F**K THE SYSTEM!!
All car stuff is on hold for bit. Other priorities at the moment.
I seen the videos of the drift event. Looks like you guys had fun and some cool cars showed up.

it is too ridiculous. And I know you will find it funny since it all took place in Florida. Awesome thread!!!I have a friend like that... he's a little loose in the head.. similar **** happened to him. He pays this guy to buy him a cosplay outfit for an anime convention. Gave him like $300 bucks.
Then the guy he gave money to states he tried to buy the costume, but it didn't ship. And said that he has to keep the money because of 'shipping fees' or some random bullshit. But my friend bought his story and didn't ask for the money back..

If it doesn't have to be a JDM, I'd contact DJSeven and FritzFlynn as they both have access to very well built motors.
Shipping from California takes away almost any cost-savings.
If you have a core to get rebuilt, there is a local JAX guy who does rotary rebuilds in his sleep. That is, he use to work at MAZDA for 6+ years doing the Factory rebuilds, before they moved it away from Jacksonville, FL. He can be found on the Jacksonville, FL, craigslist.

From what I've read, its the narrow range nature of the FC tps, its not designed to use 100% of its range. If you look at the stock values its suppose to be at 20% at rest! At full throttle it might be around 85-90% The reason I've heard this is the case is to account for wear/non-idea operating conditions. I've you've to a little leway on both ends, it can not be "100%" and still function properly.
That said, what kind of EMS uses the stock TPS anyway?

Hey guys. Wanted to let you know of an upcoming car show "Auto Starz" to be held at the Mall of the Avenues a week from Saturday. I just registered so I will have the 3 rotor there, that is if Kilo Racing gives it back to me next week! It would be great to have some other RX7s there. You need to register by the 23rd.
