Okay, a little back story. About a year ago I got my hands on about $5000 to be put onto a car. I had a choice between a SR20DET powered 240sx or a 91 Turbo II Rx-7.



The SR20DET was bone stock, crappy interior, and exterior. Selling for $5000. The tie-rods were f'ed up and a couple of dents here and there.



The rx-7 had a koyo radiator, FMIC, T3/T4 turbo, Greddy E-manage, 3" Greddy Exhaust and was putting down 300rwhp. the exterior was this BEAUTIFUL silver paint, the interior was horrendous though.



So I had to choose. The rx-7 had a bunch of bushings that needed replacing. So anyway, I come down to it, and I choose the pistons over the rotaries simply because I knew so much more about piston engines and I didn't have any time to worry about something going wrong on me wtih the Rotaries. That was my faulting right there. Before these cars, I had owned an MR2. Mind you, I'm 18, but very wise for my age, and quite the modest person also. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/tongue.png



So I picked up the Imitation Silvia. 1 year and 10,000 miles later I'm sitting here. My body work is about to be finished all for free by the by, and interior is going to get a nice steam cleaning. Going to fix the A/C and then put the thing on sale. Where I live I can sucker some fools into buying it for about $9000. So far I've put a FMIC, 3" straight through exhaust, intake, MBC set at 10psi, Z32 fuel filter, and a couple of other things.



So what I've been planning is to buy a nice stock 91 RX-7 turbo II around $2k hopefully and put in another 2-3k, make it bust out 280-300rwhp, throw some coilovers on there and rebuild it and make it even more bulletproof than the FC already is.



So anyway, hey everyone, newbie here. How do I make a 400hp monster? How does a rotary work? Vin Diesel used NAWZ with his RX-7 can I do that to my turbo car too? I need to find a cheap body kit, anybody want to help me? I cut my springs the other day and now the ride is bouncing, what is the problem?



Had to get those out. Okay if you got this far, you are already a true hero.

by god man, you shoulda got the 7, and please dont cut your springs or put nitrous in the 7. also dont settle for cheap anything on a 7 your just gonna look stupid and your car is gonna break faster. sorry to look like a dick and dont get me wrong i'm not and this forum isnt composed of dicks either, just helping you out. also with a t2 you might want to settle for a good 285 or so as your goal for hp, a lot more reasonable on your part. and just so you know eric happy meal sucks pee pee, but other then that, welcome to the forum and good luck.

I think he was joking about that...



Welcome to the forum. And don't worry, I'll be gentle for your first time.

hey, welcome to nopistons..... one suggestion, no n2o

I dont know why everybody hates N20 so much. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif



It works well with rotories, ask judge ITO...

I just assume that if it's gonna be a streetcar, force induction and n2o will not be good for a rotary.... i dunno, i'm probably wrong

Willkommen!

Welcome!



How does a rotary work. Two oddly shaped triangles spin to the left in a housing, and goes Zoom Zoom Zoom. Or does it spin to the right. Bah, I forget. Ha!



Welcome to the forum.

Wow... so... i guess sarcasm isn't taken well here? ... crazies all of ye!
