Are you kidding me!! It a Charleston meet, my car is up and running, but yet i still cant come.... Im going to Auburn friday the 31st..Sorry to say but count me out!!

P.S. Anybody interested in a 1st Gen......(Im trying to sell mine right now)

 

supercharger, though a cool idea, is a waste of time. you have much more power potential with a turbo on a rotary. do you even have a manual tranny yet? if you do a turbo or s/c you need to do a complete drivetrain swap (turbo everything) because if you dont, the increase on power will distroy the NA drivetrain.

and, i can rebuild your ****!!!!!

 

masin, u able to rebuild my engine?!??!

 

Aaron Cake is running n/a drivetrain on his BP 6-port turbo project with no problems so far http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woj7628Z0ag open diff too haha

enough with the piston jokes already haha

 

yea ill rebuild your engine. im not gonna guarentee that it will run right or run at all, but ill rebuild it for you!!!

 

yeah, i dont think we will go there...i can do it myself...

sorry for the piston jokes...gee..just trying to have a little fun! and how do u know i wasn't refering to my black car? i mean, planning for the future...in like less than 83k miles!

 

If this guy goes I might have to make the trip as well.... to give him a swift kick in the *** for selling me a popped motor that was "good but taken out to do a v8 swap".

I'd imagine chucktown being super crowded on labor day weekend..

 

Great, Unspa you done did it... now he wont show up...

 

hey man fist off i will say sorry i didnt know if it was blown or not. i told you i boght it for the intention of taking it apart so i could see how to do it but i had to sell it because it was at my friends house and they had to move. and it really was taken out to do a v8 swap he said it was good and if you would like his name you can give him a pm. he decided he wanted to do a ls1 swap in his he also lives in sc im gonna try and find the post.

thats the guy that i bought it from you can take it up with him man like i said im sorry but i got the wrong info as well then

 

scine im up at 187000 miles on my orrtiginasl motor i think plans for a S/C are gone
i found a 13B-RE twin turbo from a cosmo for $1300 with 48000 miles on it what would it take to put that in there?

 

forgot to add the j/k part.

I pretty much expected it to be blown when you were letting it go for that price. I ended up giving it away a few months ago. The car i got from you sure is ugly, but no smoke at all, from startup to redline, so that's always good.

 

wes..u got the primer push start car?!?!? the one marshall had at the charlotte meet where i met him?!?!?

 

nah, this car starts right up with a key. I wish it was primered, i'm not gonna bother with paint on this bad boy, it's got a couple of buckets on it as is.. how'd ya get this paint on marshall?

 

not difficult to put in, but really difficult to get running. ie, you must run a standalone. have to make a custom downpipe or go single (but still need the downpipe) then you also need the drivetrain swap.(i guess you could still use the na drivetrain, but all i can say when it breaks is, i told you so.) dont forget aftermarket flywheel since they are all auto's. and motor mount relocation brackets ($200) then there is always a bunch of odds and ends that you forget about until you run into them.

if you buy an RE motor i would suggest rebuilding it, because most imported rotary engines are blown or have been severely abbused. i know they say they guarentee startup, but thats a bunch of bs. then there are those select few that get lucky and get a perfect engine.

id say just sell your car and buy a Tii. that is the cheapest and easiest way by far. ask me how i know.

 

haha the paint humm well probly the worse idea ever and yes it was the primer push start the starter was mest up when i bought it so for a short time i was push starting it. and you really dont even wanna here the paint story. but that car was a really good car to me like you said no smoke and no hot start either. it was verry dependable and the window swiches actually worked well they didnt but i cleened them up and then they worked i wish i had some dialetric grease at the time i would have put some of that in there so that wouldnt happen again. im happy to hear that my old car is doing good and if you want man ill come down some weekend and sand it all down with you and primer it.

 

bah you say that like 187,000 miles is a lot!

 

Yeah don't forget that this weekend is also when college football starts, so I say we go for a drive, maybe to the beach, and then party @ Chips with brews, food, and football!

 

Agreed

 

Dregg, you're partially right. It's fairly easy to get up and running. If you have a turbo ECU and harness, you can make the car drive around just fine but you won't have sequential twins. They'll have to be set up to run non-sequentially. The better way would be a standalone unit as you mentioned. If he goes that route, I'm still able to get Haltech's and will also do installations. I'm just finishing up on an E8 in a local 10th AE.

As for the downpipe, you're right. It'll have to be custom, but that isn't that big of a deal.

Motor mounts: I happen to know where he can get a set right now for about $175. I still have the ones from my old setup.

Transmission: With a turbo motor that you're planning to make any real power, you will be better off going with a turbo drivetrain. I happen to have that (including an ACT clutch) sitting around here as well. LOL. I would suggest an upgraded radiator if you don't already have one, and you will NEED a front mount IC as there is no really good way to go top mount on the RE.

Good point, but it's not always easy to find a good TII to work with.

If I can be of any help, please let me know. I'm still located in Irmo

Reese

 

WOW! Reese shows up again

Good to see you, how's the car doing?

 

Oh YEAh SOUNds GUD to me... Well as long as the games are on regular TV and I should get them in HD maybe. I will be at the beach tho if there are waves since my wifey will be gone with the kid!!

 

i tried to get you to come up here when i was putting in my haltech, but that never happend. lol. no hard feelings...

 

happend? LOL

 

I hear that man!
So what's the plan boys its a week away?
