suspension on your single turbo 7?
what suspension mods are you runing on your single turbo rx7?
is anyone using the stock suspension? if so with how much rwhp?
the reasion i ask is because right off the bat once my single goes on i wont have the money to do suspension or lsd but still need ideas so when i do get the money it can go on the car asap. also the reason i ask now is so ill have time to do some reseach. hks claims 450whp @15psi i plan on runnig any where from 15-22psi (i know thats a big jump but im not sure yet at least 15psi) and am kind of woried that this kind of power will destroy the stock suspension.

The suspension will be alright I imagine, just not optimal. The LSD might not. I would definitely hold off on launching the car hard until the LSD goes in. The suspension isn't so much off a big deal in that it won't hurt the car or keep you driving it, just won't be optimal.

as far as the lsd goes ive heard that the kazz is kind of harsh for a street drivin car, and the mazdaspeed is to soft for track use so also what kind of lsds are you guys running?

KAAZ. Its not that bad if you break it in correctly. The car will never be as smooth as a Lexus which is what some people expect.
The stocker is actually better for a roadcourse but a little wheelhop can kill it and with a singled car its quite common.

i have tein flex coilovers, k2rd trailing arms, pettit toe links, new oem pillowball bushings, and a kaaz diff. it works very well together. i pulled a 1.66 60ft at the track on drag radials and i think there's more left in it. on the street or any backroad, it's more than enough. the kaaz is a little rough, but you get used to it after a while. i haven't gotten a chance to auto-x with the new suspension, but i really love it
