im going to be putting the camden 7" on mine as well. from what ive heard is it gives you a 50% increase, but ive never driven a supercharged rotary. i like my power as soon as i put my foot to the floor, so thats why im going with it.



i got the rb exhaust on my car and im pretty happy with it so far and dont use holly, go with weber. they make the best carbs for rotaries , period.

Excellent, this is all good to know!



The 7" Camden is what I was looking at, and I'm generally more partial to Weber anyways. I've seen a lot of Zs that I really liked that had triple Webers. It's a really classy look on an L-series.



And yeah! I'm likewise fascinated by the supercharged rotary idea. To my mind, the supercharger compliments the simplicity of the rotary engine. I've worked on too many turbocharged cars to want to deal with more of the same awful complexities. Turbo cars are just plain less reliable, in my experience. Too many things can go wrong.



I have a hybrid T04B/T3 on my 280ZX Turbo, and I have to say, it made a huge difference over stock, and was a nice power mod, etc etc.









Fact is, I'm sick to death of fuel injection, and just... looking for something different and interesting.



How do you like the RB exhaust? I've heard nothing but good things so far.

Boy, how time flies...



Well, I'm busier than ever, and circumstances are forcing me to downsize my truly massive fleet of cars.



Is anyone interested in my barn find LS?



Pics are a little dated. I installed the new water pump, and got a few other misc parts for it.



I got capped on the number of pics I could post, so there are a few more here: http://ss.vix.com/~corey/rx7ls/
