I am in Halls of Knoxville tennessee. I just fut $1500 down on a RX7, and will have it by the 10th of september. I am buying a 1988 Mazda RX7 convertable, with the 4-wheel disc, BBS wheels, wtc, etc. It has 98k miles, guy is selling it to make room in garage for the mercedes his wife bought him for his 75th b-day. This RX7 is a one owner, he got it on his 60b-day as a present from his wife. We need to organize a meet and take some pics and have a cook out. Is everybody down with that?

Sounds good. Welcome to the family. My **** is running for once (Hoo-RAH!) even if I can't afford to put gas in it. So let's do it!

The RexEight guys are having their "little" shin-dig on the Dragon (Deals Gap) that weekend (Sept 7-11) and a lot of Seven owners are going, too. If you can get your car in time, you might wanna check it out. Here's a thread:

Thanks for the invite bro, I would kinda like to get a feel for the car before I go to the dragons tail, but I may meet you guys uo there. It would be lots of fun! Well, hope to see you guys soon! If this fails, we need to meet up and do a have a cookout!!

KnoxSe7eN

Welcome and sure I am up for another 7 get together. I put the last one on at Hooters. My car will be running again within a few weeks. Hope you enjoy your vert.

Party_kid2

Didn't really want a vert, but beggers can be choosers, especially since my parents are GIVING me $1000 I lack to get it. (They knew how long/hard I had been looking for an RX7). On top of that I stiil need to come up with $200 for all the things I do to a cars when I get them. (oil, tranny fluid, diff fluid, plugs, wires, cap and rotor, alignment, brakefluid, adjustments, etc, etc) I would be able to let you guys know in like a week in advance due to work (server at shoneys ) But I make uber amounts of money for 16 taking into account the hours I put in. I was originally looking for the Mazda RX7 GTU coupe 5spd. But this guy being 70 some odd years old, it being a 1 owner with 97,928 miles (after test drive) I can't pass it up. All records since 6,000 miles, and all work done at mazda (even oil changes) . Like I mentoned, we need to have a meet, maybe a cookout at a lake or something where everybody brings something, and we all gain 20lbs (I'll bring the Tums, lol). But whereever is uberly cool, it's better than nothing. Sorry for rambling.

KnoxSe7eN

I should have my car up and running soon. All I need to order now is side seals. The new port should and better be fun. And Lizard what did I let you use that you were going to return to me I forgot lol. Truely no hurry that engine will not be going in anything for some time. To the new guy if you ever want to have a mini meet once I get my car running pretty much all us FC3S guys around here are friends and at least one FD guy that used to be an FC guy. Bunch a great guys that you should get to know(not me I am a know it all ).

I'm all for a semi-local East TN meet. I've met bunches of fellow rotorists, but very few actually from here. I'm the white bridgeported Sport that looks all stock except for S5 tails if anyone has seen me around.

KnoxSe7eN

Well darn I was wanting to be one of the only bridge port people around here . Is yours full bridge or half? Well I guess I will have the only Turbo 2 bridge port around here lol

RotaryResurrection

iTrader: (8)

It's likely a halfbridge on the auxiliaries, but we'll wait for the owner to chime in

KnoxSe7eN

Thats what I was thinking not to many want the full bridge. Kevin hows your car running? The wheels on the Denali look good.

My car runs pretty sweet, but is still somewhat out of tune. I have severe boost creep and a leaky BOV that must both be replaced but can still be run as-is for now. I am about to install water injection. I have plans for the 3 bar map and a datalogger to play with the tune a bit and I should pretty much have it done. I do want to do suspension at some point, too.

KnoxSe7eN

I am also dealing with bad boost creep(stupid small S4 wastgegate) I dont know if they make the HKS Hyper D coilovers for the FD but its way to stiff a setup for the street on my FC.

RotaryResurrection

iTrader: (8)

Yeah, well, you have a stock turbo, which explains a lot. I have an hks 40mm wg which is almost 3 times the size of your stocker. It has an 8psi spring and creeps to as much as 18psi when I am not paying attention.

Suspension is the last area I will cover with this car, I want to get the tune/boost perfect first.

KnoxSe7eN

Thats understandable, I am porting my wastegate abit so I hope that will help some.

Full Bridge... heh

KnoxSe7eN

Full bridge thats cool. Have you had a chance to dyno it? What size injectors are you using? You dont see to many bridge ported 6 port engines. If you dont mind when does it start to make power rpm wise.

Party_kid2

Sorry, newb here, whats a bridge, lol. No really! lol. Drove the car again yesterday, I can't wait. I just have to make about another $500 (should have this by this time next week) in tips and I'll be cruising.
