Hey Ernie, I though for sure you would upgrade to a 3 rotor once you popped that motor.. Maybe a rebuild is faster in regards to getting the car on the road again???

My new engine is already done. Im just waiting on the turbo. Im looking at a 3rotor on X-treme Rotary's website in Australia. They are selling a block that has new irons, housings and has already been studded. The 2 piece shaft is really pricy now though. I was going to wait till the US $ gained more value.

Why don't you just buy a D-Code off Japan2LA and have it built while you're using the new 2 rotor? Money is an issue I take it...?

a 3 rotor takes twice the money and twice the effort
not worth it..13B can make plenty of power and is easier to work on in the long run
granted I do love the way they sound. One of our local group members owns a CYM 3 rota
and is totaly sick sounding (big street port and a 80mm turbo)

**IRS Rx7 record is coming to a new home. **

Boy this ought to be good!!!! Both CYM and both east coast cars , I'll put money on it but ofcourse I have to be patriotic with my bets

Ps.Question for the For the guys that mentioned 20b's..
If you had a FD being limited to IRS and mazda tranny because of class rules and was being sponsered with a choice between FREE a 800hp 20b and a FREE 800hp 12a, which one would you choose and why? This is a very real question and NO PROs!!!

Ok Either I need to work on getting my plumbers license and come work for you or, I need to ask you where you got the printing press that your making all that money on. Damn how are the rest of our budget racers suppose to keep up with you Big Perm?

LOL

Here's a hint to the question above

LOL........was wondering how long it would take you to notice that Cris.
Ari and Ray helped convince me that the stock tranny just isn't going to be fun swapping out every race so in the long run the G-Force will be cheaper and more fun. Plus beating a Supra will be a lot more fun that beating a Honda.

Not sure, but it is the same one Ari used. G101 H pattern 4spd dog box. It will bump me up to the unlimited class in Nopi but it will be more fun in the long run.

Not sure what you looked at, but list is only $4k. With all the bells and whistles it comes under $5k, and thats list price. Im getting it cheaper than that.
