coltboostin Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 Negative. I use the front oil galley. Its where the stock oil pressure sensor goes. I have a Tee fitting out of the stock oil pressure sensor location with my turbo feed going out the top and my oil pressure sensor on the bottom of the Tee. Seems to work well. Plenty of pressure and it keeps the line away from being heat soaked. Previous owner had this routing, so when I bought the car, I picked up misc parts from him, and this was one of those parts. If that is a copper or brass T- watch for vibration related cracking. May not be an issue with a show pony that does not see much seat time But I have seen them break on more than one occasion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miller11386 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Put the bumper and hood back on the car and getting a final wax/buff on the paint. Looks 10x better than it did before. No more little dents, dings or paint chips on the front. I will get more photos soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be done just in time for the weekend! Cant wait to see how it looks all buffed up! Tons of work left to complete before IFO which is 1 month from now in Cbus!

coltboostin Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Love it. What was wrong in that corner? Car looked Mint to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller11386 Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Love it. What was wrong in that corner? Car looked Mint to me. Look closer in my dyno videos. Two owners back, the guy backed into a short pole that put a large shallow dent in the quarter. The previous owner just polished the paint and let it go. He told me no one even noticed it was damaged unless he told them, which I said "yeah right" but truthfully most people never noticed it. With fixing some of the other things, I figured it was a great time to finally make the car right. There was some very minor surface rust from when the car was flooded by the gas door as well, so I had it all repaired at the same time. Now she is 100% rust free and ready to rock!

Need to pull the trigger for the RX-7 The Rear radials? Those are M&H 315s. I like them, but my set is about 4 years old now, so not a whole lot of stick left in them. Swapping to the full drag slicks in the next week or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miller11386 Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Took the car and filled it with fuel. Unfortunately I didn't make the test date in Pittsburg due to my tow vehicle failing on me. Still trying to make it to import faceoff this weekend, but its not looking good. Time will tell.
