Orlando RX7 Build
#51
Its been a little while since I updated this
Not much has happened beside a lot of wiring and fitting of AC components to get it working.
New Exhaust setup came out nice though, 3 inches all the way back
A few pics attatched
Brakes finally went on the car too, new pads and rotors, nothing too fancy. Gotta start saving for a big brake kit!

Sadly no, Kilo had the motor in and out of my car in about 3 weeks time and I never got a chance to see it when it was cracked open.
Hopefully we should be all set and running with the new transmission, rear end, etc., in the car within the next 6 months.
Sometimes slowly sometimes not at all ha

your car looks great!
I have seen you have 18x9.5 et+ 22 , 275/35/18 in the back with stock rear fender( I assume they are rolled not pulled)
how many degrees of camber do you have in the rear? does it rub ? how low is your car?
Please post more pictures of your car so I could see the fitment
thank you

Thanks man!
Not sure about how many degrees of camber the car has but for suspension its just stock struts with Eibach springs on it right now. The front doesn't rub, the backs rub a **** hair but only under hard throttle. When the car gets off the lift Ill make sure to get some pictures for you boss

Figured I'd throw some more pictures I got today of the car. Slowly making progress
I love how Gato made room for airflow to the turbo by slightly offsetting the intercooler. Really good stuff. And with the V-mount, it looks very inconspicuous. Just how I like it

Will do! Going to Kilo's shop today to drop off new registration... insane how it's been sitting for so long the registration is 2 years out of date haha
But i have to pick up my rear end as well, subframe has to go elsewhere for install. Kilo is more than capable of putting it all in but a friend of a friend is giving me an extremely good deal to More pics to come later.

Again with this ****
Worlds worst forum poster checking in. About one year later from the last post... this seems to be a recurring theme.
Long story short, while the car was down for a while for financial reasons (I blew my money back packing and on school cus I'm a ****) we decided to change some stuff up...
First thing first, pulled the motor out, went with a Peripheral Port, Gato is about to readjust my Fuel rail to clear my hood (as it was hitting before) along with the Intake elbow as that was also having some clearance issues.
Second thing second, dropped my car off at Kings Performance down here in Orlando and they installed the rear end, transmission and driveshaft. Everythings working great, seems to really enjoy the high RPM shifts. Went with a different clutch (QuarterMaster custom Twin disk). Car is running great at the moment, had a tps sensor issue and Kilo cleared that right up earlier today actually.
Car goes to Dyno this Wednesday, Hopefully I'll remember to up some pictures and videos from that. Shooting for 7XX, we'll see how she does.
Here's some pics considering I haven't posted in a while. Finally got the interior cleaned up, looking for some clean rear bins to add in a custom battery box from a friend down the road from me.
Also if anyone wants, I have a stock FD rear end for sale and some Bride Gias seats! Kind of enjoying the look of the interior as it is now, its really grown on me... after 6 years...
