thinking like that, you should have a wideband on your car, grandmas honda civic, and everything else on the road....as someone else said unless i lose all 4 injectors, or alot of fuel pressure at a high load/boost the car will do nothing more than simply die out...

i dont have a wideband because the car didnt have one to begin with, i've had it about 3 weeks. and its only been driven about 2 of those. if I could get the car tuned as it sits, i see no need to have my own personal wideband until i decide to go with a bigger turbo more fuel etc later on down the road, and do the tuning on my own.

edit: on another note...after changing my fouled out plugs, my car now decided to drip coolant all over my driveway...god i love rx7s

 

so i have seen a few 7s around town

a white vert on Blanding going to the apart. behind planet fitness in OP...needs a new top
a black vert on Hipps Rd going toward Old Middleburg Rd. Pretty nice one
a white vert on Old Middleburg with a tan top
a black maybe s5??? on Philips Hwy...sounding like it had a slight miss.

most of them were driven by men....we need more girls driving these things =)

<3 Katy

 

correction we need at least one girl to drive a 7 lol

 

^^ why just one??

i am a girl and i drive one....i mean i did and will when it runs again.
and i know elayne drives one.
personally i think that more need to drive them.

so why just one??

 

lol, after lots of texting from kt i retract my statement. we have girls that drive 7's, kt's just not one of them lol

 

^^ the more the better.
I havent driven mine in over a week and a half. Maybe i should take her(my car) for a ride...

 

i havent driven any of mine since april. im having withdrawls lol

 

well you both should be happy cause i havent driven mine since....idk when
and the rebuilt kit is on back order for my new springs
soooooooooooo it will be a little while longer.

darn it! i am bad luck or something

 

Any of you guys have an s4 radiator? I'm in jax...could use it asap...let me know

 

Hit up randall/ kaminari1, I am pretty sure he has one. Dont think he gets on here much thow. he might have his number posted a page or two back.

 

Turns out he does! Should be picking it up today, thanks for the direction there

 

I know this has nothing to do with local sightings or local help but I thought I'd post it anyways. The other day I was filling up gas and this hobbo comes up to me with this baby boy carrying a bag with a diaper and tells me his kid just wet himself. He spent his last few dollars in the store and now he doesn't have any money left to take a bus to get home (sure he doesn't ). I hate and normally don't give money to the homeless, but while I was fueling up he says,

"Hey is that a TR7?!"
I reacted, ".. Actually it's an RX-7 but hey close enough You know not too many people know what this car is... Oh what the hell I only got 3 bucks but here's a bonus I'll give you $2 just for recognizing it!"

I couldn't stop laughing about that on my way home and didn't feel bad about giving him money. Meanwhile some of my retarded brother's friends will stop by the house and make stupid comments behind my back like, "Man what kind of car is that? Back to future!" the same kind of kids who are probably driving their mommy's accord and assume all new cars are better than old cars. But hey, what would life be without random surprises and retards

 

He didnt walk behind the car and misread rx7? tr7.. hahaha.

 

I drive my 7 all the time. And I have never seen another girl driving one. Katy you need to get yours fixed! I see girls driving Rx 8's all the time, but it's just not the same.
After taking off the alternator, and the battery thinking it was one of those causing the issue, I found that the wire behind the alternator that hooks into it, not the ground but the other, wasn't plugged in all the way. UGH!!!!! Simple ******* fix, hours to diagnose and seconds to fix. I still took both of them to get tested to make sure, and they both tested fine. Hooked everything back up, and now seems like nothing is wrong with it. Well, see... now that I've said this she'll need something else. Got a quart of oil sitting in my front seat waiting to go in when I drive her later today, so she has nothing to complain about!

 

If I recall correctly, you don't have the emblems right David? Just little holes? lol

 

Agreed, and I wish my car was that simple!

Correct I have the emblem but not the pins so I'll be sticking it to the car directly one day I just haven't yet because I hate my mufflers and don't want other people to think RX-7s are simply rice cars! But since I'm selling it soon I'll be adding those emblems in the near future

 

alright guys i think i got my car worked out, atleast the overheating issue and headlight switch. turns out my fluidyne rad was rusted out realllllllllly bad and wasnt flowing for ****...put on a stock s5 rad with a taurus efan and i havent seen over 175F yet...so far so good...ill try to come out next thursday to sonic if any of you will be there

 

Whats on thursday?

 

Rebuild kit should be here Monday or Tuesday!! WOOHOO, finally! Time to start putting her back together now.

 

5lick. YOu should have a "meet" when u assemble the engine. Kinda like a class?

That way all the rotary guys around here can get a first hand look on how the rotary engine is assembled.

Some chips and drinks while we chat about spinning doritos.=D?




PS. dont forget to prime the oil pump.=D

 

How about we all sit around and watch my rebuild DVD set nd eat some popcorn, before I attempt it? (Will be my first rotary rebuild) Then you all can sit around and watch us rebuild it.

For real though, Russ will be there (hopefully) overlooking me and catching any mistakes I make and giving me some tips and tricks. Russ is a really cool guy and I'm sure he wouldn't mind people watching, and maybe learning a trick or two. Anyone who wants to come and participate is more than welcome. Maybe we can even set up a meet somewhere to do it at?

 

Sweet and congrats! I'll be there, but if it's for this week I can't because I'll be out of town visiting my gf starting Thursday!

 

How did that headlight switch work out?

I might have seen you when you were picking up the radiator from Randall. Were you the guy in the camo? If you were, I would have said whats up, but I was busy finishing up that dirty *** minivan.

 

Hey guys whats up? I snuck off the sub! No we pulled into port for a bit. I'll be home for at least this week. Any plans for friday anyone? I have to say I'm glad we pulled in cuz I was going a bit nuts. Only good part was we pulled to Port Canaveral for a few and I got drunk and went to see boobies!
(I hope I don't offend anyone with that statement its just I heart *****!)

 

Hey Kakashi whats up? Who's doin what this weekend?

(and ***** cannot offend)
