Bad Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 And how many of them are still running?... I just think the rotary is a weak platform. However rx7 store does do some sweet stuff. Exavier is sweet but I think he is also changing his platform. :asshole: Touche" Mine runs fine...want to chase it? Now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 or its a pinched seal which happens when the motor is built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500HP RX-7 Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 If its a pinched seal then whomever built it would cover the work and fix the problem. Pinched seal is very rare but not impossible and covered under a warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistedrx7 Posted May 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 I think a lot of rotaries are going to be running around this summer. Just you wait. i think we all have some tricks up our sleeves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelloman4571647545499 Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 Good luck with your build. I would almost give away the 1.3 in my 90 car cause that is such a pain in the ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted98gst Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 I think a lot of rotaries are going to be running around this summer. Just you wait. i think we all have some tricks up our sleeves. has any rotary from columbus ever make it under 11 seconds? im not even trying to be funny or a dick, but everytime ive seen one run at NTR or larue , it never seems to be as fast as people claim. BTW i know there are really fast rotarys around the world, seems like the aussies have it down the best, either way wish we still kept our rx3 from back in the day.

Actually it's those Freakin' Ricans. Look up GRS motorsports on 7club, they have all kinds of crazy sick ass rotary videos. Seems like they are always in Starlets or something... 1000+ whp out of a 2-rotor seems the norm down there. Aussie/Kiwis would be a close 2nd though... Oh yea, to the OP, my guess is... GAS TURBINE!

Trjackson Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 The big single car from Marion went mid 11's @ 120+ with like 450 wheel, didnt it? You are refering to Jake Keller. He is on this forum. He went 11.5 @ 124 with 440 whp. He was also running Zayviers slicks. The car ran damn good. Too bad he had to pull out of it at the 1/8th everytime due to ass end breaking loose. He really could have got a 11.1/2 out of it. Jackson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran a 11.83 @ 118 (1.77 60') pass at LaRue, on ET streets, street ported motor, ported stock twin turbos @ 15psi. Blew the diff two passes later. I was in the final stages of high-boost (18-20psi) tuning my half-bridgeport, GT35R, upgraded rear end, when it was crushed. I was pretty confident it would have been sniffing high 10's. I will never know now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
