Ok, after a few weeks of requests for the pics, I will list some below the description of the car.
I bought this car, and its brother for $500 for the pair. Neither car had ran on its own power for over 7 years. The brother had his sunroof out for the majority of the time which created a good rust bucket with some usuable parts for a parts car. My car now has pretty much everything new with exception to some body work and paint. Enough of the history lesson, on with the decription.
No clowning on the pics because the car is very dirty and it was overcast when I took the photos a little while ago.
Engine/cooling/tranny/differential:
13B 4-port, very large street ported primaries and bridge ported secondaries. GSL-SE housings, 86 rotors and e-shaft, 2mm Atkins apex seals, '93 corner seals, Racing Beat 130 psi oil pressure regulator, and all other new internals. 7" Camden supercharger with a Holley 770cfm double pumper Street Avenger running 74 primary jets and 80 secondary jets. Racing Beat full dual presilencer exhaust system. New '81-83 3 row radiator and undermounted oil cooler, and dual Hayden 10" electric fans that flow about 2100 cfm through the radiator fins. Stock '84 tranny with synthetic fluid, Mazda Racing short throw shifter and MR red **** (thanks Jeff), Racing Beat Street/Strip 225mm clutch assembly, braided steel clutch hydraulic hose, and stock '84 GSL LSD rear differential with disc brakes (also synthetic fluid and LSD additive). Nitrous Express Hitman 150 shot not installed yet, just sitting in the garage.
Fuel system:
RCI 16 gallon drag race fuel cell (Mazda tank and fuel system removed completely), Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump, System1 8"-100 micron billet filter, -10 feed line, -8 return line into a Mallory race pressure regulator (part # 4309) with vacuum actuator for more fuel under boost.
Suspension/brakes:
Suspension Techniques Springs with Tokico HP Series struts/shocks, new calipers all the way around with new pads, and braided steel lines.
Wheels/tires:
15x7 AT Italia 5 Razze wheels. Front tires: 195/50-15 Yokohama AVS ES100. Rear tires: 205/50-15 BFG G-Force Drag Radials.
Interior:
Custom center gauge panel (unfinished) that houses the switches for the fans, nitrous activation, and purge, and it houses gauges for boost/vacuum, oil pressure (up to 200 psi), and water temp. Sunpro 10,000 RPM tach. White overlays for factory gauges from Jose at http://www.rotaryrx7.com/ (thanks Jose). CP Racing 4-point roll cage (thanks Chris). Ractive red racing seats (harnesses not installed yet).
I am sure I have missed some things but that will give you an idea of the car. I am in no hurry to paint the car because these clowns around here with their Corvettes, Mustangs, and Camaros look at the car like it is a junker with a set of wheels. Then I leave them wondering WTF????? when they get spanked.
Enough babbling, I just wanted to see what you all thought of the car. I hope you like it.
