  1. I havent looked on ohio rotaries becaus I am pretty sure everyone hates me after I told DJChaunter or whatever his name was where he could shove it when he made me start driving to his house and he didnt have the title ready to go on an FC I was supposed to buy from him. Edit: This happend last fall, before I bought Mr. 2.....maybe they have forgotten by now?
  2. *bump* May end up parting it out...but its still for sale.
  3. I left a few things out, I am going to be using a crushed DSM 1g BOV which I am getting from kep91tsi. In addition, I will be using an adjustable cam pulley to retard the cam 4 degrees, maybe a little more. And for the love of god, someone buy the MR2 in my driveway.... Scared?
  4. Ive been planning this the last 4 months.... I ditched the 20v MR2 because the MR2 isnt worth investing that into. I ditched the Redtop MR2 because it wasnt worth investing into. I ditched the 20v MR2 because it wasnt worth investing into. I ditched the Turbo Ranger because my boss told me he would fire me if I did it (he was right, it needs to stay the reliable daily it is) When it happens, I will rub your face in it for countless hours. If it doesnt, I will bow down to you and call you master. Deal?
  5. I am not using an HX35, I am using an HY35. Still kind of a big turbo, I will just have to lean into the throttle sooner. Edit: Just did a little more research between the two. Apparently, the HX flows better, but the HY spools faster. HY it is.
  6. Just say "Computer, launch Emergency Medical Hologram", he should take care of you.
  7. Spring 2008. The car is the only thing I am having trouble finding for a decent price. I know where to get everything else in town.
  8. Because I would then have a foxbody shell to get rid of. A 2.3 motor can be had from a local junkyard for only $150.
  9. I am going to find a prebuilt megasquirt. I love to solder and all, but my hands a little shaky, and there are too many connections i would probably mess up. Let me know, homeboy.
  10. A Transmission Masters on Huntley, they do a damn good job.
  11. Since we had the whole 4G63 vs Ford 2.3 thread, I should let everyone know what is going on. I am building a 2.3t FC RX-7. I dont have the FC yet, something about FC owners and not responding to PM's and E-mails, but I have a few leads. This whole project is going to be cheap. The most expensive part will be the megasquirt engine management. I am shooting for a car that will do a little bit of freeway fun with some level of autocrossability. What I have decided on: Ford 2.3 from the Xr4ti, it had slightly larger injectors (will be a nice starting point) T5 from a mustang Granny's Ford 2.3 Kit Megasquirt N Spark pushing Ford EDIS Holset HY35 Walboro 255 Havent decided on injectors yet Maybe Nick's Intercooler if I buy it, otherwise whatever I find in the junkyard Megasquirt 2 Step Program Knife Edged lower intake mani, gutted and rotated upper intake Ranger Cam, or something better if I can afford it Ported head Stock Block, Pistons, Rods, Crank Homemade Intercooler Sprayer Stuff to come later: Full Racing Beat Suspension Kit - yeah, its not the best, but its cheap I am shooting for 400-450 whp. Let the rotary fanboy flamefest begin.
  12. Yes but Simmons, a 4G for my build isnt practical at all. I dont have JP like skills. Making the 4G work in a longitudinal setup would be damn near impossible for me to pull off without some serious help I am not willing to pay for. Transverse engines are just too damn hard to convert.
  13. It changed from car to car. In the Xr4ti, I think it made 180 hp. In the Turbocoupe with the addition of the intercooler, it made 190.
  14. Hmm....I think the last 3 posts seem a bit biased...
  15. So...if one were to say...convert the car to a manual, the gears wouldn't have to be swapped, would they? And if one wanted to, they could swap the gears?
  16. What is the difference between the automatic rear end and the manual rear end?
  17. Our little argument is about the DSM 4g63 against the 2.3 Turbo.

  19. Brenda is a hell of a driver, that car is an extension of her. I forgot my helmet, and didnt realize I had until I reached the 71/70 interchange, or else I would have caught some rides. I wanted to drive so bad....
  20. I was there for about an hour around the last heat.
  21. up on craigslist now, for way more than here.
  22. Negative, young Smurf, I have a debt to pay.
