Beautiful car overall. I can't believe I have not found this tread before especially considering that I have been building my track car for the last two years.
My car is currently at the build level that S2000 don't phase me. I usually find a Lotus and compete with him all day (even though I usually get beat in the corners).
I wish there were more RX-7s out there--especially first gens.

nice Project you have..
but seen to be like we went two different diteciton(yours turbo, mine is NA)
my next possible upgrade is also OS LSD, what i have now is 4.7 final drive with miata torsen
how did OS LSD do for you ?
I am now swaping my tired old 81 tranmssion to a 99 Miata 5 speed.
and replace my 5.5 twin plate cluth and cluch... because i have some issue of my 3.9lb flywheel
you can go race car section to see what i am talking about

When upgrading my differential, I thought about the Miata/S2000 route. However, after doing some research on the prospective forums, they tend to fail at about 300rwhp. Since I was building well past that and I had already invested in Moser axles (ruled out the Ford rear end, plus I wanted tunability).
My two options were the Kazz and the OS Giken. I had ridden in Kazz equiped cars before and I did not care for the jerky way they engaged. The OS cost a pretty penny, but I have been very happy with it. The only time there is any jerkyness in on a full lock turn under power. Besides that, it engages like a stock differential.
So far, it has taken everything that I have thrown at it without any problems.
