well I go out with all my friends with my Rx. as always and go racing in a spot we found. This brand new 2002 Celica gts wants some of the Rx. So I say fine by me. We line up and I lock my rear end up.... We take off I had him a car length off the line.... I slam second and jump another car by the end of the race i had at least 4 cars. All the guys that laughed when i told them that I had a 1.1 liter found a new respect for an Rx7. I love my first gen.

Nice kill I have actually had a very similar kill in my 84, dude was pissed he had just gotten it because he still had temp plates.

wait, lock the REAR end up, 1.1 liter? what kind of rx do you have?

Burnem 07-17-2002 09:30 PM

I have an 83 Rx7... GSl. It has the limited slip in it so if you drop the clutch one good time it locks it up. Makes a big difference when running.

You should have said 1.2L...thats closer...I know its like 1.89 or something, but just call it a 1.2L, it'll solve later confusion, lol. Nice kill though...

Um. Not to be picky, but I think its 1147 cc's, which is closer to 1.1 litres than 1.2. I know Mazda calls it the 12A, but they exaggerated a bit.... B)

what have u done to ur car? nice kill

SoniX 07-18-2002 02:48 PM

ahhh, it is all clear to me now, I was thinking lock the rear as in line lock, on a fwd car, but now it makes sense, you know, the more I look at the 1st gens, the more I want one, just to play with (can you say, rallycross?) and to have somethign to beat the hell out of without worrying about

ahh that is exactly what mine is for. a car to run the guts out of. Nice kill

Burnem 07-18-2002 05:32 PM

it is acually a 1.1 L. but on the the mods.... I have a racing beat header performance exhaust, Weber intake system with the weber side draft carb. and plugs and wires... and a short throw shifter. other than that... nothing. I am about to order my turbo set up for it and the introcooler and everything and NOS. so along and along it will run.
