suspension is better in my opinion.. cause stiff will just make you spin to much.
Tranfer that weight to the back(stock soft suspension.) and it will grip more.

hehe... your cars *** squats as hard as mine does on 1.6xx launchs, not the best thing but it sure does make people excited to watch you leave the line like that
You loose so much traction when it squats that hard although, After my runs when i looked at the slicks you could see that it was only using/spinning on the inside half of the tire tread width because it is pigeon toed horribly when the *** squats that hard
One hell of a trap too, Def. good enough for 10's
Turbo II FC where can you find Drag Coils??

Outkast in response to your question about how long a built rotary can last. I emailed dan schechter about 4 months ago and his 350hp daily driven FD has over 50,000 miles on it and as he said"it shows no signs of letting go any time soon" I also know of basic modded FC's(exhaust FCD and supporting reliability mods) to last 100,000 to 120,000 so I believe you've got another 50,00 out of yours if done right.
BTW i was going to buy a FD with 120,000 started great and everything man. Good Luck hope that helps.
