Well, i went to the dyno on Friday. It went alright. First run i put down 254 RWHP. Not to bad for running stock boost. My AFR was pretty close except for around 5-6k rpm. Tried to richen it out for the next pull with my SAFC, but nothing changed. Tried 3 or 4 more times with the same results, but nothing was working. So obviously something was up with my AFC. I'm guessing it is just something with the wiring.

So next weekend is GRR? I will be out of town that weekend visting my older brother up north. Wish i had know that it was going to be that weekend. Oh well...

Lets see...
Engine was rebuilt and streetported by myself about 1400 miles ago. I used the Rotary aviation kit. Rest of mods are s5 turbo and manifold, Greddy FMIC, thunder fabrications DP, Greddy PE exhaust, 3" custom TID, 720cc secondaries, Rtec 2.7 ECU, Walbro 255, Magnicore plug wires Racing beat flywheel, ACT 6 puck. Then i have s5 tails, autometer EGT guage, water temp guage, oil pressure guage, boost guage, air fuel guage, 4 point cage, Cusco rear carbon fiber strut tower bar, tokico lowering springs and struts.

I think thats it...

Whew, being stuck in sunny Orlando for a week without your rotary is hell. The only things I've had to comfort me were days at the pool, fun nights out, and countless scantily clad beautiful women. But not an RX-7 in sight, it seems.

But seriously, it's bad when you have quite a bit of cash saved up for the vacation, and you do whatever you can to avoid spending it so you can use the money on buying stuff for the car when you get back home. For the record, I managed to spend only about $40 bucks or so, not including the $20 I won in the Florida lottery. I am a damn cheap bastard.

Maybe i should get more post credits for being the biggest stalker of this thread. I never really have much to say but always read it. I was out of town for the past week and had to catch up on like 3/4 pages.

I love my RSR race springs.

www.prostreetonline.com

^^^cheapest place I could find 'em.

rx7store.net told me they were discontinued, even though they still had 'em on the website. That's funny, why does everyone else still have 'em.

is is sticking on both sides or just one side? If both side i would say it is probably your cable. If just one side, i would lean torwards a collapsed brake line.

Mine broke again.
