nice work bobby, will this beast be at the MD meet/cookout?

yes.

Nice work! Nice lift too, makes me want one...

Wow Bobby looks great. The engine bay looks mean.



VIDEO!! VIDEO!! VIDEO!! VIDEO!! VIDEO!! VIDEO!!

wait until you see it with all the pipes and hoses on there. It looks way better.



If all goes according to plan she wills tart tonight.

GOOD LUCK!! (again https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR )

She runs!





Got out the eather bunny, started right up after adjusting the crank angle sensor.





I shut it right off because i need to hook up the exhaust now, it was billowing white clouds of smoke everywhere...

Hi.

What clutch set up are you gonna use?

ACT single disc. Sintered Iron with double xtreme pressureplate. It's going to suck lol...



I am looking for a multi disc clutch setup that will work with the input shaft I have, but that is not a main concern.



The fucker is going to shock some drivetrain parts...

I used McLeod dual disc on my Liberty Air shifter.

How many horsepower do you have?



I have a Pro-Import (full-tube frame) 94' RX-7 Drag car...

This is my Drag car...

I dont know yet. We are shooting for 700 on racegas...



My buddy has a liberty. He uses a slipper clutch though..

You're going to fly with that horsepower. I recommend to you that put a good one parachute!

VIDS

We will see if it runs first!! Hopefully I will need one!!



Your car looks great braco, where are you located? engine spec?

Im from Puerto Rico. This car is a "family project" between my father my two brothers and me. It uses a 13B RE (cosmo) engine (overlap & exhaust). Single Turbo by Garrett. Alcohol (methanol) controlled by Microtech LTX-12 (we're supported directly by Jon Blanch from MicrotechGlobal- RX Engineering, Australia). Liberty air shifter, MSD, etc etc...Our best ET: 7.54@180mph with 750 horsepower (to the wheel) Now we're testing some new stuff and it's working great. Now we got 890 hp @ 40 psi and we hope to run low 7.3's or high 7.2's at over 188mph. All this without nitrous.

weight?

I would guess he is around 2000 maybe less

yeah thats about what i figured with that et

1,980 with driver.



NHRA requires a min. weight of 1950 for ProImport Class (4 cylinders & 2 rotor engines)

DAMMIT bobby. I will have to come up to the meet just too see your FD.



i may just give in and go up there.

who said you were invited?!



lol...



took it down the street today, runs good, trans bangs hard lol...

Did street tunning tonight.



started building boost at 2900.



8lbs by 3500 and 11 by a little under 4k. **** everybody who said it wouldnt spool!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



The car is interesting to drive. You have to shift the tranny super fast (even if you arent clutching fast) to get it to go into gear correctly.



The car is LOUD!! Like way too loud. I am going to have to get some new resonators, and junk the PFS muffler. I will run an eletric cutout on the DP when i want to be loud.



I am going to put the carpet back in the car. Too hot and loud without it. I need to make a shifterboot as well.



it is stronger at 10lbs of boost then my t04s at 16lbs... that says somethin right there..

Also, thanks to demetrius for all his help building/porting, wiring, and tunning this POS!

Wow! It's been a long time!!!

Eso es asi, la "Quiles Turbo". Fue perdida total en un aparatoso accidente conducida por David "Turbo" Fernandez. Ahora contamos con el RX7 full-chassis que segun el caballaje que tenemos esperamos correr low 7.3's o high 7.2's Cualquier info estamos a la orden!

rfreeman27

Took it for a 30 min drive tonight, zero issues. Even cools well.





New pics tomorrow and mabye a short vid clip...

Sweet! good to hear!



the day after I got mine running, I headed to the mountains for a nice sunday drive. On the way home, I realized I didn't have a single tool. Who said rotaries weren't reliable......(when built/maintained properly)???

I have to at least have a pair of channel locks, My hood release lever is busted https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

UPDATES!!! more pics and a video if possible

Well done rfreeman27. I've read all 10 pages and see that you've worked really hard. "Now the fun begins" https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/bigthumb.gif
