o yea and my car will not get past 75 at all. and when i idle there some vibration feels like the trans area and one more is the yoke of the drive shaft suppose to be all the way in the tranny. its a manual if u needed to know

I think the trans yoke is supposed to look like it's all the way in.

Not past 75?

Sounds like you may need a new clutch...?

Does it slip like a mofo?

I remember on my other car (read: non rx7) when my clutch went and I couldn't get higher than 75 km/h. Everyone driving behind me was getting sooo pissed off like I was doing it on purpose or something. Got that fixed quick I can tell ya. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

i agree about that, it sounds like a slipping clutch perhaps. and about it running too rich, i wouldnt worry about the smell or the burning eyes, thats what makes a rotary in my opinion, but if its effecting the performance, try adjusting your idle mixture. its the screw located below the fuel inlet and returm lines.

Yo smog fighter.Is that a FB tranny next to a T2 tranny?

Hereonout 03-19-2003 04:53 AM

id bet it is....and about the burning sensation, i cant get enough of it. it kills, and i LOVE it.

Racer X 03-19-2003 05:15 AM

It looks like a S4 T2 tranny(like the one on my garage floor)Seeing as it has a NSS on it with the harness dangling there.I still need to get another FB shifter and housing for my swap. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif
