hey masin, hows the rebuild going? i hope its not raining all weekend down there like it is up here in virginia beach.

 

well we just got back from masins house and the things are not looking very bright right now we couldnt get the flywheel off. So we probably going to ernsts house tonight to see if he can get it off or maybe he has a block laying around that we could use.

 

We did go to Ernst's last nite, and he was able to get the flywheel off. So we went on and pulled the motor apart while we were there. Ernst looked at it, but couldn't see anything that was blatantly obviously wrong with it. We were expecting warped housings, but he wasn't able to tell right off. So, right now we are awaiting an update from Masin. Masin, have you got any news for us?

 

the housings are warped so i am going to use my turbo housings. the irons are good. i was just about to start assembling the motor and i am missing one freakin corner seal spring!!! anybody got one? they are FD springs.

 

another update, one of my friends down the road had one so i got and put the engine together. hopefully tomorrow i will put it back in, if there is enough day light.

thanks again adam and minda for helping me and spending a long night in the truck!!

 

Just to clarify things it was 3 rotary nuts driving to a rotary mechanic so he could make us feel stupid . And make me want to rob as bank so i could buy Ernst's car .
Well I think I might go and get that other car hopefully tomorow or atleast see if my wife gives an ok on it since she has not seen it and then it will be a motor puling party at my house only a lot faster since it is stirped down to its basics.

 

So, you are getting that 1980 today!

 

I have to **** the money out first and then get it but my wonderfull wife has OK the car so when ever my insurance money comes in I am going to get it unless I can getsome money before that.

 

i want picture and lots of them. or i could just come up there and see it.

 

Well I was going to ask you if you could drive down here once I get it and help me bring the car back to my house due to the fact that it doesnt run.

 

give me a date. how about the sunday after the meet? depends if i have work or not, but we will see.

 

something happen to your white fb or are you trying to get another horse in the stable?

 

I am just trying to get anether one just becouse, and what I really whant is Ernst's FD, but unless I cant make my trees to grow money instead of leaves.

 

UPDATE ON THE MEET.

The day we will be having the meet (October 22) there will be a beatle car show at Big Daddy's and it is free so we can look around the owner of the drive in sead that he is expecting about 50-80 cars to show up, he will have us some parking space in the back saved up we just cant park in the front thats all. So when any of you come and see a bunch of beatless dont get scared we are still there just in the back of the parking lot on the grass.

You can PM me or call (864) 909-2445 cell if you have any questions what so ever about the meet.

 

Is this just for the upstate S.C. folks or can I go? I'm in the Charleston area and relatively new to the Rx7 scene and would drive up there to meet other owners. So yeah, barring an unforseen commitment, count me in for the 22nd.

 

It is basicly tho ever whatns to make the drive jl1rx7 is coming from virginia beach. If you know anybody else that would like to come they are more than wellcome to come with you.

 

yeah yeah bring some chucktowners!!

also, is reese coming?

 

you Out to ask Reese that becouse I havent heard a word from him.

 

if i get the motor back in my fd in time, i'll head up there from chucktown.

busy going single right now....might take some time. anyone in the charleston area that wants to see someone's head explode as a reslult of making a 3rd gen single turbo is more then welcome to stop by.

almondjay, what gen rx7 do you have?

 

IT LIVES!!!!!!! we finished puting everything i today and it took about 5 minutes to get it running. BUT (there's allways a but) some dumb ***(cough my dad cough) bent one of my oil cooler lines and it was leaking like a sive everywhere. as long as i get a new one of those by next saturday i will be at the meet with my car!!

 

Nice to hear that.

 

Thats cool masin, i know how it feels to not have a rex running, plus for something like that to happen, but at least you didn't do it!

 

I have an red FD, R2. Almost stock except for reliability mods. Hows the single turbo conversion going?

 

Guys, I'm coming. I have a Haltech installation this Saturday and on Sunday I have to go get another customer's car up and running but I'm currently open for the 22nd. Gas mileage be damned! LOL.

Now I guess I actually need to clean up the car somewhat. Heh.

Reese

 

Glad to hear you are back up and running, Masin!
