ITS ALIVE!!!! After 6 months of cussing, moaning and blood...lots of blood(damn tight ass bolts)...my GTX ran today! I had to pull it behind another car but it started!!!! I ran out of time before I had to come home to get ready for work, but it seemed ok for the time being. It sounds like the rear rotor may be running lower compression...but I think its because its been sitting for sooo long. It also had a water leak around the thermo, but I've already got a new one for it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

I've got everything else in, except for the catback(or should I say Presilencerback) part of the exhaust(I'm gonna get it welded up next week prolly)...I should be driving her home soon!!!!

I'll get pics up soon too!

Yea, I wish I was out drivin! I've gotta get those mufflers on...we all know how "quiet" rotaries are w/open exhaust https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



I'm gonna go make a video of it soon and maybe a sound clip for those of you interested in hearing the car straight out of the PS.

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png Awesome!!! You don't know how happy and relieved to hear that you got your motor going. Maybe just maybe, mine'll work too. YOU got me all giddy!!!

Rotaryman88 04-14-2002 12:39 PM

You didn't get yours started yet...I thought you were already pimpin it out, lol. What vendor did you use to get your motor? They put this sticky black hardner in the motor to seal it off from the salt water from corroding the motors internals...so they are a bitch sometimes to start. Maybe you'll be lucky, and yours will fire right up. I did the ATF trick to my motor like 5 times...and on the 5th time, I left the ATF in there for about 3 weeks and then pulled the car behind another car and bump started it. I should be going to take a video and maybe some sound clips of it tomorrow... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
