Hey guys Im looking for some cheap and quick power mods for my rx7. its a 83 1.1 lol duh with the 5 speed. Im already looking into a exhaust for it. Looking at a header and flow through exhaust. if there is anything i can do to ignition or to the carb or exoust options to consider that would be awsome. thanks in advance

Here some pics of my car. Its in a little bad shape but it still runs and drives great. Just looking for some power mods for now before working on the interior and exterior.

I've got a Holley carb on a Racing Beat manifold and a Racing Beat header with a full custom exhaust and I love it. It's loud, but it runs well, and gets up and moves when I tell it to.



Search for some used stuff. I got my header for $190 shipped, my manifold for $150 shipped, and my carb for $120 shipped. Pieced the exhaust together from some pre-mandrel-bent pipe from eBay. I've got maybe $600 in mods.

exhaust first, header plus 2.5" back, with no other mods besides tuning will get you in the 115-120rwhp area.



intake+carb work too, there were tons of different systems made for the 12a, so theres a lot of used stuff out there.



stock ignition is good, an msd box is better

would i need to but two msd boxs. Im looking into exhoust right now looking at a decent priced header then custom exoust from header back.

Is there anyway to tune the carb for more power??

there is a bunch of ways to do the msd, most of them only put 1 msd on the leading

i see would it be any use fule to have one on the trailing or just a wast for street applications??

Im also looking into a possible turbo but it might be a little out of my leaque at the moment. but is a possibility. For extertior mods im looking into the Mariah Motorsports body kits which are sweet.

If you're doing direct fire you only need leading. The leading fires twice and does the job of the trailing.

the trailing ignition only provides about 5% of the power, so upgrading it really doesnt do much.

sweet ill pick up a msd when im able to afford it then. Thanks

Got a question. My car backfires most of the time when coming off high revs and also at low revs. Could this mean carb rebuild or is it becouse its missing the smog pump???

Sounds like you're running rich. Does it ever backfire after you turn it off?

there are some antibackfire vavles on the intake and they use some airpump air.



either way its pretty normal, when its doing it at high rpm, it might be shooting little baby flames out the tailpipe

sweet flaming tailpipe lol. So theres no way to stop it then. i thought maybe it was the carb or that it just needs new cap rotor plugs and wires.

well just put a msd 6al in and new ngk plugs it runs so much smoother. dosnt backfire as much and also dostn sputter anymore

Yeah I need to do that this winter. I can't get mine to idle below 1200. I think it's because it loads up with fuel.

mine wont idle below 2000 lol

I was wonder if anyones got any perforance parts for this year and if there willing to sell. Id like to get some parts but dont have all that much money. Im in Petaluma California if anyone close and has some parts. If you got body and interior parts thatll be awsome too.

lol, you're actually not too far away, i'm in sunnyvale.

no ur not. Im at the coast guard traning center west of petaluma. U got anything for sale???

ur about a hour and half.

sure, ive got tons of stuff

sweet if you want to email me with a list and pics if u want my email is chrisverneuil19@yahoo.com and if u can give me a price u would like thattl be sweet also

lol, ive got like the whole 84-85 gsl-se stashed away

sweet how much for some parts??? Im lookin at new front bumer maybe right front fender and some other random parts and what not. Maybe even some intereir parts.

I just picked up an 83 FB for my girl. Her first car was an 84. Do yo ustill have the "SE", I'm looking for a good rear end and frtont hubs, along with a "few" other things. She wants me to make it faster and have beter rims and tires.



THANKS

get a msd lol i noticed a bit of difference with it. It can go faster then the max i can go lol ive only been able to do 120 with mine so far. hope to get it faster then that lol

i dont have the brake rotors, but ive got everything else

sweet when im able to head down there ill hit up for some parts. Like i said before just lookin mainly for front bumper and some interior items.

So got a update I just had a new exousr put on it's a cat back with a new cat 2 1/4 tubing into a magma flow muffler with 3 inch stainless tip. I'll get some pics up as soon as can
