I'm just curious who in here actually does drag race their RX7? What was your best time, and what mods did you use to get there. After my GTX is in, I'm hoping to get into the low 13s....

15.987@86 with my gtu with headers, hiflow cat, and intake.

i know you want to know about T2's. my friend carlos ran 13.7@99.99 with haltech, stock turbo, bigger injectors, full exhaust, sort of upgraded turbo, i think that's about it.

What year was his T2?

vosko 11-23-2001 09:49 AM

Close vosko,

87 N/A sports I converted.



I got screwed on the turbo, i have a gn-t3 upgraded compressor.



I have a bad traction problem off the line, a lot of wheel hop. Must be the worned out lsd and the hard tires I have. I've been thinking that my springs have something to do with the wheel hop.



Next upgrade will be the lsd and a front mount. Intake temps are almost at 200F with the stock IC.

my best was 17.2. :newlaugh: But my 7 didn't have anything done to it yet. Now I think that I would run mid - low 16's. God damn it, why did Mazda have to make the vert so damn heavy? A bum tranny has kept me from drag racing, and seeing what ET's I could do. In Jan. or Feb I'm going to swap in a TII tranny (It has shorter gears) and 9.5# flywheel, and Go all TII from the tranny back, and put in 4.30 final drive. That should bring me ET way down, I hope.

Yea, I'm thinking about going all out w/ T2 stuff..I already have the tranny and driveshaft flange....if I can get the T2 LSD w/ the 4.3 in it...thats an extra second off the 1/4 mile time for sure! BTW...I ran a 17.3 completely stock last year. That was with a .65 RT I think...I had clogged exhaust, and a slipping clutch...before my motor blew, I had a few more mods, but I didn't have time to run :( If I get the LSD put in w/ the other stuff thats going on my car, I'm hoping for a really low, and consistent, 13. Maybe even a high 12 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR
