^^ awesome. the rx7's have always had good sound systems or were well set up for them :)

Ok but all you get is a real crappy cell pic.

God I cant wait to get coilovers and drop her, she will look so much better... Stupid being broke.

Either way, it will look much better dropped a lot

Am sorry to hurt your butt but you do get my vented headlight scoop if that makes your pain a little bit better haha

lol those are my fenders! or were anyway hahaha

^^ that they are haha I just never got a round to fixing them on, so I just traded for straight stock one. Stock lines looks much better anyway.

mmmmm zane those gtrs look better on your car than mine.

Ya Dtale you bastard, I was trying to get those the day you sold them :(

Stock fenders suck a D for wanting wide tires

installed my japanese corner markers and s4 tails.

p.s.
i am a picture whore

Got my head unit and control unit finished in. Installed a brand new starter, ran new high strand copper wires for my battery pos. and negative to alt bolt. Also added a ground leg from other alt bolt to chassis and from chassis to housing. No more starter problems and everything seems either brighter or faster. Next is the 2nd gen fuseblock and the 91 alt when it comes in. Also fabricated some spacers to use to mount my components in the stock location kick panel.

going to the body shop next week for a new front bumper, new flash to pass lenses, and paint work on the bumper, fenders and hood.

sorry jordan :(

Finally got the 5 lug swap and new coilover conversion suspension done last week (Thanks Mark!)

I just moved back to the coast a few days ago and I noticed my temps were getting high, so I took it in to my old work to have them see if the water pump was leaking, sure enough it was leaking at the weep hole, I also found out that I'm leaking oil from the pedestal. Total price to fix: $574:tear: I would do the work myself but I don't have all the necessary tools/supplies.

Took my GSL-SE down to Eugene to check out my buddys 13B-RE and a TII.
Also finished porting some turbo exhaust ports for a 6Port I will be assembling in the next day or 2.

Got the Mickey thompson 26x8 15 drag radials mounted. Ready to do some chop chop in the name of weight transfer.

went to what is claimed to be the largest salvage yard in nc and found an s4 that i will be pullin the motor out of soon

Now that's what I'd call a fat ass!
 

Bet thats gonna look sweet. Bet she'll put some meat on the street. ;)

Washed and detailed then i installed my shineauto sideskirts and took the car out for a spin.

Pulled the sway bar off my spare SE rear end, installed new bushings and end links, goin into my beige car tomorrow. Also put fluids and plugs in the silver 7 and test cranked. No power to the fuel pump. :( Looks like electric woes are to come.

Installed the aforementioned tires. Lets just say daddy is pleased. lol.

With such a nice day I had to get out and drop the top. I just started driving around 10 or 11 and just got back a hour ago, and its needless to say a fun trip! The roads around Elbe was fun, much more fun then I remember going up there with my dad in his pos ford haha I just kept going and going. All the way around Mt. Rainier and back roads it was awesome, had so much fun. I cant wait to do a TII or RE swap and have more HP to play with :egrin:

got the alignment fairly close I'll get it dialed in the rest of the way tomorrow. changed the oil, touched it in inappropriate ways.

started tare down ,, for rebuild . still overheatin .and bubblin .

Ha! That's pretty sweet. CA18? That's not a very common swap in a FC. :icon_tup:

But you do know Pistons suck, right? :wink: Rotary Power FTW!

Nice!:icon_tup:

Started to do the bodywork on the car. Pulled the rocker panel straight and straightened out the area around the fuel door and quarter panel corner. Pulled about 5lbs. of wet decaying leaves and pine needles out of the heater blower inlet area and inside the fender rockers. Guys please if you love your car, check those areas often. Otherwise it will turn the metal to mush in short order.

Engine and transmission mocked up and moved to the rear by 2 inches. Weight transfer maximised...CHECK!

Just installed the pumpkin in the FD with Carbonetics diff and 4.77 gears.

Now to go out and re-assemble everything else...

Passed emission on the 16 years old FD. Yayyyyyy!!!

Nice one! Not always easy to do...

Ordered my Prosport gauges and Primered the front half of car! Check my Build thread

Coming right along! Keep on keepin on, she'll be done before you know it! I was going to come by over the weekend and take a peek and bring you the control arm, but "FBthatcould" came up and I helped him out on his ride and didn't have time. I'll try to get it over soon.

I installed a new pace setter header and took it for a spin with just a header, at 8:30pm

Layed sound deadening on the spare tire and hatch area. Mounted my RF mids and twin tweeters in my rear panels. Got my new alternator and new front speakers today!

i remounted my turbo timer and my water temp guage put my momo shift knob on and i told her i love u hahaha

Installed left rear suspension, half shaft and brakes.

Now to to the right side.

Note to self: don't forget to put gear oil in diff.

Shouldnt you be working :p

This:
I was driving down a back country road doing about 35mph(the speed limit) I made a sharp left onto another road that led up a hill and heard a thud thud thud sound coming from the back of my car. I stopped the car in the middle of the hill and looked to see if one of my wheels had come loose, everything looked fine, so I drove it (slowly since it was still making the thudding sound) up to the top of the hill so I could park my car off the street. Since I couldn't see anything wrong I just called a tow truck. When I got it back to my place I drove it up the street so I could pin point where the sound was coming from, but I didn't hear anything, so I drove it about a block and made a sharp left turn and heard the thud thud thud sound. I got out of my car and my rear drivers side tire and hub was pointed left. I jacked up the car and moved the tire/hub back into alignment. Drove it slowly back to my house, took the wheel off and saw that I was missing a bolt that connected the hub to the A-arm. Turns out my DTSS bolt fell out as seen here:

Ordered the bolt and washer from Black dragon automotive, I just hope nothing got damaged back there like the DTSS bushing.

Last week it was really nice out on the coast so I went on a little drive:

https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1268182350

Installed new RF front speakers, installed new alt, and 2nd gen. fuseblock. Ran power wire for amps and dist. block.

Nice Pic! Where's that at exactly?

I about beat my head against the wall when I found out that the tranny parts I got in today are the wrong ones...oh well back to Mazda I go.

Bastendorf beach in Coos Bay, Oregon

Well let me tell you guys about my fun little adventure with my 7. I was leaving my house just got onto the freeway shifted into third and my clutch slammed to the floor and wouldn't come back up and I had no pressure. I find a place to pull over and what do you no my clutch release cylinder is completely off. On of the bolts back out and the other one sheered off. After I towed the car to my brothers we just took it apart cleaned it and put it back together and it was all good. I guess I got pretty lucky. That was what I did with my rx7 today.

Today I finished wiring up my Eclipse head unit, RF amp and 4 of my speakers, temporarilly. Needed tunes. LOL Didn't remember what stereo sounded like without subs and EQ. Gotta find time to fab enclosures and install remaining components! Also got to drive her today with the new alt for the first time. DAMN! It's nice to hear the gilmer and not the alt grinding. ;) Love that sound! Now I need to get another fuel pump. My Holley is WAY too loud, even with rubber around the pump and between the mounts. What's a nice strong, but quiet pump that won't cost my left nut?

Start looking for another header
 

I haven't had any personal experience with the "pacesetter" headers, but everything I've read about them says they are a decent temp. fix, but don't last under the rotary's constant high temp heat. Most everyone uses the RB headers for good reason. ;) Best of luck and hope I'm wrong.
