DJ, I need to know what size the exhaust is on your car. I can put that on for you. I can't do it for free though. Andre, those seals are for a twin dizzy 12A. So have you decided about what route your going to go with the Vert?

well sam im thinking of a bridge for shure, im looking at a set of apex seals now and a bearing set. i talked to stu and he told me the gasket set is like 170. im also gonna get the PR 5th and 6TH port ramps. so im estimating about 700 buck to do what im going o do with it. i thought about alot of things, and I reallized that im not going to use this car as a daily driver anymore. i have the ol' s10 for my b/s tasks, so....... we will see. I honestly need to put the car in storage over the winter but im guessing my car cover will just have to do. i was planning on just taking my time nd doing everything over the winter, but im impatiant and im planning on pulling the engine out later this weekend and in the mean time start my conversion for 5spd. the only thing I dont have for it is a clutch which is no problem, and a clutch master cylinder. my parts cars had the master cylinder but no reservoir attached to it. and I think josh still has the other slave cylinder but there cheap anyways. I have the pedals, GTU tranny, GTu rear end, drive shaft and RPM gauge. im gonna do it hopefully in a couple weeks or so, no expecting it to be finnished and in teh car, but at least the engine put back together. this will be interesting.

soon as I find some time. I am consummed with this FD Electrical which just gets worse each time I troubleshoot it. Turned the key on today and something went zzrt! Now no power will transfer from the battery. Disconnect battery from the main harness and I have power directly on the batt Pos. Hook it to the main fuse block and I have NO power. Something went to ground in the harness I believe. people that hack in electrical components should be strung up by there ***** and bled thru their Urethra!!..Previous owner of the car All fuses are good...PITA!! I hate electrical

i agree dave electrical does suck, I actually hate it with a passion. what I usually do when a customer car comes in like that i make them buy a new harness. i have a guy in arizona that you can send your entire harness and he will completly rebuild or re construct you another harness. I know it cost money, but you can chase problem after problem and never get them all while the harness is in the car. And stu you should come around this weekend when I pull the trucks tranny and the the rx7's engine tranny. Joshy wanna com out and play? lol any help I can get in the transformation process will be a great help.

I am looking into a painless harness set-up. Only problem is that there was sooo much bullshit wired in, Alarm, fan switches, lights, etc.. that I don't know "which" harness is really the "bad" one.. There are about 4-5 main harness sections on the front of the FD. A few Thousand dollars worth... For real At my wholesale cost So? Maybe I will crack on it again tonight for a bit more but I am close to bald at this point

Anybody wanna go to road Atlanta next weekend? I am heading down on Sat with Elizabeth after work, staying at a hotel, and PDX event on Sunday
Also, does anyone know if I wrap some bare wire around my CAS wires, Will that effectivly be a "shielded" wire? I am picking up trigger interference thru my Gopro track cam when it records.
Oh Yes, Happy pumpkins!

Andre if you need the parts blasted let me know, we got a bunch of new media blast in

Andre, you get the block to the house, and let the porting begin! DJ, when you get the muffler, just get with me and I will work you in. I don't charge much. I even take trades for work sometimes Just make sure what size your exhaust pipe is before you order.
