You could come and say hi!!

 

[Bubbles]

Can i come and play??

 

[MaLicE]

love em, de-spoilerd tho

de spoilered, jap 99 spec rear lights and a 99 spec front bumper, feed skirts and a re amiya rear diffuser are all on my parts list, then some tein mono flex to replace the tein lowering springs on it atm, then will get parts saved up like v mount intercooler, t04z single turbo, 1000cc injectors, down pipe, mid pipe and prob change the exhaust too.... then need a power fc and get it mapped and hello 10mpg lol

liquid yellow i will be there about 1:30 lol

and bubbles NO!

 

[msa197]

always have liked the wankle engine.

Looks cools...........

Is it loud?

 

[Bubbles]

meanie you let me drive the last one! you liked it!!!

 

[Steviant]

How much did that cost you?

 

[MaLicE]

How much did that cost you?

enough lol, fresh rebuild too

and bubbles u drove my last car put your foot down it came on boost and u screamed and drove like a granny!

msa yeh they are pretty loud... soon as its fully decatted it will be stupidly loud lol! the engine dont change pitch its a constant tone but just gets louder lol

stick some pre mix in with the fuel and it smells sexual and kicks out biiiig flames

 

[Steviant]

Have you driven one before?

 

[Weeman]

I predict a week before it explodes into little bits, jap clutter.

 

[Bubbles]

it was wet? maybe... long time ago, and id never driven anything with boost before! and you screamed more than me

 

[Turkish]

If it was me I'd already have written out a scarily big and expensive list of bits to bolt on.

 

[Weeman]

and painted that list on the side of the car?

 

[Turkish]

I don't have a Nova no.

 

[jon_r]

Clutter. German FTW.

 

[MaLicE]

If it was me I'd already have written out a scarily big and expensive list of bits to bolt on.

oh i have lol even priced up a 22b engine out a mazda cosmo lol!!

BUT there are SOOOOO many parts lol, i watched videos on how to rebuild them and change the clutch lol

so many different routes to go... first thing im gonna do is change it from a sequential turbo settup to non sequential bit more lag but more kick and more fuel saved!

they are classed as mid engine lol didnt even know that untill the other day

oh and other first job is to mod the seat runner to make the seat go back more as its a f**king squeese being over 6 foot

 

[Leeshez]

Very nice .

 

[Chili Red]

liquid yellow i will be there about 1:30 lol

That's when I finish work! Come and drive it over to show me?

 

[DazG]

Welcome to my mpg world and worse

Looks good!

 

[Jon.L]

fastest car i have ever been in. 2 1.3 engines with a turbo on each iirc.

 

[MaLicE]

fastest car i have ever been in. 2 1.3 engines with a turbo on each iirc.

kinda but not really, its a 2616cc engine with 2 turbos that run sequentially, 2 small turbo's one spins up first untill 4k rpm then the second comes on, and its not a engine like a piston engine uses a rotary wankel engine which is like a big triangle moved eggsetricly (sp) around in the engine... instead of like a piston engine where each cylinder does intake, compression, combustion and exhaust in each cylinder, the rotary engine does the same 4 things but each in their own part of the engine.

 

[Jon.L]

well i was almost there! either way fastest car ive ever been in. mymates bros was identical to urs but red. left m3s for dead! happy days. juciy as hell though and i cant understand why they put back seats in them! there like salad bowls!

 

[Englebert]

They are good cars, good value for money thought. Think i remember a Type R RX7 vs Type R NSX BMI video and they were pretty damn close, so don't ruin it!

Certainly wouldn't bother with crappy Tein.

 

[Englebert]

Just looked up on Wikipedia... is it a 'Spirit R' or a Type RS/RZ?

 

[Dave..]

I want an RX-7 one day, timeless looks imo, and theres just something really special about them

 

[Bluebeard]

Big mommas pants imo.

But as long as you like it.

 

[MaLicE]

its a type r r1 92/93 model

they came in x,r,s and rz versions, the type r had harder shocks, and a few chassis tweaks, the s and the rz were the same as the r but had leather and a sunroof... have a book fig of 4.9 0-60 and a 1/4mile of 13.5 the 1/4 mile seems slow to me lol, but supposed to be one of the best handling jap crap waggons just like the nsx and dont worry i wont mess it up, im only upgrading with good parts...

why dont u like teins? the mono flex are by far the best shocks u can get on a 200 untill u wanna spend over 2k? they used to be unreliable but have changed alot in the past couple of years...

want a 99 spec front bumper like this...

 

[Fred@BTM]

i thought they were twin rotor 650's = 1.3L?????????

 

[MaLicE]

i thought they were twin rotor 650's = 1.3L?????????

they are twin rotars but engine size is classed as 2616 you can get them re registered as a 1.3 but no insurance company has them listed as a 1.3 its better for tax lol but thats about it.

 

[McBunny]

only reason they class it as a 2.6 is due to the power as fred said its actually capacity is only 1.3 but you know that
