I'd be up to going, but my car isn't as pretty as yours, or anyone elses for that matter...

I am in need of a windshield, and some other misc parts, but everything is being put off for the 7 because of the 240z in the back we've been redoing. Donor car for the Z should be here tomorrow. Now I need a 7 donor car, anyone willing to donate? hehe

Does anyone have any water seals that they could give me for an S5 non-turbo. My car won't start and after checking for any hose leaks, changing the spark plugs, checking the battery, and trying to deflood the engine; I've discovered water coming from the front of my engine (I think from the water pump).

So does anyone have any time (preferably today and/or tomorrow) to help me take my engine apart? Even if you don't have any seals, just breaking it open to see what I need to order will help a lot. Also, if anyone has been able to get hold of Russ please PM me or call. Thanks guys and gals.

doesn't matter about the looks, just as long as it can run. it would be cool to represent the running 7s in jax or in florida for that matter.

Sorry to jump in the conversation, but would you possibly happen to be able to tune a bridgeport with upgraded injecors? Or just turbos.

What engine management are you using? I do have a bridge port map, is kinda rough but it wouldnt take long to smooth it out, it all depends on the quality of the port work and if they are equaliy matched between the front and rear rotor.

Well, to be completely up front, when the car was bridgeported by the previous owner they swapped it to a carb. So now I'm in the process of getting the stock fuel inj. system back from the guy and upgrade what I need in order to achieve the best results. I have a thread about trying to find out exactly what size injectors would be suitable b/c I've gotten so many different answers. If you have any ideas, please let me know. As for the port work, you'd have to see it yourself, but I think it was done a perfectly as possible. It sounds great. Way too loud tho. Ha

Injectors are chosen by knowing how much power you make max.

If you are talking about a full bridge 13b which makes around 250 WHP.

YOu would probably go with 550cc x4. OR with a mismatch combo like 460cc x2 and
720cc x2

I Really doubt you would need more injector than that.

If his engines are so freaking good why havent i seen one single fast 7 in town. I mean you would think there would be all kinds of 7's running around super realiably.

LIke I said before the best builder in town are Alex n YoSolo. Alex built a white 88 TII That ran 6.80 in the 1/8. Engine was a small/medium street port, stock top mount,2x720cc, FPR only(no EMS), MSD, aT 15 PSI.n M/T's SOme of you might remember the white fc from jax raceways about 5 years ago.

Hey guys I have a white fc tll no one has seen it yet i been working on it for a few yrs mainly money is the issue but hopefully i'll be done soon so i'll let yea know when i'm done and i would love to go for a ride and to reply to this quote i would have to say that I have seen Norm's engine and i can tell you the man knows what he's doing as for YoSolo he is good also if he is not disappearing every time you look for him he is gone especially when he has your car (did not happen to me but i have seen it done to other) oh and to say something more about Norm he was the first to rebuild a rx8 motor for mazda in the US so the man has to know what he is doing but to me he is to expensive but a good mech
