Cheers to all:
like the topic says, While I'm new to the forum I'm hardly a "new-b" to our cars and our sick "almost socially awckward" way of life. I currently live in Fayetteville, North Carolina by way of Puerto Rico. I run a very small operation... more like a garage full of every rotary tool ever made or locally manufactured... out of my home in my spare time. I am serving my 15th year in the U.S. Army and as I type I find myself on yet another deployment
but this allows for many ideas on my free time to apply on my cars when i return. Speaking of cars the latest project in my garage is this:
1982 RX-7 with a 12a peripheral ported intake by Boris Rojas (Delirium Racing) usual oil mods, lightened/pinned rotors, Pinned housings, ported exhaust by "me" 2 stage Nitrous system direct port "wet" 250 shot total. Missing parts were a decent intake (its fuel injected).. but that was just solved 3 days ago I purchased a set of blank runners from Xtreme rotaries which I will machine down to match my P-port sleeves and drill out the injector holes right where I need them as well as the 4 nozzles for the NOS system. BUT..... I still have 7 months left in the Afghanistan dirt before I can touch that manifold. dudes other than that.... I look forward to taking in some knowledge from all here as there is always something to be learned no matter how long youve been in this game.

here is a shot of the car with the old throttle body on it... thing was garbage for my purpose so out it went. The radiator has since been replaced with an aluminum Rad. and i welded -20AN bungs on the new one. feel free to give me your opinions.[attachment=46036:102_2228.JPG][attachment=46037:102_2229.JPG][attachment=46038:102_2230.JPG]
