1st gen rocks..... :bigok:

RX7 in DAGO 06-18-2002 03:20 PM

FD's and FC's owe there life to the 1st gen.. i know its old, but its an rx7.

i call the people who don't include 1 st gens, with the other gens SNOBS..

i like how well balanced the 1st gens are..

bigtime 06-18-2002 03:25 PM

1st gens are worth owning if u put a turbo 13b in them :P

You can always supercharge a 12A and Turbo them..



But I do like 13Bs....



I drove a second gen 13B Vert..For like a weekend...that thing ran like a ****** dog....the pick up was so god dam slow..



My 1st Gen pick up is 100 times better..





<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> ><



Heres a story I didnt tell you all ...I felt like I was in the twilightzone.

I went to the illegal street races Saturday..There was no Mazdas on the side I was parked...Then I saw them come...



Second gen Turbo II I think 10AE with white Turbo II painted rims...

A second gen who had an exhast leak ..and he thought it sounded mean...and a third gen red...look and sounded bone stock..



Then a vert with rims pulled in ..musta been like 3 more came and parked..

Every one thought it was a RX7 club..I said nahh ..im not with them..



Anyways **** got boring..and I left about 2am..



NOW heres the ****** wiered part...I pulled up to this light..and NO **** there was at lease 10 last gen 300zs...no bullshit I felt like I was in a diff world..and knew I was gonan get tried...



Now help me explain this...I know you may not belive..but when the light changed,,they all took off...



The one next to me was revvin his ****...we took off...

I DUNNO hOw but I accelerated alot better than him..

As I was pulling off...I heard his blow off valve.whistle ...then we came up to another light..when all these Zs took o0ff it was like they was calling me ..

pssst psstt psst psst is all I heard..I was like wtf?Then I turned off to go to a diff road ..and one guy was waving at me to comon...like to follow them so they can eat me alive...



This is very wiered..like a dream,or nightmare if I would of went with them..lol..can anyone explain how I accelrtared better than him..and he had Turbo?

phinsup 06-18-2002 05:15 PM

I just bought the GSL-SE and saved the time! How much is that going to cost?

SoRRoW 06-18-2002 05:35 PM

The ft supsension, brake,cross member,struts,hubs..springs.etc..cost me $150.



The whole rear end set up will cost $200. I need that 4.10 gears posi rear end..



I will drop it in myself..But it will cost me more money..cause I will buy new bushings and springs struts/shocks etc..



I didnt want to spend alot of money on a car to strip It down and redo..

I payed $175 for my car...it took me $125. to get it running..and I got it high speed buffed and detailed from some friends at a dealer ship I was workin at ..at the time...then a sales man wanted to buy it for $2k cash..I would of made a ****** profit..but I turned him down..then that weekend..I got hit at the illegal street races and My car is still not done..I added the body parts...but now waiting for this kit deal to go through and then my friend is gonan paint it ..I willjust have to buy the paint...



go here..look for the ultima kit...this is what I will be getting

I love all gens of the Rx-7, I mean really, they are beautiful looking cars. I remember when my brother bought his 86 GXL (later became mine) in 1993. I knew nothing of RX-7's and thought it was just ******* cool looking. It felt like sitting in a cockpit, all the buttons and **** were accessable without even removing your hands from the steering wheel. It was light years ahead of my 84 mustang, but only two years older. I actually think the 3rd gen and 1st gen look more alike than the 2nd gen. I loving driving my 82, it has a very sports car feel to it. I wish it had about 200 more horsepower. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

I have had 1st gens for quite a few years now and I wouldn't trade them. It really doesn't take alot to get some more "umph" out of them and they are so simple, not full of all these bullshit sensors. Then you mess around and do the Turbo conversion or supercharge one, then it gets real fun. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif I will be so glad when I get my conversion done. I've haven't cooked any "rice" in awhile. B)
