Racer? 10.2 in the 1/4 mile. Lightweight Racing tires



No engine shots, but I'm sure it's just a stock 146HP 6 port under the hood.



It appears to be a totally stock body RX7. Even if it's as light as 2800 (with the driver), it would require over 500 HP to run a 10.2 1/4



NO F'ing way... (and People are bidding on this!)

"Car was used as a street racer and needs an apex seal before it can be run regularly. When used as a racer, it did 10.2 in a quarter mile." So he ran a 10.2 on the street? With stock wheels and regular tires? This guy's listing it for his son. Well, his son's full of ****. Either that or just plain stupid.

probably mixed some things up and he son meant 1/8 mile.

1/8 is a little more like it. I was gonna say hell, I wonder what i'm doing wrong. I'm probably still up in the 16s https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

The car needs a bumper, fender, and apex seal (MEANING A MOTOR). Also note that the rear quarter is seriously messed up. That car wouldn't be worth $500 if it HAD a good motor. It doesn't even have a title. You ****** ebay people are damn morons. I hope you all die for being so stupid!

...with a stage two flywheel and stage two clutch.
WTF is a "stage two" clutch and flywheel?


...titanium driveshaft and titanium rotors...
Sure it does.


...15 inch lightweight tires.
Wonder if the rims are lightweight too. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif

ebay needs support for posting comments on an auction

Aside from the obvious bullshit in the ad, I don't understand why they would advertise it as a former race car. They would probably get more interest in describing it as mostly stock, 72K original miles, needs work, etc. I don't see why someone would buy a car needing all sorts of work and to add to the headache, it was previously raced by "the racer". https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/blackeye.gif

Isn't that the truth. The car appears totally stock, but it was a racecar. Maybe in Tailand..

actually, never mind, it was a automatic SE model, it was also NOS ready, but it was a 9 second car, not to be confused with this car that runs 10's.



9 sec SE

clutchmasters makes products only named by stages, "stage two" clutch is made for a car with about 90% more horsepower then stock or something, my friend has a stage three on a 2001 tiburon which is said to handle 110% over stock, and has kevlar in it and all that crazy shite. Those clutches are sick sunuvabitches.
