If I had to drive that, I'd make sure to tint the windows so nobody could see me...and by the looks of things, it'd take a lot of tint!

I would paint the windows black and stick a periscope through the roof.

Okay here is mine:



The only indication something isn't right here would be that oil cooler. Maybe mistaken for an intercooler.

Then again that funny sounding engine coming from the SuperTrapp at the rear.

I'll detail the engine area and tie up wires as soon as I have more time. It looks messy... but yes it fits without too much trouble.

When will it be running?

This Friday! I left my laptop at work this weekend. But I did want to recheck all my wires before I start it. I did crank it over a few times this weekend. So it's close.



I just need to connect my factory tach up, which I will do after I start it. Everything else, including the backup lights, speedo are all hooked up. I filled the coolant and found I had a bad cap. I've taken care of that and it looks good now.



I hope setting up the Haltech is smooth. I've got a map from RX7.com. I added a mixture trim knob and have a A/F Meter in the dash so I think I should be able to fine tune it.



This has been a 18 month project (from the time I pulled the motor out of the Doner car). But many other things have gone on in my life that have slowed the project (moving and not having a garage being one of them).

Where in Oregon do you live?

if you are gonna tune it with the wonderful help of an A/F meter, i hope you arent using the Autometer one. that one is more show than anything else. The real ones come with an O2 sensor tuned for the unit. K&N makes one that goes for round $100.00.....but its worth it to be accurate....
